🔺CASE 89: SCR
Throwback case - Posted this on Twitter back in 2021 but somehow missed sharing it here.
This was my attempt at a Superior Capsular Reconstruction (SCR) using the TFL autograft for a massive rotator cuff tear in a 60 year old

Was this surgery justified?
May be because the patient couldn’t afford a reverse shoulder arthroplasty, and SCR offered a joint-preserving alternative with promising functional outcomes in selected cases.

Your thoughts and experiences with SCR vs RSA in similar situations?

🔺CASE 87: 2R3C3

What’s your plan when you see this on-call?

A comminuted, intra-articular distal radius fracture.
1. What’s your first thought on seeing this?
2. What surgical approach would you prefer?
3. Would you get a CT before planning?
4. What other questions would you want to ask?

Do we really need to feel intimidated, when we see something like this?

🔺⏪ CASE 14: NON-UNION

🔺⏪ to CASE 14: Presented with thigh pain and swelling 18 months post-surgery. The proximal fracture has united well, but there seems to be an issue with the distal segment.

What would be your approach in this case?
