Kevin D. Plancher, MD, MPHhttps://orthosummit.com/speaker/kevin-d-plancher-md-mph/<![CDATA[Matt Stellwagen]]>Sun, 11 Feb 2018 05:15:05 +0000http://orthosummit.com/?post_type=speakers&p=2095<![CDATA[

DR. KEVIN D. PLANCHER earned his Bachelor’s degree in chemistry and biochemistry from Trinity College in Hartford, CT. He then went on to earn his Master’s in Science in Physiology and Doctorate in Medicine from Georgetown University in Washington, DC. Dr. Plancher completed his residency at Harvard University’s Combined Orthopaedic program. He then went on to complete two post-graduate fellowships, the first at The Indiana Hand Center focusing on hand and microvascular surgery. The second was at the world-renowned Steadman-Hawkins Clinic, focusing on sports medicine and reconstruction of the shoulder and knee.

Dr. Plancher lectures globally on issues related to orthopaedic procedures and sports injury management. He most recently chaired the “Orthopaedic Summit in Evolving Techniques”, a national conference attended by over 550 orthopaedic and sports medicine physicians in an effort to teach evolving techniques and treatments in sports medicine. Dr. Plancher is a Clinical Professor in Orthopaedics at Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York and is a member of many prestigious national and international societies and associations, and is a founding member for the Educational Enhancement Fund of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons. Dr. Plancher is a leading orthopaedic surgeon and sports medicine expert with extensive knowledge in knee, shoulder, elbow, and hand injuries. He specializes in treating anterior cruciate ligament tears and shoulder injuries, which he sees frequently as a physician for the U.S. Ski Team and former Head Team Physician for Manhattanville College and League Physician for Major League Lacrosse. His minimally invasive procedures include: partial knee replacements, arthroscopic rotator cuff repairs, arthroscopic Bankart repairs, and endoscopic elbow release for severe tennis elbow. He also specializes in total and reverse shoulder, and knee replacements. Dr. Plancher developed the arthroscopic technique for releasing a nerve for posterior shoulder pain. He has a keen interest in adolescent sports injuries and injury prevention for young female athletes. In addition, Dr. Plancher is the Fellowship Director of an ACGME accredited sports medicine program in NYC and CT. In 2001, he founded “The Orthopaedic Foundation for Active Lifestyles,” a non-profit 501 (c) (3) foundation focused on maintaining and enhancing the physical well-being of active individuals through the development and promotion of research and supporting technologies. OFALS runs health-education seminars for individuals with arthritis; sports injury prevention; and rehabilitation for “weekend warriors.”

His campaign, “Educating our Kids for a Pain Free Tomorrow” brings young scholars to the Foundation’s BioSkills lab for the “Doctor for the Day” program where they operate on synthetic limbs and use simulated surgical techniques. The foundation also participates in clinical trials, and Dr. Plancher serves as principal investigator in a five-year study involving cartilage replacement.

FAQs

Can you heal a rotator cuff tear without surgery? ›

Even though most tears cannot heal on their own, you can often achieve good function without surgery. If, however, you are active or use your arm for overhead work or sports, surgery is most often recommended because many tears will not heal without surgery.

Can a rotator cuff tear heal on its own? ›

Rotator cuff tears don't heal on their own without surgery, but many people can improve functionally and decrease pain with nonsurgical treatment by strengthening their shoulder muscles.

How long does it take for a torn rotator cuff to heal? ›

Often times the stiffness can be treated, and the pain resolves. It takes the repaired rotator cuff tendons about six weeks to heal initially to the bone, three months to form a relatively strong attachment to the bone, and about six to nine months before the tendon is completely healed to the bone.

Should I be worried about a rotator cuff tear? ›

Sometimes, rotator cuff tears may occur from a single injury. In those circ*mstances, people should seek medical advice quickly because they might need surgery.

Is it OK to not repair a torn rotator cuff? ›

If you have severe shoulder weakness, rest and physiotherapy alone may not help. Without any treatment, rotator cuff disorders may get worse. Over time you may have more pain and may lose range of motion and strength in your shoulder.

What is the fastest way to heal a torn rotator cuff? ›

Torn Rotator Cuff? Try These 4 Non-Surgical Treatments That Really Work
  1. Rest and activity modification. In many cases, resting your shoulder is the best medicine to allow swelling and other symptoms to subside. ...
  2. Anti-inflammatory medications. ...
  3. Injection treatments. ...
  4. Physical and occupational therapy.

What happens if a torn rotator cuff goes untreated? ›

If left untreated, a rotator cuff tear can severely restrict function and range of motion. The tear can also increase over time. This may cause partial rotator cuff tears to progress to total tears.

Should I exercise my rotator cuff if it hurts? ›

When you have rotator cuff pain, range-of-motion and strengthening exercises are key. “Range of motion work helps maintain joint mobility and the flexibility of shoulder muscles and tendons,” says Dr. Clark.

Can you still use your arm with a torn rotator cuff? ›

Those are small to medium tears. Patients still have the ability to raise their arm, and they can still do day-to-day things, but they tend to have some pain. So, being able to use the arm and move it and raise it above your head does not necessarily mean that the rotator cuff is intact.

When is it too late for rotator cuff surgery? ›

Rotator cuff tears usually produce symptoms of weakness and pain especially on trying to lift the arm. When an acute injury results in a rotator cuff tear consideration should be given to a surgical repair within six weeks of the injury to avoid atrophy of the muscle and tendon.

What can be mistaken for a torn rotator cuff? ›

The most common condition that mimics a rotator cuff tear is shoulder stiffness or a frozen shoulder. This condition is characterized by reduced range of motion — the shoulder will only move so far before starting to hurt. It is common for a patient to develop a stiff and painful shoulder with no injury.

Does a torn rotator hurt all the time? ›

Rotator cuff tendon tears often cause pain at night. The pain may even wake you. During the day, the pain is more tolerable, and usually only hurts with certain movements, such as overhead or reaching toward the back. Over time, the symptoms become much worse and are not relieved by medicines, rest, or exercise.

Do you ever fully recover from a torn rotator cuff? ›

In most cases, a rotator cuff tear will not heal on its own. If your pain and other symptoms persist despite conservative treatment such as steroid injections and physical therapy, it's time to speak with a shoulder specialist. Surgical repair is often necessary to restore shoulder function and relieve pain.

What happens if you ignore a rotator cuff tear? ›

Don't Ignore Rotator Cuff Problems

Most torn rotator cuffs will not heal on their own, and without treatment, rotator cuff tears can get worse. “The best option for people experiencing even mild shoulder pain is to discuss it with an orthopedic specialist before the pain worsens,” Dr. Sardana says.

Is there an alternative to rotator cuff surgery? ›

SoftWave Therapy

Often, the most effective and least invasive solution to rotator cuff injury is to allow the body's own healing process to take the lead. SoftWave therapy uses low-intensity, unfocused energy permeated through the damaged tissue, kickstarting the natural regeneration processes at the cellular level.
