In every facet of its mission, the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery at

Hospital for Special Surgery is dedicated to the ultimate goal of providing

patients the greatest opportunity to return to normal function and the highest

probability for a successful outcome. The 2008-2009 Annual Report of

the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery features the activities of

each of the Department’s surgical services, as well as the work

of the Hospital’s Department of Biomechanics, which plays

an integral role in each of these services. Whether we are

developing new surgical approaches and designing better

implants, devices, and instrumentation in concert with

bioengineers; fostering research breakthroughs through

observations in the clinical arena and interdisciplinary

collaborations among clinicians and scientists; or

promoting the skills of new and seasoned surgeons through

hands-on experience and global education programs—we do

so in a deep-rooted culture of insight and innovation.

A MESSAGE FROM THE SURGEON-IN-CHIEF

Thomas P. Sculco, MD

2

As I reflect on the 2008–2009 academic

year, I am pleased to report that the

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery has

made important advances on a number

of fronts. Progress in our patient care,

research, and educational efforts is

the result of superb teamwork

among the physicians, scientists,

and many health professionals

who serve the patients of Hospital

for Special Surgery. It is also the

product of an intellectual

environment that fosters individual

initiative, collaborative relationships,

and a noticeable esprit de corps.

As a specialty institution with

a tremendous orthopaedic

patient volume—over

22,600 surgical procedures

and more than 93,000

patient visits to the

Department’s 12

orthopaedic surgery

services in 2008—Hospital for Special

Surgery affords us the opportunity to

focus on all aspects of care of the

musculoskeletal patient and to be

innovative in our approach to research

—from ideas that are pursued in the

laboratory, which inform new treatments,

to the clinical research that allows us to

evaluate conventional surgeries and

alternative procedures to achieve

maximal outcomes. The magnitude of

our caseload also provides our residents

and fellows with outstanding training

and experience in a diverse range of

orthopaedic procedures.

IMPROVING CARE OF PATIENTS

In 2008, the Hospital’s patient volume

grew by 13 percent, and the quality and

end result of our care as documented

by benchmarks and outcome measures

continued to be outstanding. To be able to

maintain quality while accommodating

this significant increase in cases in

our new OR facilities is an important

accomplishment.

During the past year, the Hospital

restructured its quality process,

enabling us to be more responsive to

identifying trends in patient care and

service, and to be able to more quickly

implement programs to improve

performance. Our rates for infection,

pulmonary emboli, deep vein thrombosis,

myocardial infarctions, and other

measures of safety and quality are

monitored very carefully. In 2008, the

Hospital’s overall surgical site infection

rate was reduced from 0.35 percent to

0.26 percent compared to a national

rate of more than 2 percent; overall

pulmonary embolus rate decreased from

0.48 percent to 0.25 percent; and overall

deep vein thrombosis rate showed a

reduction from 0.96 percent to 0.43

percent. We continue to work on reducing

our infection rate to an absolute mini-

mum, and our best practices in infection

control have positioned us as a hospital

that is likely to have the lowest infection

rate for orthopaedics in the world.

In addition, through the Hospital’s

Medicine, our orthopaedic surgery

patients—many of whom present with

complex comorbidities—are screened

by our rheumatologists and internists

prior to surgery, helping to ensure the

best possible outcomes.

We were pleased to welcome Michael

J. Klein, MD, as the Director of Labora-

tory Medicine and Pathologist-in-Chief.

Dr. Klein, who is internationally renowned

for his work in the surgical pathology

of bone and joint diseases, succeeds

Peter G. Bullough, MD, who retired as

Director and Chief after 40 years of

service. Dr. Klein comes to us from the

University of Alabama, where he was

the Director of Surgical Pathology.

At Special Surgery, technology is

playing an increasingly important role

in the provision of high-quality care. With

the installation of CliniCIS in mid-2007,

many benefits accrued to clinical practice

in 2008 from the availability of electronic

patient orders, test results, medication

alerts, and chart documentation. A

Picture Archiving and Communication

System (PACS) is now accessible in our

ORs and physician offices, and a new

state-of-the-art instrument tracking

system has been implemented in central

sterile supply.

We were very pleased to once again be

named the top hospital in the nation in

orthopaedics by U.S.News & World

Report in its 2008 “America’s Best

Hospitals” issue. Hospital for Special

Surgery also ranked fourth in the

nation for rheumatology. For the 18th

consecutive year, the Hospital has

been top ranked in the Northeast for

orthopaedics and rheumatology. The

Hospital also sustained its first place

position in New York State for Joint

Replacement Surgery and received the

Health Grades Joint Replacement

Excellence Award. These honors are a

testament to the expertise of our

physicians and health professionals and

a dedication to continually advance the

care we can provide to patients.

RESTRUCTURING RESEARCHFOR CLINICAL RESULTS

At the core of the Department of

Orthopaedic Surgery is a commitment

to pursuing basic, translational, and

clinical research. Our scientists under-

stand the problems that arise in the

clinical arena and our clinicians are

adept in scientific investigation. Their

collaborations enable us to translate

discoveries much more rapidly and

efficiently into improvements in patient

care. In an era in which the National

Institutes of Health (NIH) had less

funding to provide for research, HSS

increased its federal grant portfolio by

14.6 percent over 2007, with awards

totaling $22.4 million. Total active awards

for 2008 totaled $32.7 million, an increase

of 14.2 percent or $4.1 million over the

previous year.

For the past two years, the Hospital has

been moving forward with an ambitious

plan to integrate its basic, translational,

and clinical research efforts to allow us

to maintain scientific excellence into the

future. Our objective is to create a

platform for insuring the translation of

basic science findings to patient care.

To accomplish this, we have created an

interdisciplinary model for supporting

the physician-scientist career path at

Special Surgery, thus providing a

critical link for transforming clinical

observations into testable research

hypotheses and translating research

findings into medical advances.

Among our interdisciplinary

translational research programs is the

Osteolysis Translational Center, which

is designed both to increase our under-

standing of osteolysis and identify

candidate targets for therapeutic

intervention. An osteolysis tissue

repository and clinical data registry has

been developed that will help elucidate

the risk factors and molecular markers

for osteolysis and lead to the development

of diagnostic tools and treatments for

osteolysis. Another translational

research team is addressing bone

structure and function, with a particular

interest in bone healing, including

fracture repair, response to implants,

spine fusion, and defect healing.

