Today's episode focuses on two different surgical techniques for management of complex rotator cuff injuries: (1) The biceps SMASH technique for augmentation of a repairable rotator cuff tear. (2) The subacromial balloon spacer – InSpace by Stryker – to manage irreparable rotator cuff tears. We are joined today by two distinguished guests:<br/><br/>Dr. Nikhil Verma is the Director of the Sports Medicine Division and the Sports Medicine Fellowship at Rush , head team physician for the Chicago White Sox and team physician for the Chicago Bulls . He will be discussing use of the Stryker InSpace balloon implant to treat irreparable posterosuperior rotator cuff tears.<br/><br/>Dr. John Tokish is the President of the Arthroscopy Association of North America and Director of the Sports Medicine Fellowship at Mayo Clinic in Arizona . Dr. Tokish will be speaking about the “biceps smash technique” — using long head of biceps tendon autograft to biologically augment rotator cuff repair.
