Description
The VTT transcription captures a presentation by Dr. Vikas Khanduja, in which he discusses his decade-long journey in hip surgery focusing on the concept of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) and its implications for early osteoarthritis of the hip. Dr. Khanduja expresses gratitude for the opportunity to speak and addresses a technical issue at the beginning. He reflects on pivotal moments starting from a SICOT meeting in Gothenburg in 2010, where he met Professor Emmanuel Audenaert, which led to fruitful collaboration.
The presentation systematically introduces FAI, detailing its types: cam and pincer impingement, along with their anatomical implications and causes of associated pain in patients. He elaborates on surgical methods, transitioning from open dislocation strategies to arthroscopic interventions, highlighting the evolution driven by sports medicine and technological advancements like MRI.
Dr. Khanduja emphasizes the importance of accurate surgical procedures and the advantages of navigation technologies in achieving precise cam resections compared to traditional methods. Through a mix of personal anecdotes and research, he stresses the need for collaborative efforts across academia and the corporate sector to enhance treatment modalities and address the increasing prevalence of hip-related issues among young athletes.
The talk concludes by reflecting on future directions for research in joint preservation, precision surgery, and optimizing outcomes through advanced methodologies. Throughout, the presenter maintains an engaging tone, encouraging questions and discussions, underscoring collaboration's role in advancing medical practice.