Recently, the Hospital created a major

research program aimed at osteoarthritis.

The Osteoarthritis (OA) Initiative is an

integrated basic, translational, and

clinical research program that will

concentrate on identifying risk factors

for OA, prevention or reduction of

inflammation at the onset of the

disease, medical intervention to slow

its progression, and surgical solutions

when other means have been exhausted.

In addition to building a translational

program, we have created a core facility

for epidemiology and biostatistics that

is providing clinical trial study design

consultation and assistance with

questionnaire and database development.

This effort is part of our Musculoskeletal

Repair and Regeneration Core Center,

funded by the National Institutes of

Health (NIH), which is dedicated to

providing services to further support

the coordinated efforts of clinicians,

scientists, and engineers.

The Research Division was successful in

obtaining two NIH Shared Instrumenta-

tion Grant awards, allowing the purchase

of a musculoskeletal imaging micro-

computed tomography (microCT) scanner

and a high resolution confocal microscope.

The microCT scanner provides a resolu-

tion of less than 40 microns, which

provides visualization, measurement,

and quantification of the structure of

bone and expands our ability to deter-

mine the geometry, architecture, and

material properties of musculoskeletal

tissue. The confocal microscope provides

high resolution optical imaging that

improves our ability to study multiple

cellular and in vivo processes.

I am pleased to announce that funding

has been completed for the Richard S.

Laskin, MD Chair in Musculoskeletal

Education, which honors the memory

of Dr. Laskin, a valued member of the

HSS staff for 17 years who passed away

early in 2008. The Chair supports two

areas of particular interest to Dr. Laskin:

the Hospital’s Arthroplasty Registry

and the HSS Journal.

The Arthroplasty Registry—a

component of the Center for Education

and Research on Therapeutics—records

and tracks detailed information about

the thousands of joint replacement

surgeries that our orthopaedic

surgeons perform each year. Funded

by a multi-year grant from the Agency

for Healthcare Research and Quality,

CERT is a collaborative effort with

Weill Cornell Medical College to

address questions regarding clinical

outcome measurements, including pain

and activity level, variations, and

economic impacts of total joint

surgeries. Patients will continue to

be registered throughout the five-year

grant, with an expected enrollment

of 20,000 patients. This will make

the registry one of the largest joint

replacement registries in the world.

The Arthroplasty Registry is one of

more than 25 patient registries

established by the Hospital, uniquely

positioning us to conduct clinical

research while evaluating how best to

apply the most recent innovations in

orthopaedics and rheumatology.

The HSS Journal: The Musculoskeletal

Journal of Hospital for Special Surgery,

has just printed its eighth issue. This

peer-reviewed publication, which was

launched in 2005, disseminates pace-

setting bone and joint research studies,

clinical pathways, and state-of-the-art

techniques to the broader musculoskele-

tal community. Charles N. Cornell, MD,

Clinical Director of Orthopaedic

Surgery at HSS, was named Editor-in-

Chief in 2008 following the death of

Richard L. Laskin, MD, founding

Editor. In 2008, the HSS Journal was

accepted into PubMed Central (PMC),

a digital archive of biomedical and life

sciences journals maintained by the

National Institutes of Health, a

precursor to full PubMed indexing.

In 2005, Jo A. Hannafin, MD, PhD,

Orthopaedic Research Director, and

Chisa Hidaka, MD, Assistant Scientist,

created a formal mentorship program

with the goal of attracting the best

and brightest medical students to

clinical orthopaedics and orthopaedics

research early in their medical training

with the hopes that they will become

the next leaders in the field. Students

from Weill Cornell Medical College,

Dartmouth University, Pennsylvania

State University, Mount Sinai School

of Medicine, Albert Einstein College

of Medicine, Columbia University,

George Washington University, and

University of Michigan, to name a

few, have taken part in the program.

Outreach Overseas

Members of the HSS communityare involved in volunteer projectsserving areas with limited accessto medical care and working toraise the level of musculoskeletalcare across the globe. Amongthem are Oheneba Boachie-Adjei,MD, who has traveled to Ghanaand throughout West Africa since1998, when he establishedF.O.C.O.S.—The Foundation of Orthopedics and Complex Spine.

In June 2008, Frank A. Cordasco,MD, went to Ghana to performvarious orthopaedic procedures,including total knee replacementon a woman with long-standingarthritis (photo below). Dr. Cordasco (center) was assistedby an orthopaedic resident (left)and scrub nurse (far right) fromGhana, and Panagiotis Koulouvaris,MD (foreground, left), a formerHSS fellow. “It was an afternooncase,” says Dr. Cordasco. “Thewater had run out. We scrubbedwith bottled water, and at onepoint we lost power during athunder storm before the generators kicked in.”

Dr. Boachie (far left), accompanied by his scoliosis fellow, Satyajit Marawar, MBBS (middlerow, sixth from left), and a volunteer team of HSS physicians, nurses and physical therapists,has just returned from his 25th trip to West Africa. In the past decade, volunteer teams have evaluated thousands of patients from different parts of Africa and performed hundreds of corrective orthopaedic procedures in Ghana.

Dr. Charles N. Cornell, Clinical Director of Orthopaedic Surgery at HSS, serves as Editor-in-Chief of the HSS Journal, which has recentlybeen accepted into PubMed Central.

A Global Alliance

The second meeting of the International Society of Orthopaedic Centers—a collaborative group made up

of 14 organizations in 11 countries—took place inZurich, Switzerland in October 2008. ISOC members

hail from Belgium, Chile, China, Germany, Italy, Mexico,The Netherlands, Sweden, Switzerland, the United

Kingdom, and the United States. The third ISOC meeting is planned to take place at Istituto

Ortopedico Rizzoli in Bologna, Italy in spring 2010.

program and have now finished medical

school, two have been accepted into

orthopaedic residency programs, one is

pursuing a year of research at HSS and

then will be applying for an orthopaedic

residency, and one student was

stimulated to pursue an interest in

bone tissue engineering.

EDUCATION ENDEAVORS

Our orthopaedic residency and fellowship

programs continue to be highly compet-

itive. This June, eight orthopaedic

residents and 36 orthopaedic surgery

fellows were recognized at the Hospital’s

121st graduation ceremonies. In July, we

welcomed eight new orthopaedic residents

from a pool of more than 500 outstanding

applicants. All eight positions were filled

with talented and diverse candidates

coming from the prestigious medical

schools of Brown, Case Western Reserve,

Columbia University, Georgetown,

Harvard, New York University,

Vanderbilt, and Weill Cornell.

