If you are an orthopedic surgeon, it is only a matter of time before you will encounter a challenging scenario in the operating room, complex patient situation, or be faced down by a complication. The aim of this instructional course lecture is to provide education regarding some of the more common complexities, as well as more extraneous complications and scenarios that a sports medicine knee surgeon may encounter. A panel for four complex knee surgeons from academic institutions will present cases in which a complexity or a complication significantly impacted their routine of patient care. They will discuss the measures taken to rectify the problem, in addition to the values they took from their case and how it impacted their future approach to prevention and mitigation of such instances. Topics covered will include fracture and hardware failures due to implants, graft harvest, and/or tunnel malposition in ACL reconstruction, neurologic injury in the setting of meniscus repair and multiligamentous knee injuries, fracture, and failure perioperatively in the setting of osteotomies around the knee, amongst others. Case examples will include those ranging from straight forward primary ACL reconstructions to more complex osteotomies and reconstructions around the knee. Time will be given for panel discussion as well as audience interaction to fully dissect each case from multiple perspectives and experiences.
