Episode Synopsis "Journal of ISAKOS first podcast"

Welcome to the inaugural issue of JISAKOS. See full issue here: http://jisakos.bmj.com/content/1/1. Social Media Editor, Peter D. Fabricant, MD, MPH, focuses on the introductory Editorial by Editor-in-Chief Niek van Dijk, MD, PhD, which describes the current orthopaedic sports medicine landscape and the journal's mission. See Editorial here: http://jisakos.bmj.com/content/1/1/1. The podcast also summarises the reviews on acute ACL reconstruction (ACLR) damage compared to delayed or non-operative treatment in children and adolescents under age 18 and all the up-to-date evidence related to knee osteoarthritis (OA) after revision ACL. Both must reads for any orthopedic surgeon performing ACL or PCL reconstruction. Early ACL reconstruction in children leads to less meniscal and articular cartilage damage when compared with conservative or delayed treatment: http://jisakos.bmj.com/content/1/1/10. Revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction does not prevent progression in one out of five patients of osteoarthritis: a meta-analysis of prevalence and progression of osteoarthritis: http://jisakos.bmj.com/content/1/1/16.
