Video Transcription

Video Summary

In this video transcript, two surgeons discuss a complex case of a 13-year-old girl with recurrent shoulder dislocations. The patient had been to the emergency room multiple times and was on narcotics for pain. The surgeons discuss various treatment options and present a surgical technique they used to stabilize the shoulder. They also discuss the challenges they faced, including the presence of spasms and the possibility of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome. The surgeons highlight the importance of individualizing treatment and the need for ongoing research in these cases. While the outcome of the surgery is not mentioned in the transcript, the surgeons express concern about the patient's long-term prognosis and discuss potential future interventions, such as fusion or reverse shoulder arthroplasty. The surgeons mention that they have had success with similar cases involving Ehlers-Danlos syndrome in the past.
