The video depicts the materials and steps for applying negative pressure wound therapy. The clinical case involves a patient who had sustained a thigh Morel-Lavallee lesion that developed overlying skin necrosis and drainage that was treated with surgical debridement and the application of negative pressure wound therapy.

Distal femur fractures are common in the elderly population. The risk of sustaining a distal femur fracture is increased with the presence of total knee arthroplasty components. Fixation with a retrograde intramedullary nail is a viable option for treatment of these injuries. This case-based video demonstrates the preoperative planning, techniques, and potential technical pitfalls to performing a retrograde intramedullary nail through a total knee arthroplasty in patients with a distal femur fracture.

Distal femur fractures are often treated with laterally based plate constructs. The use of medial plates is less common because of the concern for the proximity to vascular structures. With a solid understanding of the anatomy, the technique can be used more frequently to optimize fixation in medial distal femur fractures and osteoporotic, comminuted, bone loss, and periprosthetic fractures. This video demonstrates a safe technique for the medial submuscular plating of a distal femur fracture. The video covers indications for surgery and provides detailed anatomy of the structures at risk, especially the superficial femoral artery system.

This video discusses treatment of pediatric femur fractures using 90-90 traction, followed by delayed spica casting. This study details the treatment of a 2-year-old girl with a subtrochanteric femur fracture featuring a 4-cm acute shortening and severe malalignment. The patient was placed in 90-90 traction in the operative setting. When adequate callous was observed radiographically, the patient was treated with a spica cast in the hospital on day 16. TPI-1 mouse She was noted to have obtained uneventful healing of the fracture with no functional deficits, as detailed during serial office visits.

These injuries can be a significant cause of morbidity and mortality and are frequently associated with additional injuries. Hemorrhage and resultant hemodynamic instability are often associated with high-energy injuries and require prompt management. Circumferential pelvic antishock sheeting is an effective and readily available tool for reducing pelvic volume at the accident scene or in the emergency department, while still allowing access to the abdomen and lower extremities for ongoing resuscitation. This article, and the associated instructional video, reviews the indications and proper technique for placing a pelvic sheet.
The dorsal spanning wrist plate is an important tool in the treatment of comminuted, intra-articular, and displaced distal radius fractures (OTA/AO C3). The dorsal spanning plate allows for secondary bone healing in patients when it is not possible to achieve a stable reduction through a standard plate due to polytrauma, fracture morphology, degree of comminution, and/or poor native bone biology.

Distal radius fractures are one of the most common fractures seen in orthopaedics. These fractures may be treated surgically or conservatively depending on patient-related and radiographic factors. Displaced fractures should be reduced in the acute setting to better align the fracture fragments and a splint applied to hold the fracture in this position. Fractures that are acceptably reduced may be treated conservatively with casting and close radiographic follow-up to ensure maintained alignment. In this video, we describe our technique for closed reduction of distal radius fractures and review important factors that guide treatment.

Key procedure points include complete triceps mobilization for adequate excursion to facilitate repair, identification of the ulnar nerve, isolation and sharp debridement of torn tissue to healthy tendon, thorough debridement of the olecranon reattachment site, suture construct, and order of fixation to optimize tendon-bone apposition.
Treatment principles in the management of radial shaft fractures, congruent with all fracture care, are to restore anatomy and function of the limb. Radial shaft fractures are unique in that preserving the anatomic bow of the radius, which allows for its rotation around the ulna during pronation and supination, is essential for proper function. The 2 main approaches for exposure of the proximal or middle third radial diaphyseal fractures are the volar "Henry" and the dorsal "Thompson." This article highlights the benefits of the dorsal Thompson approach, describes the key points of the operative technique, which allow for protection of the posterior interosseous nerve, and provides an overview of the measurable outcomes when using this approach. In the accompanying video, the steps of operative exposure to the proximal radial shaft with careful avoidance of the posterior interosseous nerve are demonstrated.

Elbow arthrodesis is an uncommon salvage procedure indicated for failed total elbow arthroplasty, segmental bone loss near the elbow, and severe postinfectious or posttraumatic arthritis. This video demonstrates the surgical technique for elbow arthrodesis in a patient with segmental bony defect of the ulna and postinfectious and posttraumatic elbow arthritis after a severe left arm degloving injury with Monteggia fracture dislocation and radial head fracture.

There are a variety of ways to treat chronic elbow dislocations, including repeat closed reduction and immobilization, transarticular pinning, temporary bridge plating, hinged or rigid external fixation, and internal fixator application. Although each have distinct advantages and disadvantages, avoiding recurrent instability is critical. The internal-fixator is a relatively new option to maintain a stable, concentric reduction and facilitate early range of motion. This article and accompanying video describe the surgical technique of using an internal joint stabilizer for treatment of a chronically unstable ulnohumeral joint.
