Saving hips, one scope at a time. In this case the bump along the femoral head and neck is called a cam lesion and leads to labrum tearing and early osteoarthritis. Dr. Beamer repaired the patients labrum and recontoured the proximal femur to make the head round, which is how it should be, so it no longer impinges in flexion. This will decrease the pain and long term wear and tear in her hip socket.

I did a really fun case today with BodyCad, utilizing patient specific instrumentation, guides, and custom plate designed precisely for my patient to perform a lateral opening wedge distal femoral osteotomy along with osteochondral allografts to the trochlea and lateral femoral condyle. I have always felt that we spend so much time planning these osteotomies only to then judge our correction with a bovie cord or long rod and multiple C-arm shots, having to deal with parallax, the rod or cord moving, and the overall lack of precision. BodyCad changes that and, man, was it a game changer!!! No guess work, no wasted time, just follow the plan and get the result! Also, not having to measure your screws saves an incredible amount of time. This is the orthopedic innovation

we need!

Recent hip arthroscopy case on a young man with cam impingement. Around the time of adolescence a stress response at the growth plate of the proximal femur leads to excessive bone formation which grinds on the cartilage and tears the labrum which is the gasket around the hip joint. During hip arthroscopy I repair the labrum, treat the cartilage injury, and remove the impingement to stop the injury to the hip. This is a hip preservation procedure in hopes of staving off a hip replacement someday. In this particular case I harvested some of his own cartilage from the displaced flap of cartilage in his hip joint and grafted it back into the defect with cartilage matrix to promote cartilage regrowth.

Did a cool case on a collegiate volleyball player yesterday. After years of jumping and blocking she developed a full thickness cartilage pot hole on her femur under her kneecap with injury to the underlying bone. She wanted the quickest return to play, so osteochondral allograft (given leason size - 2 cm diameter) was the best option. This procedure takes fresh bone and cartilage from a donor that is sized matched to the patient and resurfaces a pothole in the cartilage by taking bone and cartilage from the donor and creating a socket and the patient's knee and plugging the bone and cartilage into their knee and allowing it to heal in. The nice thing about it is that you have good cartilage from the get-go. The trochlea, or groove on the front of the femur, is always hard to treat. You need to select a graft that not only matches the patient's size, but also has a similarly shaped trochlear groove. I'd say this match was perfect 👌
