ACL and Multi-ligament Knee Reconstruction:
Using arthroscopic technique, Dr. Marx reconstructs the anterior cruciate ligament of the knee (ACL). These tears are often caused by injuries sustained in sport. Dr. Marx uses all techniques and graft sources, including patellar tendon, hamstrings and transplant. He also performs revision surgery for failed ACL reconstruction. In some cases, more than one ligament in the knee requires reconstructive surgery (i.e.: ACL, PCL, MCL, and / or LCL / Posterolateral Corner). Dr. Marx is well known for his expertise in this area having published and lectured extensively on this topic.
Shoulder Surgery for Dislocation or Trauma:

This includes surgery to stabilize shoulders following dislocation or fractures after trauma. Dr. Marx specializes in revision surgery for failed dislocation repairs.
Rotator Cuff Repair:

Dr. Marx performs rotator cuff repair surgery arthroscopically for small and large tears to eliminate pain and improve strength in injured shoulders. The arthroscopic approach involves four small incisions each measuring less than a centimeter.
Arthroscopy and Complex Knee Surgery:

Dr. Marx performs knee arthroscopy with meniscus surgery and meniscus transplantation. Dr. Marx repairs or removes torn sections of the meniscus arthroscopically. He also performs osteotomy (leg realignment), transplants and complex knee-revision surgery.
Shoulder and Knee Replacement:

These procedures are performed for arthritic joints when pain and limitation of movement prevent normal function. Joint replacement surgery can allow patients who are limited by their arthritis to return to a more active and normal lifestyle.

Dr. Marx has special expertise in pediatric and adolescent knee problems. He performs physeal-sparing ACL reconstruction for skeletally immature (growing) patients to avoid injury to the growth plates. He also has extensive experience treating discoid meniscus problems in children, as well as Osteochondritis Dissecans (OCD) and performs a variety of techniques to address these lesions.
