It's time to unveil one of my labors of ❤️! Astrid is my world. I want her to live forever, even in the hearts of those who never met her. Perhaps this book will inspire you to adopt a rescue pet. Perhaps you just like bones. Or dogs. Or both!

@ojedathies @rkh_md @traumaticum @generalorthomd @drsebheaven @DrBhavinJadav @aschwartz45 @jointdocShields @orthotraumamd Ughh. They are anathema at my place too

@drsebheaven @traumaticum @DrBhavinJadav @aschwartz45 @rkh_md @jointdocShields @orthotraumamd I’ve never seen or used it, but a quick glance at the papers while I’m out walking my dog tells me that this nail is solid, which means it’ll probably be interesting to remove.

This is a picture from that article and it looks like the same thing

@DrJN_SportsMed I’m so sorry this happened to you. 😢

[Yelena Bogdan, MD, FACS, FAAOS @InvictaOrtho]

@solimanibra92 @traumaticum @Gnomelover1970 @Davembmd @bonesmith_ @centerofhip @anklefootmd I think just cut the nail at the fx site, it’s staring at you

[Yelena Bogdan, MD, FACS, FAAOS @InvictaOrtho]

@traumaticum @sancleracot @orthotraumamd @Gnomelover1970 I’m a little concerned about your idea of fun🤣

@solimanibra92 @bonesmith_ @traumaticum @centerofhip @TJimulia @neilorpen @sportsdoc2016 @ojedathies @itius DHS is weightbearing.

@txsportsdoc I am no longer an aaos social media ambassador but will pass on

@medflutter_ @sportsdoc2016 @Davembmd @traumaticum @orthotraumamd BHN theory posits that all nonunion problems are stability problems. Therefore, increasing stability will heal pretty much every non-union. This is a minimally invasive increase in stability. I replied to somebody else with a paper on percutaneous strain reduction screws

There are others, search for “percutaneous strain reduction screws” on pubmed

@solimanibra92 @bonesmith_ @eric_novack @neilorpen @sportsdoc2016 @traumaticum @txsportsdoc The two reasons to fix a patella are prevention of posttraumatic arthritis, and preservation of knee extension. If his knee doesn’t move at all and it is fixed in extension and he is walking, neither of those two factors seem to apply. We treat patients, not x-rays…

@traumaticum @solimanibra92 @Gnomelover1970 @bonesmith_ @centerofhip @sportsdoc2016 I like how we both used red and both pointed to pretty much the same place😆

[Yelena Bogdan, MD, FACS, FAAOS @InvictaOrtho]

@solimanibra92 @traumaticum @Gnomelover1970 @bonesmith_ @centerofhip @sportsdoc2016 Red mark

[Yelena Bogdan, MD, FACS, FAAOS @InvictaOrtho]

@solimanibra92 @DrShivabs @traumaticum @Gnomelover1970 @bonesmith_ @centerofhip @sportsdoc2016 Absolutely not. You can do short for an IT but this is not just an IT. multiple studies (clinical and biomechanical) show a limit of 3cm extension (my personal is 2.5cm generally) below the lesser. This is far more than that.

The hardest working ⁦@AAOS1⁩ committee! (But of course I’m biased)❤️

[Yelena Bogdan, MD, FACS, FAAOS @InvictaOrtho]

@generalorthomd Yup my hospital requires both bls and acls.
I think it’s ridiculous. Bls sure, just for “Good Samaritan” purposes in real life. But there is no scenario in a hospital where an ortho attending is, or should be, doing acls.

[Yelena Bogdan, MD, FACS, FAAOS @InvictaOrtho]

@sportsdoc2016 @traumaticum @orthotraumamd Make sure you have a good start point and that the nail isn’t buried too deep https://t.co/GCfWCEdrjV