We continue to expand our international

educational initiatives. Under the lead-

ership of Eduardo A. Salvati, MD, and

Alejandro Gonzalez Della Valle, MD,

and in collaboration with the Hospital’s

International Learning and Training

Center, we hosted an educational

program on reconstructive surgery

featuring presentations on ACL

reconstruction with bone tendon bone

autograft and shoulder arthroscopic

anterior stabilization for 120

orthopaedic surgeons from Spain. The

program included two live surgeries

transmitted from the OR—a total hip

replacement and a knee replacement

with computer navigation.

In 2006, we founded the International

Society of Orthopaedic Centers (ISOC)

to facilitate the exchange of ideas and

best practices to affect improvement in

orthopaedic care on a global scale. Mem-

ber institutions are specialty orthopaedic

hospitals or large orthopaedic depart-

ments within a hospital, which perform

more than 5,000 total orthopaedic

procedures per year and have an ortho-

paedic staff of more than 20 surgeons

who conduct research and training. In

October 2008, the ISOC held its second

meeting at the Schulthess Klinik in Zurich.

During this meeting, members developed

a consensus paper on challenges facing

us in orthopaedic care and initiated four

task forces: Education/Fellowship;

Outcome/Clinical Studies/Registries;

Implant Retrieval; and Information

Exchange/Website.

INFLUENCING INNOVATION

HSS surgeons, in collaboration with the

Hospital’s biomechanical engineers, were

among the earliest developers of

prosthetic implants, creating joint

replacements for the hip, knee, ankle,

shoulder, elbow and wrist, as well as

devices for enhancing spine fusion and

improving spinal stabilization. One-third

of all artificial joints manufactured

worldwide are derived from designs

created here. We continue to improve upon

surgical techniques and implant tech-

nology to offer patients the greatest

opportunity to return to normal function

and the highest probability for long-term

success of prosthetic joints. We also have

been involved in the development of novel

imaging protocols, the design of

revolutionary fiber optic probes for

distinguishing healthy and diseased

cartilage during surgery, and computer

modelling to solve biomechanical problems

in the knee, ankle, and shoulder joints.

In the 2008-2009 Annual Report of the

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, we

highlight our more recent bench-to-bed-

side investigations, collaborations, and

clinical advances, which are leading to

improvements in the health and mobility

of patients with musculoskeletal

conditions the world over.

In the four years since its inception, the

Adult Limb Lengthening and Deformity

Service has experienced substantial

growth in clinical volume and research

activity. Internationally recognized for

its clinical achievements and research

and educational initiatives, the Adult

Limb Lengthening Service continues

to advance innovative approaches to

address complex limb deformities

resulting from trauma, congenital

conditions, or musculoskeletal diseases.

In 2008-2009, we explored new biological

approaches to limb lengthening using

adjuvant treatments to improve and

hasten bone healing, which is essential

to limb lengthening procedures. Our

surgeons have seen positive results with

percutaneously injecting concentrated

stem cells from a patient’s bone marrow

directly into new bone growth to

stimulate the healing process time by as

much as 25 percent with great benefit

and low morbidity. The more quickly

the bone heals, the earlier the external

fixator frames can be removed and the

patient can resume full weight bearing.

We continue to collaborate with the Foot

and Ankle Service in ankle distraction

procedures, the most conservative

option for preserving the joint. During

surgery, a hinged external fixator

designed and developed by our surgeons

is applied across the ankle and the

arthritic joint is pulled apart. Our

surgeons are using both bone marrow

stem cells as well as platelet derived

growth factor isolated from a person’s

peripheral blood—another biological

agent—which are injected into the

joint to stimulate cartilage regeneration

in the distracted joint. We recently

published very positive outcomes in

Foot & Ankle International.

The LATN (lengthening and then

nailing) and LAP (lengthening and then

plating) hybrid techniques, procedures

developed at Hospital for Special Surgery,

incorporate staging with external

fixation to lengthen the bone over time,

followed by the insertion of an internal

fixation device such as a rod or plate to

complete the process without the need

for an outside fixator. The technique

has proven to be very successful and is

currently being employed by surgeons

around the country.

Working with the Metabolic Bone

Disease/Musculoskeletal Oncology

Service, our surgeons are pursuing

research that examines two stem cell

concentration systems to determine

which one produces the highest number

of bone forming units. Other research

underway includes computer navigation

and fixator-assisted femoral osteotomy

for correction of malunion after

periprosthetic femur fracture, and tibial

deformity correction with the Ilizarov-

Taylor spatial frame.

In 2008, the Adult Reconstruction and

Joint Replacement Division—comprised

of the Hip Service, Knee Service, and

Surgical Arthritis Service—performed

more than 7,000 surgeries, predominately

hip and knee replacements, hip and knee

revisions, and hip resurfacing.

In 2009, the Division held its second

annual research retreat with the goal of

organizing its active research programs

into major thematic groups. The retreat

included representatives from the

Department of Biomechanics and the

Research Division, and physicians from

the Hip, Knee, and Surgical Arthritis

Services. Participants identified areas of

common research interest and explored

research collaborations that would

achieve the greatest impact and results.

Projects currently underway include:

Osteoarthritis InitiativeThe OA Initiative is an unprecedented

collaboration of our clinicians, basic

scientists, and clinical researchers, under-

taken to examine factors associated with

the development of osteoarthritis and

potential interventions to prevent this

degenerative joint disease.

Perioperative IssuesOur clinicians are exploring patient care

issues that include the optimal way to

reduce the risk of blood clots following

total joint replacement surgery, medica-

tions and implants used, and improving

ways to rapidly mobilize patients for a

safe discharge.

Bone RestorationResearchers are studying ways to minimize

bone loss around implants and to develop

restorative techniques using new protein-

coated implants, as well as systemic drug

therapies, including parathyroid hormone

and other agents. In the Hospital’s

Osteolysis Laboratory, clinician-scientists

continue research to understand the body’s

response to artificial joints, and the

mechanism triggering the development of

particulates, such as the bits of polymers,

ceramic, and metal that wear off implants

over time. Physicians are seeking answers

as to why in some patients that process

initiates an extremely aggressive reaction

resulting in bone loss, yet in other patients,

there is no reaction. The goal is to identify

patients who might be at risk for these

responses and determine how to modify

that reaction by using a biologic agent.

