About
Joseph Cusano is an emerging leader in orthopedic biomechanics, with a focused expertise in shoulder instability and surgical repair techniques. His research centers on optimizing surgical outcomes for Hill-Sachs lesions—a common bone defect in recurrent anterior shoulder dislocations. Cusano’s most notable contribution is his landmark 2024 study, “Both Single‐ and Double‐anchor Remplissage Techniques Restore Native Stability in a Cadaveric Model of Hill‐Sachs Lesions,” which employed a sophisticated robotic testing system to evaluate fixation strategies. This work demonstrated that both single- and double-anchor remplissage effectively restore native glenohumeral stability, providing critical evidence for surgeons seeking to minimize hardware while maximizing patient outcomes. Though early in his career, Cusano’s research has already garnered citations, reflecting its immediate relevance to clinical practice. His rigorous cadaveric models and biomechanical analyses bridge the gap between engineering principles and surgical decision-making, offering actionable insights for treating anterior shoulder instability. As his citation count grows, Cusano is poised to shape future guidelines in sports medicine and orthopedic surgery, making him a researcher to watch for innovations in joint preservation and repair.
