Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the quality patient education materials accessible through popular online search engines regarding anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries and reconstruction (ACLR). Methods: Two terms (“ACL surgery” “ACL reconstruction”) were entered into three (Google, Yahoo, Bing). information was scored using a novel scoring system developed overseen by sports medicine orthopedic clinical research fellows fellowship-trained surgeons. Website quality,...
We highlight the rare case of an atraumatic, intra-articular ganglion cyst lateral knee deep to iliotibial band that was successfully treated nonoperatively, a pathology yet be reported in orthopedic literature.
The osteochondral autograft transfer system (OATS) procedure is at the forefront of cartilage restoration surgeries knee, offering superior return to sport rates and long-term functionality. This technique reports an arthroscopic OATS lateral femoral condyle with donor-site backfill using allograft plug. Potential complications from unfilled donor site sockets are eliminated through
Long head biceps tendon pathology is a substantial contributor to anterior shoulder pain and often requires surgical intervention offer return normal functionality. Surgical treatment options consist of both open arthroscopic tenodesis or tenotomy the long brachii. Several techniques exist for biceps, although current debate continues regarding which approach optimal symptomatic bicep pathology. In this technical note, we describe subpectoral using an all-suture anchor. Our technique offers...
Introduction Numerous surgical techniques to address a type III and V acromioclavicular (AC) joint separation have been described in the literature, but preferred standard approach is still debate. Current approaches include anatomic reduction, coracoclavicular (CC) ligament reconstruction, reconstruction of joint. In this case series, subjects received that avoids metal anchors utilizes suture cerclage tensioning system achieve adequate reduction. Surgical technique An AC repair was...
Key Clinical Message We highlight the rare case of arthroscopic repair a traumatic tear following total shoulder arthroplasty. Moreover, there is no reported literature describing rotator cuff after Abstract This report highlights an involving full‐thickness tears supraspinatus and infraspinatus arthroplasty performed 7 years prior. To our best knowledge, published exists highlighting
The surgical fixation of an acute on chronic pectoralis major rupture with inciting injury 7 years prior has never been reported in the literature. Thus, we report first case repair active male patient who underwent successful intervention and review pathophysiology treatment tears.
Pathology of the long head biceps tendon is a known cause anterior shoulder pain. Current surgical management options include tenotomy and tenodesis. Tenodesis can be performed arthroscopically or as an open procedure. Arthroscopic tenodesis typically uses suprapectoral attachment, which may fail to address pathology in bicipital groove. Open carries iatrogenic risk neurovascular structures fracture while drilling, well morbidity This technique paper describes mini-open subpectoral approach...
Acromioclavicular joint separation is a common shoulder injury. Grade I and II may be treated nonoperatively, whereas higher grades tend to require surgical intervention. Various repair techniques have been described in the literature, with no consensus on gold standard. This Technical Note describes our use of graft-passing instrument pass suture under coracoid during an anatomic reconstruction both acromioclavicular coracoclavicular ligaments. Although this approach technically...
Arthroscopic stabilization for posterior shoulder instability is well documented in the literature, offering good to excellent clinical outcomes after injury with favorable return-to-sport and patient satisfaction rates. Posterior capsulorrhaphy addresses recurrent laxity by decreasing size of capsule through arthroscopic placement sutures, addition addressing labral tears any intra-articular pathology within joint. This technical note describes an active patient. technique uses a single...
