Track: Orthopedics and Arthroscopy
Orthopedics is the branch of medicine concerned with diagnosing, treating, and preventing musculoskeletal disorders, including injuries and diseases affecting the bones, joints, muscles, ligaments, and tendons. Arthroscopy is a minimally invasive surgical technique used in orthopedics to diagnose and treat joint problems, often involving the knee, shoulder, elbow, hip, or wrist.
Key Topics and Highlights:
Arthroscopic
Techniques: Procedures that allow for the examination and treatment of joint
problems through small incisions using a camera (arthroscope) and
specialized instruments.
Knee
Arthroscopy: Commonly used to treat injuries to the meniscus, ligaments, and
cartilage, including repairs or removal of damaged tissue.
Shoulder
Arthroscopy: A minimally invasive procedure to treat rotator cuff injuries,
shoulder impingement, or labral tears by cleaning, repairing, or
reattaching tissue.
Hip
and Elbow Arthroscopy: Treatment options for joint problems such as labral tears, joint
inflammation, or cartilage damage in the hip and elbow, allowing for
reduced recovery time.
Benefits
of Arthroscopic Surgery: Reduced recovery times, smaller incisions, lower risk of infection,
and faster return to activity compared to traditional open surgeries.
Summary:
This session will focus on the key concepts and advancements
in orthopedic arthroscopy, highlighting its growing role in the diagnosis and
treatment of various joint conditions. Experts will discuss the use of
arthroscopy in knee, shoulder, hip, and elbow surgeries, emphasizing the
benefits of minimally invasive techniques. Attendees will gain insight into the
latest arthroscopic procedures for repairing damaged tissue, addressing
injuries, and enhancing recovery times. The session will also explore post-surgical
rehabilitation strategies that are critical for achieving optimal outcomes.
