Arthritis

MRI
Meniscal transplants are indicated when there is adequate loss of meniscal tissue either from an injury or previous surgeries as well as continued joint line pain. The meniscal transplant is from a cadaveric donor which has been matched to the specifications of the patient’s knee which can be determined from an MRI. To benefit from a meniscal transplant the patient needs to have good articular cartilage along the knee surfaces. Patients with moderate to severe arthritis are not good candidates for a meniscal transplant.

Orthopedic Surgery
Intramurally funded through the UT Department of Orthopedic Surgery & Memorial Hermann Health System. COFAKS is a prospective cohort study currently containing over 1,000 patients following ACL reconstruction with and without concomitant injuries. The primary goals of this study are to determine the most appropriate treatment pathways for individuals recovering from ACL injury; and to lower the risk of subsequent ACL injuries by utilizing objective return to activity testing criteria. To date, patients participating within this trial have exhibited a much lower ACL reinjury rate (2.3%) when compared to documented national averages (7.0-12.5%) at 2-years after surgery. Additionally, this cohort of patients serves as a normative benchmark for functional recovery throughout the course of rehabilitation after ACL surgery, allowing for a more objective assessment of patient progress.

Knee Arthroscopy
Dr. Walter Lowe participates with the residents and fellows in the sports medicine rotation. This rotation provides an excellent opportunity for the residents and fellows to experience a significant amount of shoulder and knee arthroscopy. The rotation also includes the coverage of college athletes at Rice University, and the ability to cover several high school athletic events. Through Dr. Walter Lowe, the residents have exposure to the state-of-the-art Sports Medicine Institute at MHHS-TMC, an excellent facility in which high school, college and professional athletes are treated for various sports-related problems.
Reconstructive Surgery
It is the hope of Dr. Lowe and his staff that after you have an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction you lead a normal injury free life and return to all activities. The initial reconstruction is referred to as a primary ACL reconstruction. It is an unfortunate fact that sometimes even after you have your ACL reconstructed, that you can re-injure the ligament and require another reconstructive surgery. In most cases, if you re-injure your ACL graft, a revision reconstruction is needed. There are two general ways to perform an ACL revision: a Single-Stage procedure or a Double-Stage procedure.

Physical Therapy
Funded by the U.S. Department of Defense – W81XWH-15-2-0067: The overall purpose of this multicenter randomized clinical trial is to test the effectiveness of the REPAIR intervention (physical therapy (PT) plus blood flow restricted (BFR) training) when compared to usual care PT alone for active military-aged individuals recovering from lower extremity injury. We hypothesize that REPAIR will lead to improved long-term functional outcomes, largely through its effect on increasing muscle strength and muscle volume. The application of this novel treatment approach is theorized to expedite rehabilitation, reduce re-injury risk, and improve long-term clinical outcomes.