Registries and OutcomesThe Hospital’s Arthroplasty Registry,

which is a comprehensive database that

records and tracks detailed information

about the thousands of joint replacement

surgeries that take place at the Hospital

each year, is expected to ultimately become

one of the largest joint replacement

registries in the world. In addition to

storing information about perioperative

health status, implant types, and patient

demographics, the registry tracks a variety

of clinical outcome measurements over

time, including pain and activity level. By

following the functioning of joint replace-

ment patients over long periods, our sur-

geons hope to determine which surgical

practices and implant models are most

effective.

The Adult Reconstruction and Joint

Replacement Division is facilitating the

Center for Education and Research on

Therapeutics (CERT) – a multi-year grant

from the Agency for Healthcare Research

and Quality that is dedicated to addressing

questions regarding outcomes, variations,

and economic impacts of total joint surger-

ies. In addition to looking at trends for

complications, CERT has been expanded

to examine issues such as patient

expectations and factors affecting

ADULT RECONSTRUCTION AND JOINT REPLACEMENT DIVISION

outcomes in patients who have had hip,

knee, or shoulder replacements at

Hospital for Special Surgery.

The Division’s comprehensive Hip and

Knee Replacement Registry continues to

collect data to address questions of

performance, the interplay of perioperative

variables and medical co-morbidities, as

well as the functional outcomes of joint

replacement, hip replacement, knee

replacement, and how patients respond to

different bearings, materials, implants, and

surgical approaches.

HIP SERVICE

Hospital for Special Surgery is one of

the largest centers for hip problems in the

country. In 2008, the Hip Service continued

to experience remarkable growth, per-

forming an unprecedented number of

surgeries—including primary and revision

replacements, hip resurfacing, and arthro-

scopic procedures. Our surgeons, collabo-

rating with biologists and bioengineers,

were among the earliest developers of

prosthetic implants. They continue to

improve upon surgical techniques and

implant technology to offer patients the

greatest opportunity to return to normal

function and the highest probability for

long-term success of the prosthetic hip.

In addition, our surgeons continue to

develop new procedures, including

minimally invasive hip arthroscopy, for

patients who have hip conditions that do

not require a total hip replacement.

In 2008, the Hip Service, in collaboration

with the Sports Medicine and Shoulder

Service, embarked on the establishment of

the Center for Hip Pain and Preservation,

an interdisciplinary center that involves

both adult reconstruction and sports

medicine surgeons. The Center will seek

to learn more about the interplay between

how the joint moves in its natural

environment and the abnormalities that

initiate the cascading effect that results in

loss of cartilage and the development of

osteoarthritis.

The Center will also provide a unique

opportunity to follow a younger patient

population and enroll these patients in a

hip preservation registry to determine if

interventions done earlier in life impact

and influence whether or not patients will

later develop degenerative hip problems.

Information recorded will include physical

data and morphological data, and the shape

and orientation of the hip joint. Newer

novel imaging techniques will help our

physicians understand not only the

quantity of cartilage, but also the quality

of the cartilage, and in time, we hope to

answer what impact that has on a patient’s

hip condition years later. The Hip and

Knee Registry continues to support a

number of clinical trials underway.

Recent studies have reported on results

of the use of ceramic hip replacements,

as well as the Service’s Fast Track

program, which facilitates a quicker

discharge from the Hospital.

standard-setting developments in knee

implants and knee replacement surgery.

The Knee Service has been involved in

the evaluation of the partial or unicom-

partmental knee replacement, which

may promote faster recovery by

removing and replacing only the most

damaged areas of the knee. Our

surgeons continue to explore who the

best candidates are to benefit from this

technology and approach, and why some

benefit from partial knee replacement

and others do not.

Our surgeons also continue to investigate

less invasive ways to perform knee

replacem ent and help design and

evaluate newer implants that allow for

higher levels of function. Recent research

looked at tibial post wear in posterior-

stabilized knee replacements and venous

thromboembolic disease after total hip

and knee arthroplasty.

Knee Service surgeons continue to

work with the Hospital’s Department of

Biomechanics conducting assessments

of various materials and designs in

knee replacement based on analysis

of the plastic posts on hundreds of

specimens from the implant retrieval

archive—the largest in the world—

which has provided opportunities for

implant design changes.

They have also evaluated newer ceramic

surfaces in knee replacement, showing

they may improve the performance of

the implant system with lower wear

rates of the plastic and less scratching

of the femur.

Working with an industry partner, the

Knee Service and the Department of

Biomechanics are participating in the

development of the newest design of

knee replacement incorporating infor-

mation for improvements derived from

clinical and implant retrieval data. The

new design will facilitate implantation,

result in less wear of the plastic post,

and improve function.

Our orthopaedic surgeons are also

beginning to use computer-designed

patient specific instruments in surgery.

Utilizing pre-operative MRI and long

x-ray images, we are able to develop a

computerized plan of the surgery and

design instrumentation that is custom-

made for that patient with precise

sizing and more accurate alignment of

the implant. The surgery can also be

done more efficiently and is potentially

more accurate.

The Knee Service, in collaboration

with the Sports Medicine and Shoulder

Service, has established a joint

educational program for fellows to

optimize their unicompartmental knee

replacement research effort.

SURGICAL ARTHRITIS SERVICE

The Surgical Arthritis Service is a multi-

disciplinary program for the treatment

of patients with severe inflammatory

arthritis. It is one of the few programs in

the country where orthopaedic surgeons

and rheumatologists together provide

comprehensive care for rheumatoid

arthritis and other autoimmune diseases,

including juvenile rheumatoid arthritis,

systemic lupus erythematosus, psoriatic

arthritis, ankylosing spondylitis, and

Paget’s disease. Patients benefit from

the interdisciplinary approach taken by

the Service’s physicians and surgeons,

who work with a dedicated team of

medical and orthopaedic residents and

fellows, nurses, physical and occupa-

tional therapists, and social workers.

In 2008, the Surgical Arthritis Service

spearheaded efforts in joint registries in

order to track implant performance and

patient satisfaction, and to critically

analyze the impact of the surgeries per-

formed. Our physicians also continue to

study surface replacements in the hip to

analyze their durability and longevity.

