ICL 1: Rehabbing the Arthroplasty: Michael T. Freehill, MD This ICL will focus on anatomic and reverse total shoulder arthroplasty. Important details of the anatomic shoulder arthroplasty will be discussed such as subscapularis management, especially in the setting of stemless components. The reverse total shoulder arthroplasty will also discuss subscapularis management and inlay and onlay humeral components, as well as lateralization and distalization. An emphasis will be placed on the rehabilitation protocols and pearls for these different scenarios within reverse shoulder arthroplasty. *ICL is currently at capacity. Please check back during the Annual Meeting for any available spaces.*
ICL 2: Getting Elbow Arthroplasty Right: Ways to Improve Outcomes and Reduce Complications: Mark E. Morrey, MD In this ICL we will use a case format to illustrate the pearls and pitfalls of elbow arthroplasty technique from approach to implantation, how to avoid and treat complications, and improve results. *ICL is currently at capacity. Please check back during the Annual Meeting for any available spaces.*
ICL 3: Shoulder Instability and Bone Loss – a Case Based Approach: William N. Levine, MD We will highlight all of the current literature, surgical options, detailed pearls and pitfalls of bone procedures for shoulder instability.
ICL 4: My Arthroscopic Bankart Failed, Now What? Revision Treatment Options for Recurrent Instability Following Failed Anterior Arthroscopic Stabilization: Albert Lin, MD Recurrence following arthroscopic Bankart repair is a common scenario, often without significant bone loss. Optimal revision options are discussed with a focus on evolving literature.
ICL 5: Complications in Shoulder Arthroplasty: Why Did This Happen and How Do I get Out of This?: Julie Y. Bishop, MD Complications happen in shoulder arthroplasty, and they can be daunting. The purpose of this ICL is to review the most common arthroplasty related complications and through didactics and case-based presentations, review why these complications may have occurred, discuss if they could have been avoided and finally review how to successfully address the situation to lead to a good patient outcome. we will cover subscapularis failure in aTSA; the painful/stiff arthroplasty; reverse instability and acromion stress fractures and then have a case based discussion *ICL is currently at capacity.

ICL 8: All You Need to Know about Stemless Reverse Shoulder Arthroplasty: Pierre L. Métais, MD Stemless shoulder prostheses offer major benefits: they save bone stock, save time and simplify revision. It has been clearly established that the stemless anatomic shoulder prosthesis is the ideal solution. It seems more difficult to convince surgeons that the reverse stemless prosthesis is also a high-performance solution. Several questions arise: How do you choose the patient, and should you choose the patient? How do we assess metaphyseal bone stock and quality? What are the technical specifics? What has European experience taught us? How can specific complications be avoided? It’s only by understanding these specific points that stemless reverse shoulder arthroplasty can be fitted safely. *ICL is currently at capacity. Please check back during the Annual Meeting for any available spaces.*
ICL 9: Treatment of Rotator Cuff Tears: Around the World From Partial Thickness to Irreparable: Jon JP Warner, MD As the arthroscopic techniques in the upper extremity continue to evolve, so does the minimally invasive treatment armamentarium of upper extremity surgeons. In this ICL, the attendees will learn about the considerations for all of the different types of rotator cuff tears and the nuances associated with each type of possible treatment. We will cover the spectrum of rotator cuff pathology, including small full thickness tears, large or massive reparable tears, subscapularis tears, and irreparable tears. Participants will learn about full thickness repairs with and without augmentation4, 5, subscapularis repairs4, 6-12, superior capsular reconstruction13-15, shoulder tendon transfers16-26 and reverse shoulder arthroplasty27-30. With an international panel of experts in these procedures, the goal will be to teach when and how to perform each technique in rotator cuff surgery, with a focus on technical tips and tricks from each expert. Our goal is that all attendees will feel comfortable not only choosing which is their preferred technique for each type of rotator cuff tear in various clinical situations, but also will be armed with many of these different options in their toolbelt. *ICL is currently at capacity. Please check back during the Annual Meeting for any available spaces.*
ICL 10: Optimizing Rotator Cuff Healing in Challenging Rotator Cuff Tears in 2024: Robert Z. Tashjian, MD Various surgical techniques can be implemented to improve rotator cuff healing including various repair constructs and biologic augments including cellular (platelet rich plasma, stem cells) and structural (grafts) augmentations. Cellular augmentations have been reported with varying success. Biologic only grafts (onlay and interposition) have been described in animal models to improve the histologic properties of repairs with limited supporting clinical data. Structural grafts, both synthetic and allograft, have been utilized to improved tendon healing which in certain cases have proven successful although current indications are unclear given the added time and cost of augmentation. Understanding a strategy to implement each of these biologic options will be critical to optimize clinical success without needlessly increasing surgical morbidity or cost. *ICL is currently at capacity.

Faculty Disclosure of Relevant Financial Relationships
Many faculty members have financial relationships with ineligible companies. An ineligible company is defined as those companies whose primary business is producing, marketing, selling, re-selling, or distributing healthcare products used by or on patients. To ensure that these relationships do not influence our accredited educational activity, ASES requires all faculty members to disclose all relevant financial relationships with any ineligible company(ies) within the past 24 months. Disclosure includes documentation of the name of the ineligible company and the nature of the relationship. ASES subsequently identifies relevant financial relationships and mitigates such relationships prior to the individual assuming their role.
