Description
This VTT presents a soft tissue session organized by BASK as part of a virtual instructional course that replaces a live BOA meeting. The session features four prominent speakers addressing current topics in orthopaedics related to knee surgery, particularly focusing on soft tissue injuries.
Andrew Porteous introduces the session, outlining the presentations to come. The first speaker, Alex Dodds, a Consultant Orthopaedic Surgeon, will provide an up-to-date review of evidence regarding ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) injuries.
The second speaker is James Murray, who will share the latest insights on meniscal tears and their treatments, drawing from his experience with the BASK Meniscal Working Group.
Tim Spalding is the third speaker, known for his contributions to ACL injury prevention, an area that has garnered significant interest and research lately.
Finally, Kash Akhtar will discuss ACL rehabilitation, focusing on the crucial recovery goals that physicians should consider before patients return to athletic activities.
The session aims to enhance attendees' knowledge and practices in managing knee injuries, especially ACL and meniscal issues, within a preventative and rehabilitative framework.
