Dr Karthik Reddy Pammi, Orthopaedic, Arthroscopy and Robotic Joint Replacement Surgeon in Chennai, participated as faculty at the 2nd KAC Arthroplasty Course, contributing to academic discussions on shoulder arthroplasty, reverse shoulder replacement and complex joint replacement procedures.
The KAC Arthroplasty Course brought together experienced orthopaedic surgeons and faculty for academic discussions, surgical demonstrations and the exchange of knowledge on evolving approaches in arthroplasty.
Dr Karthik Reddy Pammi Discusses Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty
As part of the scientific programme, Dr Karthik Reddy Pammi spoke on the biomechanics of Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty, with a specific focus on medialisation versus lateralisation.
Biomechanics plays an important role in Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty. Understanding the principles behind medialisation and lateralisation helps surgeons assess implant positioning and surgical strategies according to individual patient and clinical considerations.
The session provided an opportunity to discuss the biomechanical principles that influence reverse shoulder replacementand contemporary approaches to shoulder arthroplasty.
Live Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty for a Complex Proximal Humerus Fracture
Dr Karthik Reddy Pammi also had the opportunity to moderate a live Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty procedure for a complex proximal humerus fracture.
Live surgery discussions are an important part of advanced orthopaedic education. They bring clinical decision-making, surgical technique and the finer nuances of a procedure into a single discussion.
A complex proximal humerus fracture may require careful assessment of the fracture pattern, bone quality, shoulder function and individual patient factors when determining the most appropriate treatment approach.
The live surgical session allowed faculty and participants to discuss the practical aspects of Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty, including surgical decision-making and technical considerations during the procedure.
Advancing Shoulder Arthroplasty Through Medical Education
Professional courses such as the KAC Arthroplasty Course provide valuable opportunities for orthopaedic surgeons to exchange knowledge and discuss advances in joint replacement surgery.
For specialists involved in shoulder surgery and arthroplasty, these academic interactions encourage discussion of surgical techniques, biomechanics, complex cases and evolving treatment approaches.
Dr Karthik Reddy Pammi expressed his appreciation to the Kurinji Arthroplasty Course organising team for the invitation and hospitality, and to the fellow faculty members for the engaging discussions.
His participation as faculty reflects his continued involvement in orthopaedic education, shoulder surgery and arthroplasty, contributing to professional discussions around evolving practices in joint replacement surgery.
