From the size of our award-winning department, to the scope of our reach in the orthopaedic world and the new space we call home, we continue to build upon a solid foundation of exceptional patient care, cutting-edge research and innovative education. This is our framework for growth, and we’re leading the way one breakthrough at a time. Framework For Growth | 1 MISSION FOR GROWTH he Department of Orthopaedic Surgery and Rehabilitation has always strived to be a local and national leader in orthopaedic care. Above all, our mission is to advance the future of orthopaedic medicine by providing state-of-the-art patient care, Tinnovative education and cutting-edge research. In academic medicine we often speak of our Only by successfully integrating each of the mission as a “three-legged stool,” where each three legs can we give patients the best possible leg stands for a different aspect of our service care, educate the next generation of orthopaedic and provides the basic framework of our practice. surgeons and develop top-notch procedures and Each leg is vital for the success of not only the techniques for the future. academic mission, but also the other two legs. 2 | UNMC Orthopaedic 2016 Report We specialize in the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of musculoskeletal disorders in children, adolescents and adults. Our service provides quality, cost-effective care in each of the orthopaedic subspecialties: adult reconstructive surgery, hand and upper extremity surgery, shoulder and elbow surgery, orthopaedic oncology, orthopaedic traumatology, spine surgery, sports medicine and pediatric orthopaedics. PATIENT CARE PATIENT Through clinical outcomes studies and collaborative projects, our surgeons conduct world-class research in the areas of musculoskeletal diseases, molecular biology and genetics. At our Biomechanics and Advanced Surgical Technologies Laboratory, research faculty are dedicated to the development of less invasive surgical techniques, knee implant simulation and computer- RESEARCH aided robotic surgery. Our residency training program is a competitive, challenging program that equips residents with the very best tools and training. By investing in education we are not only creating tomorrow’s top orthopaedic surgeons, but also cultivating promising educators who will teach for generations to come. Over the course of five years, our residents train in all nine orthopaedic specialties with rotations at Nebraska Medicine and other EDUCATION practices throughout the Omaha community. Framework For Growth | 3 MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIR he Department of Orthopaedic Surgery and Rehabilitation at the University of Nebraska Medical Center has long been dedicated to our mission of improving the quality of orthopaedic care throughout Nebraska and beyond. The members of our department are committed to finding new ways of developing more advanced patient care, important breakthroughs in research and superior education of the next generation of orthopaedic surgeons. As part of this commitment, we are pleased to present our sixth biennial year-end Treport, Framework for Growth.

Complications associated with ceramic-on-polyethylene articulations have been studied extensively, however, only few reports have described its catastrophic wear and concurrent pseudotumor formation. The etiology of this biological reaction and concurrency of pseudotumor formation with metallosis remain unclear. We report two cases of wear of the acetabular liner in a ceramic-on-polyethylene prosthesis due to total hip arthroplasty (THA) long time ago. They came back to the clinic with the history of worsening hip pain and abnormal radiological and clinical findings. Then they underwent surgery and metallosis and pseudotumors were detected and revisions were performed for them. It is necessary to evaluate patients underwent THA complaining of hip pain for component wear and be checked the cup appear well fixing and fairly oriented on follow-up radiographies. Close follow ups can prevent accelerated polyethylene wear in ceramic-on-polyethylene coupling THA.

  • Dr. Mark Dolan Specializes in Hip and Knee Replacement Surgery, Hip Resurfacing, and Hip Arthroscopy/Hip Preservation Surgery
    Dr. Mark Dolan specializes in hip and knee replacement surgery, hip resurfacing, and hip arthroscopy/hip preservation surgery. Dr. Dolan is originally from South Bend, Indiana and a graduate of the University of Notre Dame. He attended Indiana University School of Medicine before moving to Chicago to continue his education in orthopaedic surgery as a resident in Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine’s Department of Orthopaedic Surgery. After residency he completed a fellowship in Adult Reconstruction and Joint Replacement Surgery at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York where he gained advanced training in hip and knee replacement surgery, hip resurfacing, and revision total joint surgery. Following this year long fellowship, he stayed at the Hospital for Special Surgery to obtain additional experience in providing care for young adults with hip pain. This included additional study in hip arthroscopy and hip preservation surgery. Dr. Dolan has a specific interest in hip disorders and strives to provide comprehensive care to patients suffering from hip pain. This includes non-operative treatment as well as total joint replacement, hip resurfacing, and arthroscopic hip surgery (athletic hip injuries, hip joint preservation surgery, femoracetabular impingement (FAI), and acetabular labral injuries). Dr. Dolan utilizes this wide array of treatment options to best serve his patients, working with each patient to develop a focused and individualized treatment plan. As a former varsity soccer player at Notre Dame and an active runner and skier, Dr. Dolan appreciates the importance of maintaining an active lifestyle. His goal is to relieve your pain and improve your mobility, thereby allowing you to return to an active life.
