The article discusses how rising obesity rates will become a growing issue for T&O, what surgeons need to be aware of and how they can plan. The authors state that ‘the use of BMI as a sole criterion to limit access to orthopaedic surgery is not evidence-based and should be challenged.’ Read the article at: https://bit.ly/4bsA8Ex
