This section offers replays of the PCO course sessions, interviews with specialists, clinical case studies, short videos focused on advanced techniques, and webinars. A valuable hub for learning and staying updated on key practices.
Clinical case
A 57-year-old man with a history of hypertension and a right hip replacement in 1993 presents with worsening right hip pain over 10 years. He uses one cane, has a 3 cm leg length discrepancy, and a soft mass in the groin. What are your diagnostic hypotheses?
Learn the technique
Learn the technique of the ACL reconstruction with a semi-tendinosus left attached and remnant preservation. This technique is easy to perform and allows to skip the tibial primary fixation phase and preserves all the vacularisation of the remnant.
Learn the technique
Etienne Cavaignac and Grégoire Laumond present their straightforward method for performing an ST4 short graft. This technique is both simple and effective, requiring no complex tools or specialized instruments. Perfect for anyone looking to master ACL reconstruction with ease!
Learn the technique
Learn how to perform a one-stage ACL revision combined with lateral tenodesis using the IT band, specifically for cases where the tibial tunnel is too anterior in a semi-anatomic position.
