Dr. Aaron Huser from Washington University in St. Louis joins us to discuss his recent article on the 2-year outcomes of a surgical technique for treating knee flexion contracture in patients with arthrogryposis. This episode also includes a surprise drop-in from Dr. Perry Schoenecker.

We also highlight recent studies on arthrogryposis, radiolucent lesions in children with osteogenesis imperfecta, and rod deformation after cutting.

Your hosts are Tyler McDonald (University of South Alabama), Craig Louer (Vanderbilt), Carter Clement (Manning Family Children's Hospital in New Orleans), and Will Morris (Texas Scottish Rite in Dallas).

Music by A. A. Aalto.
