@YahooSports Acute major ACL tears are often associated with several common things: audible “pop”, rapid effusion ( because of intra-articular blerd), and most importantly MRI evidence of condylar bone marrow oedema (because of contre coup injury), with or without meniscal tear.

@hjluks No brainer: “review symptoms, discuss options, give time, avoid but not dismiss surgery.” (based on my own 40 years of experience).

GLP1 medications and osteoarthritis.
They are making a difference

I don’t think people realize the impact of TXA on high blood loss high risk operations…
The road has existed for 50+ years and is cheap but it’s usage is a relatively new phenomenon that has dramatically increased for the last 10 to 15 years

It’s cheap. It’s effective and hasn’t been pillaged by the bad actors in healthcare.

If I was to list the things in my life that I love

My wife and my children are first
My country is next
TXA is third and depending on how annoyed I am with the US government, it sometimes moves to second.

Finally we found a good home for the @OPTIKNEE SR on structural and molecular biomarker outcomes after ACL tears in @JOSPT! We've made this infographic to sum up the main messages.

It's always the same story... Felt a pop, and had some pain, the pain got much worse a few days later.
Now they're miserable.

Beware of initial remote consultations: “the special relationship giving rise to a duty of care may exist even in the absence of any meeting between the physician and the patient where the physician performs specific services for the benefit of the patient."

We wish our colleagues and patients a Merry Christmas and a happy and healthy New Year.

Good surgeons know when to operate
Better surgeons know how to operate
Excellent surgeons know when not to operate.

Nice touch and connection with Roman past.

@ClementsCharl96 In my experience (30+ years of doing knee surgery) most degenerate menisci and post-meniscectomy knees are not associated with SIFK. SIFK is spontaneous focal subchondral metabolic (neurovascular) issue of uncertain origin, often recurrent and migratory. Needs more work!
