Background. The COVID-19 pandemic caused an abrupt disruption in fellowship training, with most in-person teaching ceasing in mid-March 2020. An online lecture series was quickly initiated named the Fellows Online COVID-19 AAHKS Learning (FOCAL) initiative. This study will summarize the results of that initiative. Methods. Beginning March 31, 2020, an online teaching program was initiated. Adult

We used single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) to determine the long-term risk of degenerative change after
The Syn-VAR RCT is the first of its kind comparing hamstrings autograft v synthetic neoligament for MPFL reconstruction. Our aim is to evaluate short and long term patient related outcomes measures (PROMs) following synthetic / autologous MPFL reconstruction in a heterogenous cohort of patients with recurrent patellar instability. 20 patients meeting inclusion criteria were recruited and randomised. Standardised surgery was performed by a single surgeon in Altnagelvin Hospital with data collected over 3 years from 2016. Kujala score was the primary outcome measure with data captured preoperatively and 12 weeks/2 years postoperatively. Secondary outcomes included four other validated scores and complications including Norwich Patellar Instability, Lysholm, IKDC and BanffAbstract
