Rick Sasso, MD

In addition to planning and coordinating the symposium on spinal trauma, previously addressed in a prior blog entry, at the annual American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons meeting I also served as faculty for Instructional Course lectures. One Instructional Course was entitled “Differentiating Cervical Spine and Shoulder Pathology: Common Disorders and Key Points of Evaluation and Treatment.” This continuing medical education talk focused on the overlap of cervical spine and shoulder pathology, and addressed the diagnostic methods for differentiation.  One of the co-presenters of this session was Paul Kraemer, MD. Dr. Kraemer is also a spine surgeon with Indiana Spine Group.
