Muscle Sparing Knee Replacement Surgery

Muscle Sparing Knee Replacement Surgery

Muscle sparing knee replacement uses the subvastus surgical approach to access the knee joint by lifting the quadriceps muscle rather than cutting through it. This technique keeps all four quadriceps muscles intact as a single unit, which can lead to less postoperative pain, reduced blood loss, earlier mobility, and a faster overall recovery compared to the traditional medial parapatellar approach. Dr. Calendine explains how combining the subvastus approach with robotic assisted surgery delivers both soft tissue protection and precision bone preparation, who qualifies for the procedure, what to expect during recovery, and why this pairing is changing outcomes for knee replacement patients in Middle Tennessee.

Shoulder Impingement Syndrome: How is it Diagnosed?

Shoulder Impingement Syndrome: How is it Diagnosed?

Blog Grid Summary — Shoulder Impingement Syndrome Shoulder pain when reaching overhead is one of the most common orthopedic complaints — and shoulder impingement syndrome is the leading cause, accounting for nearly half of all shoulder pain cases. This condition occurs when the rotator cuff tendons become compressed beneath the acromion, the bony arch of the shoulder blade, leading to pain, inflammation, and limited mobility. Dr. Cory Calendine explains how orthopedic surgeons use clinical tests like the Hawkins-Kennedy exam to accurately diagnose impingement, what imaging reveals about the underlying condition, and which treatment options - from physical therapy and corticosteroid injections to minimally invasive surgery - deliver the best outcomes for patients in Nashville, Franklin, and Brentwood, Tennessee.