Our surgeons constantly seek to improve

minimally invasive techniques, as well

as develop better pathways for

patients regarding pain management,

faster discharge, and quicker recovery

following hip, knee, and unicompart-

mental procedures. We are also working

on the kinematics of elbow replacements

and finite element analysis with the

ultimate goal of designing an enhanced

elbow replacement. This process

involves studying implants that have

failed and learning why they have

failed, as well as examining those

implants that have succeeded.

Other research focuses on studying

implant fixation and exploring more

novel articulations; exploring computer-

assisted navigation methods for more

accurately performing joint replacements;

reducing blood loss after knee replace-

ment using a fibrin gel; and studying a

patient’s blood count before surgery to

determine how much blood might be

needed during surgery. Results have

shown that if a patient’s hemoglobin is

over 12.5 the likelihood of needing a

transfusion is 3 percent, thereby elimi-

nating the need for autologous blood

donations in patients with this level.

In addition, we are designing implants

specifically for children and adolescents

with specific problems including

hemophilia and juvenile RA. Currently,

our surgeons must rely on adult or

custom implants for children. Our goal

is to design better implants specifically

for children who have growth patterns

and bone alignments that are unlike

those of adults.

The Foot and Ankle Service provides

expert treatment for the broad range of

foot and ankle conditions that can occur

at any stage of life, from non-operative

conditions to the most complex trauma

and deformities. In addition to perform-

ing more than 2,000 surgeries in 2008, the

Service’s team of eight orthopaedic

surgeons pursue an active basic and

clinical research program, seeking to

improve techniques for treating the often

challenging disorders of the foot and ankle.

In collaboration with the Adult Limb

Lengthening and Deformity Service, our

foot and ankle surgeons are actively

pursuing the treatment of significant

arthritis and cartilage injuries in the ankle

joint by injecting concentrated stem cells

to determine the benefits of this tech-

nique. In another cartilage and bone

repair technique, we continue to evaluate

improved measures for the treatment

of osteochondral lesions, including

implanting bone and cartilage graft

harvested from the knee into the ankle.

Working with researchers in the Leon

Root, MD, Motion Analysis Laboratory,

our surgeons are studying the best way

to achieve even pressure across the

ankle joint by looking at the pressure

patterns that defects create and how

well they are resolved by implanting

bone and cartilage plugs so that

pressure is evenly distributed.

Our surgeons are also studying whether

fusion is an effective method for treating

severe trauma to the metatarsal tarsal

joints in the midfoot. With pins or screws

to hold the ligaments in place, the joint

can still become arthritic and uncom-

fortable. Some patients do better when the

joints are fused because they do not lose

significant motion and the fusion creates

a stable midfoot. Follow-up is ongoing to

determine which approach is preferable.

The Foot and Ankle Service continues to

search for new treatments to stimulate

bone growth and healing. Selected

patients with poor bone healing have

been given Forteo, a recombinant form

of parathyroid hormone that stimulates

the cells that build bone. Other agents—

bone morphogenetic proteins that

stimulate bone and cartilage growth or

stem cells that are spun from peripheral

blood—are delivered directly into the

site during surgery.

The Foot and Ankle Research Center,

established in 2005, manages more then

18,000 patient records with scored and

analyzed research data with up to 10-

year follow-up on all categories of

surgical and nonsurgical patients. The

database enables our surgeons to docu-

ment details of surgical interventions

during cartilage repair and to compare

them with clinical outcomes.

In 2008, our surgeons contributed to the

design and development of a new total

ankle replacement system, which is ex-

pected to be available by the end of 2009.

The orthopaedic surgeons of the Hand

and Upper Extremity Service are highly

skilled in reconstruction of brachial

plexus and peripheral nerve injuries,

arthroscopic repair of complex ligament

tears, fixation of pediatric and adult

wrist, hand and forearm fractures,

complex tumor resection, microsurgical

repair of blood vessels, and reconstruc-

tion of complex elbow injuries.

In collaboration with the Leon Root, MD,

Motion Analysis Laboratory, our hand

surgeons have developed novel motion

analysis technology, for the first time, to

map motion in the upper extremity with

respect to the trunk. The team has

developed a battery of tests to assess

functional ability and that help to better

define patient outcomes.

Funding from the National Institutes of

Health has enabled kinematic mapping

of the “dart-thrower’s” wrist motion, a

complex pattern of motion that is unique

to humans and critical for efficient

performance of many occupational and

recreational tasks. By mapping the arc

of a dart-thrower’s motion using markers

affixed to the hand and the forearm, the

parameters that allow wrist motion can

be calculated. The data will provide

important information so that surgical

procedures can be tailored to better

facilitate patient function. A two-year

Research Grant from the Orthopedic

Research and Education Foundation

(OREF) is funding collaborative work

by a team from HSS and Brown Univer-

sity to correlate functional performance

and motion following simulated and

actual surgical reconstruction of the post-

traumatic wrist. These advancements

have sparked collaborations with industry

on the development of an innovative

wrist prosthesis designed to benefit

active individuals with wrist arthritis.

Hand surgeons are making great strides

in resecting bone and soft tissue sarcomas

of the hand, forearm, and elbow, pre-

venting local recurrence and metastasis,

and performing reconstruction to restore

optimal function. They are also pioneer-

ing the concept of thumb salvage and

have recently completed a study showing

that reconstruction following resection

can result in acceptable functional out-

comes with a low risk of complication.

Our surgeons are increasingly using

percutaneous and other less invasive

approaches to fix scaphoid and finger

fractures, for arthroscopic release of

tendons in tennis elbow, and for

arthroscopy of the fingers, wrist, and

elbow. The goal is to diminish the size

of incisions and limit the amount of

additional trauma so that recovery can

be expedited. Our Service, which

established the Hospital’s first patient

registry, now has nearly 1,000 patients

enrolled in nine different registries,

including those for thumb arthritis,

distal radial fractures, and brachial

plexus injuries.

The Metabolic Bone Disease/Musculo-

skeletal Oncology Service brings

together a consortium of basic scientists,

clinical diagnosticians, and medical

disciplines focused on the prevention and

treatment of osteoporosis, Paget’s dis-

ease, and related bone disorders, and

offers a comprehensive program for the

treatment of bone and soft tissue tumors.

