General Information

Start every orthopaedic procedure with a safe surgical exposure.

Area of Focus: Hip, Knee & Lower Extremity and Resident Information

Observe detailed demonstrations of 30 surgical exposures covering a variety of adult reconstruction techniques, trauma-oriented fixation techniques, and sports medicine repairs. Review the surgical anatomy, necessary equipment, instrumentation, patient positioning techniques, and surgical steps to safely gain adequate exposure of the knee. Learn to locate, visualize, isolate, tag, retract, and protect the neurovascular structures encountered with each surgical exposure of the knee. Identify and evaluate the technical challenges, potential complications, and pitfalls for each exposure presented.

Gain knowledge from expert surgeons—including Robert LaPrade, MD, PhD; Leo Whiteside, MD; Walter Virkus, MD; George John Haidukewych, MD; Alfred Tria, MD—offering detailed demonstrations, tips, and pitfalls for each exposure.

Successful completion of this independent study program provides you with the knowledge to:

Position a patient properly for each surgical exposure of the knee for arthroplasty, meniscal repair, graft harvesting, wedge varus producing osteotomies, and open reduction internal fixation.

Recognize and assess the indications, contraindications, advantages, disadvantages, and alternatives for each surgical exposure.

Describe the architecture of the knee including the osseous, ligamentous, neurologic, vascular, and muscular anatomy.

Apply techniques for safe and effective placement of retractors.

Evaluate how to safely expose the knee by means of superficial and deep dissection.

Locate, visualize, isolate, tag, retract, and protect the neurovascular structures encountered with each surgical exposure of the knee.

Identify and evaluate the technical challenges, potential complications, and pitfalls for each exposure presented.

Detailed footage includes surgical exposures of the knee for:

Arthroplasty

Meniscal repair

Graft harvesting

Wedge varus producing osteotomies

Open reduction internal fixation
