In this video, Dr. William Mackenzie gives an update on Achondroplasia and Morquio Syndrome. In the first segment, Dr. Mackenzie talks about the genetic basis of achondroplasia and the associated physical exam findings. The second segment of the video discusses the characteristics of Morquio syndrome.
In this video, Dr. Peter Stevens provides a case-based discussion on the limitations for the use of guided growth including physiologic deformities, skeletal maturity, less than one year of remaining growth, and extensive physeal damage.
In this video, Dr. Matías Sepúlveda Oviedo demonstrates how to apply a pediatric arm splint.
In the first segment on back pain in children, Dr. Amr Abdelgawad provides a discussion on the common causes and general management of back pain in children.
In this second segment on back pain in children, Dr. Amr Abdelgawad provides a discussion on what cases of back pain in children can be managed by primary care and those that require referral to an orthopedic surgeon.

In the introductory segment on the biomechanics of the pediatric foot, Dr. Vince Mosca provides a brief introduction to his series.
In the first segment on the biomechanics of the pediatric foot, Dr. Vince Mosca shares his first principle, the foot is not a joint. He then applies this principle to cavovarus and flatfoot deformities.
In the second segment on the biomechanics of the pediatric foot, Dr. Vince Mosca discusses subtalar joint position and motion.
In the third segment on the biomechanics of the pediatric foot, Dr. Vince Mosca describes the acetabulum pedis and compares and contrasts this structure with the acetabulum pelvis.
In the fourth segment on the biomechanics of the pediatric foot, Dr. Vince Mosca discusses how the shape of the foot is determined by the bones and ligaments in the foot and not the muscles.
In the fifth and sixth segments on the biomechanics of the pediatric foot, Dr. Vince Mosca discusses how muscle balancing will not correct structural foot deformities.
