Dr. Gregory DiFelice, an orthopedic surgeon from the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York City, recently spoke to our residents and faculty about ACL Primary Repair. His talk, titled "ACL Primary Repair: Why we don't, and why you should", was both informative and thought-provoking.
Dr. DiFelice is well-known in the field of sports medicine and has been involved in the treatment of ACL injuries for many years. During his presentation, he shared his experience and knowledge on the subject, challenging some of the conventional wisdom around ACL reconstruction.
One of the key takeaways from Dr. DiFelice's talk was that ACL Primary Repair, a procedure that aims to preserve the original ACL tissue rather than replacing it, is a viable option for some patients. He argued that this approach can be effective in certain cases, and that it offers several advantages over traditional ACL reconstruction.
Dr. DiFelice's talk was well-received by our residents and faculty, and we appreciate the time and effort he put into sharing his insights with us. His expertise and experience in the field of sports medicine are invaluable, and we are grateful for the opportunity to learn from him.
