Episode 1 - ACL Reconstruction: Past, Present and Future In this inaugural episode, Dr. Stephen Nicholas from The Nicholas Institute of Sports Medicine and Athletic Trauma joins host Tim Tyler to provide a comprehensive overview of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction surgery.

Dr. Nicholas shares his unique perspective as the son of pioneering orthopedic surgeon Dr. James A. Nicholas, walking through the evolution of ACL procedures from the extra-articular techniques of the past to today's anatomic, arthroscopic reconstructions using autografts like bone-tendon-bone and hamstring tendons.

Key topics discussed include:

• Historical context of early ACL repair attempts
• Graft selection criteria (bone-tendon-bone, hamstring, quadriceps)
• Surgical techniques for graft harvesting, drilling sockets, graft fixation
• Graft tensioning protocols
• Rehabilitation considerations like bracing, weightbearing, prehab
• Preventing and managing common complications
• The role of allografts and revision ACL surgeries
• Emerging technologies on the horizon like biologics

Whether you're a sports medicine physician, physiotherapist or athletic trainer, this in-depth episode provides invaluable insights into optimizing ACL reconstruction outcomes from one of the world's foremost experts in the field.
