WEST HARTFORD, CT -- (Marketwire) -- 11/16/09 -- ORLive, your destination for live and on-demand surgery video, starts the week with a live presentation of a liver transplant surgery from Montefiore Medical Center. A live hip replacement surgery featuring the bone-preserving Fitmore hip stem from Zimmer will follow on Tuesday. This week's live broadcasts will be capped off on Thursday with a live interactive broadcast that will feature thoracic surgeons Dr. Daniel Miller and Dr. Scott Swanson discussing the techniques used in complex Video Assisted Thoracic Surgery (or VATS) cases for lung cancer. Each week ORLive invites you to take part in the latest installment of the Virtual Brain Tumor Board and encourages you to preview upcoming broadcasts that will include a live interactive broadcast that will focus on the critical steps in a laparascopic colectomy.

Learn more about this live video broadcast on ORLive.com Tuesday, November 17, 2009, at 7:00 PM EST - Zimmer, a worldwide leader in joint replacement solutions, will air an ORLive webcast of a hip replacement. The live webcast will feature the Zimmer MIS Anterior Supine hip procedure and the Fitmore Hip Stem System. The MIS Anterior Supine hip procedure is designed to improve patient outcomes by minimizing the disruption of soft-tissue through the use of specific instrumentation. Taught through the Zimmer Institute, the surgical technique can be performed either with or without the use of specialized operating tables. The Fitmore Hip System implants and instruments allow for a curved trajectory and insertion along the medial curve, facilitating insertion through smaller incisions. Through this rasp-only femoral preparation and curved introduction, there is no need to open the lateral trochanter, potentially sparing the insertion point of the hip abductors. The stem system, with a tri-taper design for stability, reconstructs each individual's anatomy by matching stem offset with different medial curvatures. Cass Nakasone, MD of Straub Hospital in Honolulu will perform the surgery and Steven Myers MD, FACS of Penrose Hospital in Colorado Springs, will moderate. Viewers will be able to interact and ask questions via the ORLive website.
