Beware of initial remote consultations: “the special relationship giving rise to a duty of care may exist even in the absence of any meeting between the physician and the patient where the physician performs specific services for the benefit of the patient."


We wish our colleagues and patients a Merry Christmas and a happy and healthy New Year.

In my experience (30+ years of doing knee surgery) most degenerate menisci and post-meniscectomy knees are not associated with SIFK. SIFK is spontaneous focal subchondral metabolic (neurovascular) issue of uncertain origin, often recurrent and migratory. Needs more work!

Any suggestions re optimal VTE prophylaxis following a TKR for patients with a history of DVT/PE (re balance: postop bleeding vs adequate short term prophylaxis). What works best and for how long?


It's a matter of quality, not quantity! That's the gist of a new Israeli study that shows that unvaccinated people with a prior SARS-CoV-2 infection create antibodies that are more effective in the long run compared with others who were vaccinated but never infected.
