For young athletes who struggle with repeated shoulder dislocations, picking the right surgery early on can make a big difference down the road. A new long-term study from Dr. Okoroha’s colleagues compared two common procedures...
Recurrent anterior shoulder instability can be a persistent challenge for athletes and active individuals. While the isolated arthroscopic Bankart (IAB) repair has been a widely used option, the open Latarjet procedure (OLP) has gained recognition for its lower recurrence rates.
Hip pain can be life-altering, but surgery often brings relief—especially the first time around. New research from Dr. Okoroha’s colleagues sheds light on the difference in outcomes between primary (first-time) and revision (repeat) hip arthroscopic surgeries.
For athletes facing knee injuries, cartilage damage can be one of the toughest setbacks. But new research offers real hope. Thanks to advances in surgical techniques, many athletes are getting back on the field-or court-faster and stronger than before.
