Journal Article
Percutaneous tendon lengthening and selective percutaneous myofascial lengthening in children with cerebral palsy: Establishing surgical indications using the Delphi method
Purpose: Percutaneous tendon lengthening (PTL), including selective percutaneous myofascial lengthening (SPML), is popular in cerebral palsy (CP) with advocates arguing that it is minimally invasive and may result in less pain and faster rehabilitation than open techniques, but supporting evidence…

Journal Article
Five-year MRI follow-up of growth-related complications after ACL reconstruction in children and adolescents
Background: Growth-related complications are a concern in skeletally immature patients undergoing anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). Reported outcomes of growth disturbances following ACLR in this population are heterogeneous. Purpose: We hypothesized that transphyseal ACLR performed…
