title: Editorial Commentary: Risks Versus Benefits.
abstract: As orthopaedic surgeons, we are constantly weighing the risks versus benefits of the procedures we may perform in our patients. The study by Werner et al. can be used to better inform our patients of the risk of undergoing arthroscopy of the elbow, allowing the orthopaedic surgeon to better weigh the risks versus benefits of the procedure.
