    Ep. 101 Lateral Knee Extra-Articular Tenodesis (LET) with Dr. Kyle Borque

    It’s comeback season! What’s bringing lateral extra-articular tenodesis (LET) back to the landscape of ACL surgery? In this episode of BackTable Bone & Sports, Dr. Larry Balle joins sports orthopedic surgeon and knee specialist Dr. Kyle Borque to discuss the resurgence of lateral extra-articular tenodesis (LET) as an adjunct to ACL repair and reconstruction. They explore LET’s origins as a solution for rotation instability in the era of open ACL surgery, and examine how modern arthroscopic techniques, patient selection, and surgical evidence have driven LET’s renewed relevance in today's practice. --- Get the BackTable apphttps://www.backtable.com/app --- Timestamps 00:00 - Introduction 02:36 - LET Origin Story14:16 - Modern LET Technique Updates23:13 - A Run-Down of the Procedure in the OR26:54 - Patient Selection for LET34:18 - Supporting LET with Published Evidence38:43 - Rehab After LET44:33 - Dismissing OA Concerns50:10 - Case Example: ACL Revision53:02 - Wrap Up --- More about this episode The Drs. highlight the anatomy considerations, technical modifications, and the evidence that supports LET’s role in reducing graft failure, without changing rehab or increasing lateral OA risk. They compare LET with anterolateral ligament (ALL) reconstruction, emphasizing anatomy and technical approach. Dr. Borque details his modified technique using an iliotibial (IT) band strip fixed proximal and posterior to the lateral epicondyle of the femur. Furthermore, the doctors discuss selection factors for high-risk and revision patients, tactics to avoid overconstraint, and tips for patient counseling. They review the latest evidence, outline perioperative protocols, and address persistent myths about LET’s impact on recovery and osteoarthritis. The doctors highlight a real-world case example and the actionable insights for orthopedic surgeons to optimize ACL outcomes. --- Resources Dr. Larry Ballehttps://www.linkedin.com/in/larry-balle-ii/ Dr. Kyle Borquehttps://www.drborque.com/ Lateral Extra-articular Tenodesis Reduces Failure of Hamstring Tendon Autograft Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction: 2-Year Outcomes From the STABILITY Study Randomized Clinical Trial https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31940222/ --- BackTable Bone & Sports is the go-to podcast for orthopedic surgeons, sports medicine docs, pain specialists, and MSK radiologists.

    Ep. 100 Return to Play Post Injury: Balancing Risk & Recovery with Dr. Andy Glidewell

    “The athlete’s job is to stay consistent with rehab and to be hungry to get back on the field. I think our job as a sports medicine team is to make sure that they’re safe and that they can perform.” In this episode of BackTable MSK, guest host and sports medicine physician Dr. Larry Balle joins physical therapist/athletic trainer Andy Glidewell to discuss how “return to play” is defined and why it is often misunderstood among athletes, coaches, physicians, and rehab teams. --- Get the BackTable apphttps://www.backtable.com/app --- Timestamps 00:00 - Introduction 04:25 - Return to Play from the Lens of Physical Therapy vs. Sports Medicine12:11 - Evidence-based vs. Anecdotal-based Practice for Return to Play21:18 - Is there an Appropriate Team Approach? 24:25 - Continuing Conservative Management vs. Surgical Intervention34:01 - Notes on a High-Profile Sports Medicine Case40:20 - The Influence of NIL on College Athletics42:51 - Obtaining Objective Metrics for Clearance52:38 - Influence of AI on Return to Play Algorithms 57:11 - Final Takeaways --- More about this episode They emphasize that return to play is a milestone-based rehabilitation phase requiring clear communication, collaboration, and risk management, rather than rigid timelines or just “vibes.” The conversation covers how evidence and objectivity have shaped protocols (notably ACL timelines), the role of prognostic indicators in operative vs. non-operative decisions, and practical use of functional strength and agility reassessment. They also address pressures of working with elite sport and NIL (Name, Image, Likeness) considerations. Furthermore, they expand on how AI may inform, but not replace, the humanistic and team-based components of decision making. --- Resources Dr. Larry Ballehttps://www.linkedin.com/in/larry-balle-ii/ Dr. Andy Glidewellhttps://uamshealth.com/provider/michael-a-glidewell/ The Journal of Orthopedic and Sports Physical Therapyhttps://www.jospt.org/ --- BackTable Musculoskeletal (MSK) is the go-to podcast for musculoskeletal radiologists, interventional pain specialists, and orthopedic surgeons.
