At the completion of this course, the participant will 1) learn how and where different surgeons select and place suture anchors; 2) observe the preferred plan different surgeons use to pass the suture through a cuff tear; 3) learn rationale and techniques for single row and double row cuff repair; 4) learn the sliding and non-sliding knots preferred by these surgeons; 5) observe the similarities and differences of each surgeon’s preferred technique that you can incorporate into "your" technique.

*This is a model demonstration course and not a "hands-on" lab course.

At the completion of this course, the participant will 1) have a clear understanding of the benefits and risks of elbow arthroscopy; 2) have a "blue print" of how to progress safely to more complicated arthroscopic procedures; 3) have a clear understanding of the more advanced solutions available for the elbow.

At the completion of this course, the participant will 1) understand the diagnostic evaluation methods of the acute and chronic multiple ligament injured knee, and its associated pathology; 2) learn the indications for surgical and non surgical treatment, surgical timing, and graft selection in the treatment of multiple ligament injured knee; 3) understand the surgical techniques for treating the multiple ligament injured knee (ACL PCL medial side; ACL PCL lateral side; global laxity).

At the completion of this course, the participant will 1) be able to understand the updated presentation, workup, indications, approaches and surgical techniques to treating focal articular cartilage defects in the knee; 2) discuss current treatment methods and outcome data including microfracture, osteochondral transplantation, autologous chondrocyte implantation and complex concomitant procedures; 3) review new methods and novel resurfacing treatments including the use of scaffolds, selective chondrocyte expansion and next generation cell-based implantation techniques; 4) understand current concepts, scientific trends and future projects on the horizon including state of the art practical clinical guidelines and algorithms and illustrative case presentations and discussion.

At the completion of this course, the participant will 1) have an understanding of the anatomy of the proximal biceps tendon (long head) including SLAP lesions, and the range of pathologic conditions that are found in this region; 2) understand the available diagnostic clinical and imaging tests for these conditions and their relative reliability; 3) have an understanding of the surgical procedures applicable to the treatment of proximal biceps lesions (including SLAP tears).