In 2008, the Service helped launch the

Medicine Orthopaedic Trauma Service

(MOTS) in collaboration with our

Orthopaedic Trauma Service and with

NewYork-Presbyterian Hospital/Weill

Cornell Medical Center to provide

comprehensive care for patients

presenting with fragility fractures. The

program aims to reduce medical and

surgical complications and improve

management of medical comorbidities.

The Metabolic Bone Disease Service

pursues a wide range of research activi-

ties with a common focus of preserving

the quality of bone or enhancing bone

healing. Studies include applications of

existing drugs to new areas to develop

alternative treatment methods for osteo-

porosis and other metabolic bone diseases.

In particular, our clinicians are looking

at the utility of anticatabolic drugs now

used for treating stable osteoporosis for

preventing bone loss in the setting of a

new fracture or in circumstances where

bone healing is needed. In collaboration

with centers across the country and with

industry, we are establishing a random-

ized trauma trial and a randomized spine

fusion trial using selected agents,

including teraparitide—currently the only

agent that is readily available in the

United States—to build bone, enhance

bone volume and bone synthesis, and

improve bone healing.

The Metabolic Bone Disease Service is

also working both with experimental

models and in clinical trials using

factors or pathways responsible for bone

production to identify agents that block

the chemicals responsible for interfering

with these pathways—the next step

towards developing enhanced bone

production. Our physicians are also about

to embark on a clinical trial investigating

the use of a ceramic containing bone

morphogenic protein injected directly into

the hip, which is expected to increase

bone mass by up to 30 percent at the

site thereby decreasing hip fractures.

The Seymour Cohn Metabolic Bone

Registry collects and analyzes patient

data sets to identify methods to prevent

and repair fragility fractures. Some 230

participants have been enrolled to date,

and seven families, each with three

generations of family members with

fragility fractures, have been indentified.

These findings have led to the develop-

ment of a pilot study to identify

possible areas of the human genome

that may contribute to decreased bone

quality seen in some patients with

multiple fractures.

The Orthopaedic Trauma Service cares

for patients with complex orthopaedic

trauma, both acute and subacute

injuries, including the upper and lower

extremities, pelvis, acetabulum and

other bones and joints, isolated fractures/

dislocations, and poly-trauma. Addi-

tionally, our surgeons treat non-unions

and mal-unions including cases

requiring deformity correction.

The Service continues its ongoing

efforts in the treatment of fractures in

the elderly, who present significant

challenges not only in their medical

status, but also in bone and soft tissue

quality and ability to heal. Stabilizing a

fracture and at the same time ensuring

that the patient can ambulate in order

to prevent the limb from becoming non-

functional requires a better coordination

of care among multi-specialties. To that

end, we established the Medicine

Orthopaedic Trauma Service (MOTS)

in March 2008. MOTS is designed to

ensure that geriatric patients,

particularly those with hip fractures,

receive quality care through the

collaboration of the Department of

Medicine at NewYork-Presbyterian

Hospital/Weill Cornell Medical Center

and the Orthopaedic Trauma Service.

The goal is to operate on the patient

within the first 24 hours to minimize the

risk of “fracture disease,” as well as to

identify and manage all other medical

issues, comorbidities, postoperative

care, rehabilitation, and follow-up.

To address fractures in the elderly, our

surgeons are using the latest devices,

including locking-plate and fixed-angle

screw technologies, to improve fixation

and durability of implants in poor or

deformed bone. With locking technology,

stability can be maintained while bone

healing occurs. We are also exploring the

use of synthetic or cadaveric bone, bone

matrix, bone growth factors—including

bone morphogenic protein—and

hormonal treatment, such as parathyroid

hormone, to enhance bone healing.

The Orthopaedic Trauma Service is

currently developing a comprehensive

center for the evaluation and treatment

of non-arthritic hip pain. The center

will encompass clinical evaluation, non-

operative management, surgical treat-

ment, and postoperative management.

A major research emphasis has focused

on fractures and a number of our studies

are looking at historical controls of

conventional surgery versus the more

modern minimally invasive techniques.

We are learning that perhaps the future

of fracture care should be less invasive

and not necessarily minimally invasive.

The quality of the reduction, especially

in the joint, is key. The ultimate goal

must be perfect restoration of articular

injuries both in the joint surface itself

and then restoring the length, alignment,

and rotation of the limb.

The Pediatric Orthopaedic Service

provides focused expertise in the

treatment of rare and common muscu-

loskeletal disorders in infants, children

and adolescents, including orthopaedic

complications resulting from physical

disabilities, traumatic injuries, and

neuromuscular and acute musculoskeletal

conditions. Areas of particular emphasis

include limb length discrepancy, cerebral

palsy, spinal deformity, hip dysplasia and

toritcollis, and fracture management.

Our pediatric orthopaedic surgeons

continue to explore the use of the

vertical expandable prosthetic titanium

rib (VEPTR), a relatively new device that

has shown positive results in patients

with early onset scoliosis. Growing rods

are attached to the spine and affixed to

vertebrae at the top and bottom and can

be expanded over time using a mechanism

that allows the lengthening to be

performed in an outpatient surgery. The

approach minimizes spinal deformity and

allows lung development to occur to

preserve a normal life span for the

patient. VEPTR was developed initially

for use in children with congenital spine

deformities associated with rib and

chest wall deformities, and today this

minimally invasive approach is also used

for both primary spine deformities, as

well as primary chest wall deformities

that require reconstruction.

In other advanced techniques, our

surgeons are utilizing growing inter-

medullary nails for the management of

osteogenesis imperfecta; the rods expand

as the child grows, helping to avoid

repeat surgical procedures. We are also

using guided growth techniques to allow

natural, safe and gradual correction of

limb alignment. Minimally invasive

plates crossing the growth plate inhibit

growth on one side of the growth plate

to allow for self-correction of limb

deformities and avoid the need for more

invasive osteotomies.

In 2008-2009, the Service pursued an

active research program that includes

studies on measurement of bone density

in the pediatric population; genetic and

orthopaedic aspects of collagen disorders;

and management of idiopathic scoliosis.

In 2008, the Pediatric Orthopaedic

Service established a Fracture and Injury

Hotline—1-877-HSS-1KID—for referring

physicians, offering 24-hour urgent and

emergent care for all major high-energy

trauma cases. Our staff coordinate

patient transfers to either the Pediatric

Ambulatory Care Center at Hospital for

Special Surgery or the Pediatric

Emergency Department at NewYork-

Presbyterian Hospital/Weill Cornell

Medical Center, where our orthopaedic

team retains admitting privileges.

