Background: Persistent anterolateral rotatory laxity after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction (ACLR) has been correlated with poor clinical outcomes and graft failure. Hypothesis: We hypothesized that a single-bundle, hamstring ACLR in combination lateral extra-articular tenodesis (LET) would reduce the risk of failure young, active individuals. Study Design: Randomized controlled trial; Level evidence, 1. Methods: This is multicenter, prospective, randomized trial comparing...
Background: Anatomic anterolateral ligament (ALL) reconstruction has been proposed to assist anterior cruciate (ACL) in controlling rotational laxity of the knee. However, biomechanical effects have not reported. Purpose: (1) To investigate effect ALL transection on knee kinematics and (2) determine biomechanics procedures compared with lateral extra-articular tenodesis (LET). Study Design: Controlled laboratory study. Methods: A total 12 cadaveric specimens were tested following sequence:...
Background: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction (ACLR) has higher failure rates in young active patients returning to sports as compared with older, less individuals. Augmentation of ACLR an anterolateral procedure been shown reduce rates; however, indications for this have yet be clearly defined. Purpose/Hypothesis: The purpose study was identify predictors ACL graft high-risk and determine key when hamstring should augmented by a lateral extra-articular tenodesis (LET). We...
Background: Persistent clinical instability after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction may be associated with injury to the anterolateral structures and has led renewed interest in extra-articular procedures. The influence of these procedures on knee kinematics is controversial. Purpose/Hypothesis: purpose was investigate biomechanical properties anatomic (ALL) a modified Lemaire procedure (lateral tenodesis [LET]) combination ACL as compared isolated setting deficient (ALL Kaplan...
Meniscal allograft transplantation (MAT) has become relatively commonplace in specialized sport medicine practice for the treatment of patients with a symptomatic knee after loss functional meniscus. The technique evolved since 1980s, and long-term results continue to improve. However, there still remains significant variation how MAT is performed, as such, opportunity outcome graft survivorship be optimized. purpose this article was develop consensus statement on from key opinion leaders...
A modified Lemaire lateral extra-articular tenodesis (LET) is a procedure that designed to address anterolateral complex (ALC) deficiency. The performed as an augmentation anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) reduce rotatory laxity. Studies have demonstrated improved rotational control and reduced failure rates of ACLR when LET added. This particularly helpful in young patients with high-grade laxity returning contact pivoting sport, the revision scenario.A 6-cm skin incision...
A posterior tibial slope (PTS) >12° has been shown to correlate with failure of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction (ACLR). PTS-reducing osteotomy described correct the PTS in patients a deficient ACL, mostly after primary ACLR.To report radiologic indices, clinical outcomes, and postoperative complications performed concurrently revision ACLR (R-ACLR).Case series; Level evidence, 4.A review medical records at 3 institutions was who had undergone R-ACLR between August 2010...
Background: Injuries to the deep medial collateral ligament (dMCL) and partial superficial MCL (psMCL) can cause anteromedial rotatory instability; however, contribution of each these injuries in restraining instability effect on anterior cruciate (ACL) load remain unknown. Purpose: To investigate contributions different structures tibiofemoral motion evaluate through ACL after injury, especially combined dMCL/psMCL injury. Study Design: Controlled laboratory study. Methods: Sixteen...
The idea of using platelet rich plasma (PRP) in medicine has been around since the 1970s. It is only more recently that its use employed area musculoskeletal science. Platelet this received much media attention being used by many celebrity sports athletes for injuries. Therefore it important practitioner to be aware concepts surrounding and application. In article we cover what is, how prepared administered, potential clinical application, current literature discusses various areas
Background: The individual kinematic roles of the anterolateral ligament (ALL) and distal iliotibial band Kaplan fibers in setting anterior cruciate (ACL) deficiency require further clarification. This will improve understanding their potential contribution to residual rotational laxity after ACL reconstruction may influence selection an extra-articular technique, which is currently a matter debate. Hypothesis/Purpose: To compare role ALL stabilizing knee against tibial internal rotation,...
