The Athlete's Shoulder: Leading Edge Surgical Repair
For UW Medicine physicians Dr. Christopher Wahl and Dr. Winston Warme, it’s the time they spend in the lab that truly makes a difference to their patients. Wahl and Warme develop innovative new surgical procedures to help their patients heal quickly and with enough mobility to continue their active lifestyles after surgery. Go inside the surgery suite as Dr. Wahl, Huskies team physician and orthopaedic surgeon at UW Sports Medicine Clinic, treats a professional motocross racer with a DAISY graft to repair her repeatedly dislocated shoulder. Follow along as Dr. Warme, an orthopaedic surgeon at UW Medical Center’s Bone and Joint Surgery Center, uses new techniques to help two very active athletes with broken collarbones get back in the game.
