Without getting into too much detail, I saw the MRI and spoke to a special person or doctor....who was..fill in the blank.

Yeah that’s too much detail.

But only but the standards laid out by HIPAA

It matches up with what the team has released. I have no reason to doubt the guy.

I’ll be alerting Oschner to let them know of this potential HIPAA violation involving a high profile patient who is employed by a partner of Oschner.

Edit: I’m not really contacting anybody.

Shrug. I could’ve given the exact same info based on Tigerwise’s post and the fact I had Derrius Guice on my fantasy team.

I'm pretty sure that HIPPA won't be a problem here. There already has been so much released publicly, it could be that HIPPA isn't applicable to this message board discussion.

I think it does though.

It's public knowledge about the surgery and whatnot, but I think it's actually against it to go into detail that he is a provider for zion, he himself reviewed an imaging study or detailed rehab about Zions condition.

Sorry, we don’t carry urethral swabs that small. Try the health unit!

Yeah I don’t think he’s wrong about that. Dr. Andrews made millions off of disclosing he’s patient’s initial condition to promote their progression.

Cajun first off, curious what your background is. I'm in my last year of med school.

I'm curious if you have any insight as to why surgeons chose a total/partial meniscectomy vs repair esp when it comes to a lateral injury vs a medial one. Seems like partial meniscectomies are more popular due to the speed of recovery, but repairs have better long-term results. I assume the more in the "white zone" the more times surgeons move towards meniscectomy over repair because lack of blood flow.

curious your thoughts.

From “Acadiana”. Started as a registered nurse. Went back to school. Went to LSU medical school in Nola. won’t specify anymore but I enjoy internal/endocrine disorders...also sports medicine. I’ll leave it at that. Have had a lot of experience with sports as a player and physician. And congrats with almost finishing. If I had to do it over again I would have been a PA or NP blahhh.

So the belief is that a “repair” is more efficient in the long run. Relate this to a labrum. Imagine a Bankart tear of the labrum. What’s more efficient in the long run? Trimming a labrum and removing the dead cartilage or anchoring/suturing it back to the glenoid cavity? You risk suffering from subluxations but can return to physical activity much faster. However, frequent subluxations can cause a hill sach deformity which when repetitive, can kill the bone (shoulder replacement) or cause osteoarthritis.

It’s similar. A repair will anchor the meniscus back in place. Typically it’s done for a full meniscus tear when you have other underlying injuries such as a MCL or LCL tear. It gives extra stability but takes much longer to heal.

There was no reason for a total because of the fact that only a small portion of his lateral was torn off. Doctors who chose a partial do so to
get patients back to temporary activity quicker. This would be someone like Steph curry in second round of playoffs who wants to come back for the final series..

A partial is the most common. It’s a simple trim. Just like a dead leaf on a plant. Once cartilage is torn, it’s dead. It barely or almost never has any blood supply. This can cause pain and irritation (think a hangnail). So they do a partial to trim this portion of. In the long run it increases chances of arthritis. But by the time he would develop this, his knees would have been under so much wear in tear it would be likely he wouldn’t have much of a meniscus left on either knee. This is the perfect procedure for him. Trim it now so we don’t have to worry later. It wasn’t torn enough for complete removal or for a repair. The damage was done, it couldn’t be anchored.

Also medial tears are more “serious” bc majority of impact usually occurs through medial movement. In this case, sometimes a repair is better. For a lateral tear, it’s most often a partial.

Does this help at all?

No man.. that dude can be a douche.. I would have loved to argue many of his points. But I did and still do find him very informative. However, I think Twitter best fits his personality.

Crewz conveniently quit the board (lol) like a week or two after a few og FO people were let go.


Mac "went out on top" by quitting TD as soon as his info source dried up.

With approval from the team or a representative of said player. Slightly different.
