Race-insurance disparities in prostate patients' magnetic resonance imaging biopsies and their subsequent cancer care: a New York State cohort study
Am J Clin Exp Urol. 2021 Dec 15;9(6):435-455. eCollection 2021.ABSTRACTFor organ-confined prostate cancer, socioeconomic factors influencing Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)-guided biopsy utilization and downstream prostate cancer patients' care are unknown. This retrospective, observational cohort study used the New York Statewide Planning and Research Cooperative System (SPARCS) billing-code driven database to examine the impact of prostate patients' socioeconomic characteristics on prostate cancer care defined as initial biopsy, 2-month post-biopsy cancer diagnoses, and within 1-year cancer-related intervention, control...

Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Repair for Recurrent Patellar Instability: Successful Outcomes Among Patients With Low Coronal Malalignment and Normal Patellar Height
Orthopedics. 2021 Nov 8:1-7. doi: 10.3928/01477447-20211101-10. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMedial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) repair is discouraged for the treatment of chronic, recurrent patellar instability (RPI) because of high reported failure rates. However, the senior author uses MPFL repair for chronic RPI in the setting of low tibial tubercle-trochlear groove (TT-TG) distance. In this retrospective case series, we report results and evaluate outcome predictors. We used billing records to identify all patients, 14 years or older, who underwent isolated repair for chronic RPI performed by a single surgeon betwe...
