FL Talks Rib Plating Vs. Cryoablation

Welcome to FractureLine: the official weekly news feed from the Chest Wall Injury Society, where we will listen to all the bottom-line CWIS updates, shout-outs, fun facts, and weekly banter!

This week, we chat with Dr. Jaron Butterfield, MD (Prisma Health Midlands, Columbia, SC) about his case report entitled "Cryoablation versus rib plating: Is the real problem pain control or chest wall instability?" (https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37347011/#full-view-affiliation-1). Dr. Butterfield will soon join the Desert Regional Medical Center team in Palm Springs, CA, for his Trauma Critical Care Fellowship this year.

Take a listen and join the fun!
