Dr Henry Ellis from TSRH joins the show to discuss his research on the functional outcomes of open vs. arthroscopic cam resection. Highlights from the lightning round include the impacts of seemingly benign parts of care like saw blades/Dermabond/Pavlik harnesses, the recovery process after femoral flex nails, and more. Your hosts are Carter Clement from Children’s Hospital of New Orleans, Julia Sanders from Children’s Hospital Colorado, Craig Louer from Vanderbilt, and Josh Holt from University of Iowa. This episode is sponsored by Nuvasive. Music by A. A. Alto.