In 2008-2009, the Pediatric Orthopaedic

Service continued to make significant

progress in the design and planning for

the Hospital’s Children’s Pavilion.

The Scoliosis Service has earned world-

wide recognition for its work in the

correction of complex pediatric and adult

spinal deformities, including pediatric

and adult scoliosis and kyphosis, neck

and lower back disc herniations,

spondylolisthesis, stenosis, and fractures.

The Service has established clinical

pathways to provide early and efficient

discharge for patients undergoing

deformity surgery. This process includes

education for patients and clinical staff

on perioperative care.

Our surgeons are advancing the

treatment of adult lumbar scoliosis with

minimally invasive methods such as the

extreme lateral technique, which obviates

the need for a large anterior incision,

minimizes disruption to surrounding

tissues, and decreases the morbidity

associated with open fusion approaches.

Patients are shown to recover more quickly

and with a shorter hospital stay. The

Scoliosis Service continues to implement

endoscopic procedures for thoracic

deformities that allow access to the spine

through the chest cavity.

We are also advancing surgery for

progressive early onset scoliosis with

severe curvature using a modified and

improved dual-rod technique that achieves

correction through the implantation of

growing rods, thereby avoiding major

fusion surgery, which carries the risk of

stunted growth. For the younger patient

with early onset scoliosis, we have been

employing the titanium rib cage device

for patients with severe congenital

scoliosis rib cage deformity and thoracic

insufficiency syndrome.

The Scoliosis Service is now employing

pedicle screw systems to treat thoracic

adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. This

type of internal fixation device provides

three-dimensional correction of spine

deformity and has eliminated the need

to perform conventional procedures

such as rib resection and thoracoplasty.

With the pedicle screw constructs,

surgeons not only correct the scoliosis,

but derotate the rib cage and improve

the rib hump leading to better rib cage

performance. Hospital stays are reduced

and patient recoveries are faster. Patients

also do not experience problems with

breathing, and our surgeons believe they

will be able to return to full activities

more quickly than with either the hybrid

or the hook wire screw construct and

thoracoplasty approach.

The Scoliosis Service is an integral part

of the Hospital’s Spine Care Institute, and

has also contributed to the formation of

the Integrated Spine Research Program.

One of few scoliosis centers with a

physician-scientist on staff, the Scoliosis

Service is currently working to develop

fusion models with biologics and tissue

regeneration to better understand spine

fusion in patients.

In 2009, Dr. Oheneba Boachie-Adjei,

Chief of Service, was named President

of the Scoliosis Research Society.

The Spine Service provides expertise

in the full range of cervical, thoracic,

and lumbar spine disorders, including

degenerative conditions, spinal

deformities, infections, tumors, and

metabolic diseases.

A major initiative in 2008 was the further

development of the Spine Care Institute,

a multidisciplinary center of clinical

excellence, research, and education in

operative and non-operative spine care.

Progress continued on the formation of

the Integrated Spine Research Program

in which both the Spine Service and

Scoliosis Service will collaborate on

clinical trials and together build a

clinician-scientist program dedicated to

advancing spine research. The program

seeks to improve understanding of the

basic biological processes associated

with spinal disorders and their associated

pain syndromes, and to explore new

methods and technologies for treatment.

These include the use of an artificial disc

and nucleus, and regenerative medicine

techniques to reverse the process of disc

degeneration.

The Spine Service participates in a

number of prospective randomized

clinical trials, the most significant of

which has been the NIH-funded Spine

Patient Outcome Research Tool (SPORT)

study, a multicenter randomized clinical

trial of surgical and non-surgical

approaches to the treatment of disc

herniation, stenosis, and degenerative

spondylolisthesis. Reports published in

The New England Journal of Medicine

and the Journal of the American Medical

Association based on two-year outcome

studies of patients who had surgery,

compared to those treated only with non-

surgical methods, showed significantly

better improvement in their pain,

function, and satisfaction.

Other prospective randomized clinical

trials have included non-fusion

technologies, specifically in lumbar and

cervical total disc replacement. This has

resulted in the development of specific

registries of patients who have undergone

these procedures. In addition, the Spine

Service is designing a clinical outcomes

instrument to better assess patient

disability secondary to spinal disease.

Our physicians are also pursuing methods

to enlist a patient’s own tissues to

produce growth factors—either through

platelet-enriched plasma or concentrated

stem cells taken from bone marrow—to

improve fusion. In collaboration with the

Hospital’s Department of Biomechanics,

the Spine Service has continued with

research in orthobiologics specifically

related to bone healing in animal fusion

models. Our clinician-scientists have

studied bone morphogenetic proteins,

demineralized bone matrices, and beta-

tricalcium phosphates. The Spine Service

has also been involved with the

Department of Biomechanics in a

program for retrieval analysis of total

disc replacement arthroplasties that

have been explanted.

Research in gene expression is also

underway to understand the degenerative

cascade that could lead to new methods

of intervention.

The Sports Medicine and Shoulder

Service—one of the largest sports

medicine programs in the country—

provides a multispecialty, interdiscipli-

nary approach to the care of school-aged,

recreational, college, and professional

athletes. In 2008, the members of the

Service had approximately 60,000 patient

visits and performed more than 7,600

surgical procedures. With this volume

of cases, we have been able to acquire a

tremendous amount of information on

the outcomes of surgeries for sports-

related injuries, which is being used to

improve techniques. This effort is being

further advanced with the recent estab-

lishment by the Service of patient

registries in anterior cruciate ligament

(ACL) surgeries, cartilage injuries, and

shoulder instability and rotator cuff

injuries.

During the last 15 years, members of

the Sports Medicine and Shoulder Service

have spent much time and effort on

improving ACL reconstructions—

particularly with regard to reproducing

the normal functioning of the knee. In a

subset of patients where the traditional

approach did not result in a repaired knee

that was as stable as a normal knee, our

surgeons devised a solution that involves

approaching the femur from the front of

the knee, allowing the surgeon to control

the positioning of the graft. Clinical and

biomechanics studies are now ongoing

to determine optimal femoral tunnel

placement.

