Arthroscopy
Ross Feller, Todd Borenstein, Amanda Fantry, Roy Kellum, Jason Machan, Brad Blankenhorn, Florian Nickisch. Arthroscopic Quantification of Syndesmotic Instability in a Cadaveric Model. Arthroscopy. 2017 Feb;33(2):436-444. doi: 10.1016/j.arthro.2016.11.008.
Hip Replacement
Anterior hip replacement involves implanting hip prothesis using minimally invasive techniques. The anterior approach spares rather than splits muscle, thereby allowing for faster recovery and fewer post-surgical restrictions on activity. Hemiarthroplasty (partial hip replacement) involves replacing the ball (femoral head) only and not the socket (acetabulum). The surgeon uses this technique when the socket is healthy in older patients who have sustained a hip fracture.
Knee Replacement
Dr. Matthew Grosso joined the practice in September 2020. Previously a Clinical Fellow in Adult Reconstruction at the Rothman Institute in Philadelphia, Dr. Grosso specializes in hip and knee replacement surgery. Dr. Grosso understands that arthritis of the hip and knee can significantly impact your quality of life. These conditions can prevent patients from doing their favorite activities and even cause difficulty in performing everyday tasks. Dr. Grosso is an expert at treating patients with these conditions. When the time is right and non-operative management is no longer helpful, hip and knee replacement surgery may be the best option. These surgeries have some of the most successful outcomes in medicine allowing patients to return to the activities that they love and significantly improve their quality of life.
Reconstructive Surgery
He did his General Surgical training at the University of Rochester and then completed his Orthopedic Residency at the University of Connecticut. He was then a Fellow in Adult Hip and Reconstructive Surgery at the Massachusetts General Hospital and entered practice with Orthopedic Associates of Hartford.
