Erin Meisel

Erin Meisel is a Clinical Assistant Professor of Orthopaedic Surgery at the Keck School of Medicine, University of Southern California. Her clinical and research focus centers on pediatric orthopedics, particularly brachial plexus birth injuries, reconstructive surgery, and fracture management.

Her work emphasizes innovative surgical techniques, such as tendon transfers and bone grafting, alongside clinical reviews of brachial plexus pathophysiology and outcomes. Dr. Meisel’s research spans pediatric trauma, neuromuscular disorders, and congenital limb anomalies, with a strong emphasis on improving functional and anatomical outcomes through evidence-based practices.

Recent publications highlight her contributions to understanding glenohumeral dysplasia, age-related predictors in elbow stiffness, and optimizing bone graft locations. Her studies often bridge surgical innovation with clinical efficacy, particularly in special populations like non-ambulatory children.

While no scientific awards are explicitly listed, her prolific publication record reflects dedication to advancing pediatric orthopedic care. Her work integrates surgical technique evaluations, complication mitigation strategies, and multidisciplinary approaches to complex cases.
