Scott A. Rodeo – författare

Scott Rodeo, a clinician-scientist at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York, NY, as well as a team physician for the 2004 and 2008 US Olympic teams, explores the future trends of sports medicine, with the help of more than two dozen other experts in the field. These experts weigh in on the leading topics of Tissue Engineering Approaches to Ligament Graft Fixation, Meniscus Replacement Using Synthetic Materials, New Techniques in Allograft Processing and Preservation, Platelet-Rich Plasma for Percutaneous Treatment of Tendon and Muscle Injury, Emerging Concepts in Diagnosis and Management of Concussion, New Techniques in Articular Cartilage Imaging, New Trends in Diagnosis and Management of Athletic Pubalgia and Sports Hernia, Advances in Rehab/Performance Training, Current Status and Potential for Primary ACL Repair, Surgical Navigation in Knee Ligament Reconstruction, Emerging Options for Treatment of Articular Cartilage Injury in the Athlete, Growth Factors for Rotator Cuff Repair, and Stem Cells for Treatment of Muscle Injury.

This book presents the evidence related to the use of injectable biologics to provide faster and better healing for musculoskeletal lesions and conditions. The authors discuss approaches, such as blood derivatives and cell concentrates, applied to lesions of muscles, ligaments, tendons, bones, meniscus and cartilage, as well as osteoarthritis. Chapters are written by some of the most influential opinion leaders in the field, with up-to-date review of the current literature, where the authors explore both the potential and the limitations of these minimally invasive and promising treatments.The first section is devoted to the formulations and rationale for the use of injectable orthobiologics, while the second section reviews current treatment methods applied to specific joints and pathologies – ranging from tendinopathies through non-unions to articular degenerative processes – as well as the results of these treatment approaches. The third section explores future perspectives, such as pluripotent stem cells, gene therapy, and the stimulation of intrinsic stromal cell niches.Appealing to a broad readership, this book will be of interest to both laboratory research scientists and clinicians, including orthopedists, sports physicians, physiatrists, and regenerative medicine experts.

This major reference works brings together the current state of the art for joint preservation surgery of the knee, including arthroscopic and open procedures. Generously illustrated with radiographs and intraoperative photos, it presents the latest tips and techniques, providing the knee surgeon with the most up-to-date information for precise preparation and decision-making in this rapidly evolving area. This comprehensive guide is divided into ten thematic sections covering clinical evaluation; fundamentals of arthroscopic and open approaches; basic and advanced arthroscopic procedures; surgical management of meniscal disorders; management of ACL injuries; approaches to complex and multi-ligamentous injuries; limb malalignment; management of cartilage and subchondral bone; patellofemoral and extensor mechanism disorders; and rehabilitation and return to play considerations. Written by experts in the field, Knee Arthroscopy and Knee Preservation Surgery will be a highly valued resource for orthopedic and sports medicine surgeons, residents and fellows.
