IOMS Podcast

Dr. LaPorta and Dr. Rodriguez discuss tibial cortical transverse distraction and its role in perfusion of the limb. Dr. LaPorta shares his experience with the technique and considerations with external fixation. They also discuss tips, pearls and pitfalls and future directions this technique has in orthoplastic surgery. 

Dr. Suhail Masadeh and Dr. Rodriguez-Collazo - Principles (Tips & Pearls) in Flap Reconstruction in the Lower Limb. 
Episode discussing various flaps, patient selection, optimizing patients with pre-op, intra-op, and post-operative considerations.
Review of adipofascial, fasciocutaneous, and muscle flaps with and without external fixation, negative pressure wound therapy, nutritional aspects, and cell therapy.

Discussion with Dr. Narendra Patel about calcaneal fracture surgical treatment and soft tissue management. 

This episode discusses optimizing nutrition preoperatively and postoperatively and the role it plays with cell therapy in limb reconstruction.