The application of computer-assisted

navigation to ACL reconstruction is also

under investigation. Models of the ACL

have been created to help understand

kinematics in the normal and injured

knee, in the ACL injured knee, and after

various types of ACL reconstruction.

The Service is also testing ACL

reconstructions to determine which type

of procedure best reproduces the intact

normal knee, and ways to precisely

determine the angle of the new graft.

Our surgeons are also collaborating

with the American Orthopaedic Society

for Sports Medicine to better understand

factors that affect outcomes after revision

ACL reconstruction.

In patients, particularly women, with

patellar instability and multiple knee cap

dislocations, our orthopaedic surgeons

are now performing medial patella

femoral ligament reconstruction, which

has revolutionized care for these patients.

To help address overuse syndromes,

our clinicians have begun using

platelet-rich plasma therapy—injecting

the patient’s own platelet cells, which

contain growth factors, into the tendon

injury to rekindle a healing response.

Research is an extremely productive

component of the Sports Medicine and

Shoulder Service. In 2008, the Service

reorganized its research effort to focus

and pursue in-depth studies in knee

ligament stability, shoulder stability,

rotator cuff tendon healing, and articular

cartilage repair. Its activities span the

spectrum from biological studies and

biomechanical perspectives to

translational and clinical research.

In the area of basic science research, the

Service has an active collaboration with

the Hospital’s Laboratory for Soft Tissue

Research, where scientists are looking at

the influence of trauma on the articular

cartilage in the knee, with particular

interest in factors that lead to the

development of osteoarthritis. A number

of basic science studies are underway

looking at the biology of meniscus

transplantation healing and working

with novel synthetic materials for

meniscus replacement.

With the support of a $1.4 million, four-

year, National Institutes of Health (NIH)

RO1 grant, researchers are also

investigating cellular and molecular

processes, including growth factors such

as bone morphogenic protein, in ligament

healing with particular attention to the

affect of mechanical load on biology. An

additional $1.1 million, three-year NIH

RO1 grant, now nearing completion, has

focused on investigations to determine

how to stimulate ACL repair or regener-

ation at the cellular level. These projects

seek to optimize ligament healing or

accelerate repopulation of the ACL graft

with normal cells, permitting refinement

of current ACL reconstruction techniques

to promote recovery and determine a

scientific basis for the design of postop-

erative rehabilitation. In addition,

members of the Sports Medicine and

Shoulder Service, in collaboration with

the Department of Biomechanics, are

investigating knee ligament mechanics

and shoulder mechanics with a state-of-

the-art robotic system. In conjunction with

the Hospital’s Leon Root, MD, Motion

Analysis Laboratory, Service members

are examining muscle function in

patients with rotator cuff disease.

Service members are also looking at how

to facilitate recovery from rotator cuff

repair at a basic science level, investi-

gating the role that stem cells may play

in regenerating rotator cuff muscles.

The first phase of the stem cell study,

which was conducted with colleagues at

Colorado State University, has seen very

promising results in experimental models.

The goal is to bring that research into

the patient population with a future

expectation of injecting the damaged

muscles with a patient’s own stem cells

to facilitate the healing process.

Our orthopaedic surgeons have been

involved in a number of innovative

improvements for shoulder replacement,

and have developed the first bimodular

total shoulder system available in the

United States.

DEPARTMENT OF BIOMECHANICS

Timothy M. Wright, PhD, DirectorDonald Bartel, PhD, Senior ScientistMarjolein van der Meulen, PhD,

Associate ScientistSuzanne Maher, PhD,

Assistant ScientistJoseph Lipman, MS,

Director of Device Development

The Department of Biomechanics

recently marked the 30th anniversary of

its relationship with Cornell University.

For the past 30 years, the Cornell-Hospital

for Special Surgery Program in Bio-

mechanical Engineering has brought

surgeons and engineers together to

develop joint replacement systems and

address mechanical problems of the

skeleton. These collaborative efforts have

resulted in many of the solutions to

reconstructing joints used today.

The collaboration continues to be

exceptionally productive, with recent

emphasis in a number of important areas,

including the development of new bio-

materials for use in joint reconstruction

and tissue engineering; the use of robotic

technology combined with computer

models to understand the biomechanics

of the shoulder, knee, and ankle joints;

and pioneering work in the role of

mechanical adaptation of bone in osteo-

porosis and implant fixation. These

efforts are focused on explaining factors

beyond the materials and the design of

joint components, such as how joint

replacements interact with surrounding

soft tissues and how the presence of the

implant causes changes to the surround-

ing bone. The long range goal is the

development of joint replacements for

individuals in their 40s and 50s, who lead

very active lives and do not want to mod-

ify their activities after joint replacement.

The Department serves as a comprehen-

sive resource for training as well.

Orthopaedic residents and fellows are

encouraged to participate in projects

within the Department as a way of

learning not only how to conduct research,

but also the fundamental engineering

principles that govern the musculoskeletal

system and how those principles affect

their choice of surgical treatment.

Research projects often utilize the

Department’s implant retrieval system, a

collection of thousands of implants

removed from patients over the past 30

years. During the past year, projects

focused on the performance of advanced

bearing surfaces, including ceramics and

highly cross-linked polyethylenes, and of

partial knee replacements.

The educational opportunities extend to

graduate students from both Cornell and

the Weill Cornell Graduate School of

Medical Sciences. In the past year,

doctoral theses were completed in the

influence of patient, surgical, and implant

factors on the performance of hip resur-

facing and in the combining of computer

models and experiments in studying the

mechanics of the elbow and shoulder

joints. The number of students graduat-

ing from the Program continues to grow,

and their experiences in performing

their graduate research while being

immersed in the clinical and research

environment at the Hospital prepares them

well for academic and industrial careers.

At Hospital for Special Surgery, insight provided by experienced and talented orthopaedic surgeons and scientists, and innovations in musculoskeletal medicine developed through their lead, have been the hallmarks of the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery throughout its rich and dynamic history. The Hospital’s bench-to-bedside collaborations continue to generate discoveries, technologies, and techniques that enhance the care that can be provided to patients with orthopaedic injuries and disorders the world over. The ingenuity and skills of our surgeons and scientists are applied to every type of orthopaedic procedure—from arthroplasty to complextrauma surgery; evidenced in the research setting—from biological investigations to clinical trials and major studies of outcomes; and incorporated in our residency and fellowship programs—from training in a bioskills laboratory to providing protected time to pursue research.
