Dr. James Gladstone: “The Baseline: For Parker, other ACL patients, better results ahead”
On Monday, the NBA saw its first ACL injury of the season, when Jabari Parker of the Bucks went down in the third quarter against the Suns. But thanks to a rethinking of how to reconstruct torn ACLs, orthopedic surgeons have made significant progress in performing these operations in the past decade or so, and the result has been better outcomes. “We’ve developed a better understanding of the anatomical position of the ACL so that we are reconstructing them more accurately, closer to the normal anatomy, which leads to a better functioning knee for the long run,” said Dr. James Gladstone, the co-chief of Sports Medicine at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai.
