from Mr Sanjeev Anand - In an ACL-deficient knee, the knee can pivot when giving valgus stress against a post and reduce medial joint access for any meniscus work. Putting a sandbag under the opposite hip will stop that from happening.

from Mr Nicolaou - If you are using a femoral socket and tensioning through the femur for Paediatric MPFL recon - angling your drill 15-20 degrees distal and anterior from Schottle's point prevents physeal damage, notch encroachment and articular injury.

from our Vice President Mr Ali - When assessing a patient with patella instability always think generally (ligamentous laxity); regionally (rotational and alignment profile); and locally (patella height and tracking), as all of these will influence your management.
Do you treat Athletes? Do you know the implications of RED-S? If not, join us at the BOSTAA annual conference 7th July Westminster Hall to hear all about it.
Will you be attending the London Knee Meeting in October 2023?! Our past president, Prof Haddad, our current president, Prof Kader, along with members of our exec committee and board are on the faculty! Don’t miss out!
