Description: Physicians at the University of Washington Medical Centers Bone and Joint Surgery Center use innovative and proven surgery techniques designed for quick recovery and optimal outcomes to treat patients with shoulder injuries. Dr. Rick Matsen uses an alternative to a traditional shoulder replacement called a ream and run to help a 65-year-old racquetball player keep swinging hard on the court. The pioneer of this procedure, Dr. Matsen discovered that the ream and run allows cartilage to rebuild itself, recreating a smooth joint surface. Dr. Winston Warme repairs a torn rotator cuff to keep a very active construction manager rock climbing and doing Bikram yoga. Dr. Warme also uses arthroscopic surgery to perform a Bankart repair on a college student who suffered multiple shoulder injuries. To see more videos from the University of Washington visit uwtv.org.
