Background: Most surgeons believe that graft choice for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction is an important factor related to outcome; however, revision may be limited due previously used grafts. Hypotheses: Autograft use would result in increased sports function, activity level, and decreased osteoarthritis symptoms (as measured by validated patient-reported outcome instruments). failure reoperation rate 2 years after ACL reconstruction. Study Design: Cohort study; Level of...
Background: At the time of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction, there are usually concurrent meniscal and articular cartilage injuries. It is unclear if a significant difference between intra-articular injuries at primary ACL reconstruction compared with revision reconstruction.

In between 2013 2014 consisting 35 questions regarding technique, graft choice, fixation method, perioperative care ACL was sent electronically members...
Background: Revision anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction has been documented to have worse outcomes compared with primary ACL reconstructions. Purpose/Hypothesis: The purpose of this study was determine if the prevalence, location, and/or degree meniscal and chondral damage noted at time revision predicts activity level, sports function, osteoarthritis symptoms 2-year follow-up. hypothesis that loss high-grade will result in lower levels, decreased participation, more pain,...
Background: While revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) can be performed to restore knee stability and improve patient activity levels, outcomes after this surgery are reported inferior those primary ACLR. Further reoperations ACLR have an even more profound effect on satisfaction outcomes. However, there is a current lack of information regarding the rate risk factors for subsequent Purpose: To report reoperations, procedures performed, reoperation 2 years Study Design:...
Background: Although graft choice may be limited in the revision setting based on previously used grafts, most surgeons believe that for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction is an important factor related to outcome. Hypothesis: In ACL setting, there would no difference between autograft and allograft rerupture rate patient-reported outcomes (PROs) at 6-year follow-up. Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 2. Methods: Patients who had surgery were identified prospectively...
Background: Knees undergoing revision anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction typically have more intra-articular injuries than do knees primary reconstruction. Hypothesis: Previous partial meniscectomy (PM) is associated with a higher rate of chondral lesions at ACL reconstruction, whereas previous meniscal repair (MR) not compared no surgery. Study design: Cohort study (Prevalence); Level evidence, 2. Methods: Data from multicenter cohort was reviewed to determine the history prior...
Background: The occurrence of physiologic knee hyperextension (HE) in the revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) population and its effect on outcomes have yet to be reported. Hypothesis/Purpose: prevalence HE ACLR 2-year outcome were studied with hypothesis that preoperative ≥5° is a risk factor for (ACL) graft rupture. Study Design: Cohort study; Level evidence, 2. Methods: Patients undergoing identified prospectively enrolled between 2006 2011. inclusion criteria...
Background: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction failure occurs in up to 10% of cases. Technical errors are considered the most common cause graft despite absence validated studies. Limited data available regarding agreement among orthopaedic surgeons causes primary ACL and accuracy tunnel placement. Hypothesis: Experienced knee have a high level interobserver reliability about failure, anatomic characteristics, Study Design: Cohort study (diagnosis); Level evidence, 3. Methods:...
Knees undergoing revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (rACLR) have a high prevalence of articular cartilage lesions.The chondrosis at the time rACLR is associated with meniscal status and lower extremity alignment.Cross-sectional study; Level evidence, 3.Data from prospective Multicenter ACL Revision Study (MARS) cohort were reviewed to identify patients preoperative alignment films. Lower was defined by weightbearing line (WBL) as percentage tibial plateau width, while...
Background: Patient-reported outcomes (PROs) are a valid measure of results after revision anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. Revision ACL reconstruction has been documented to have worse when compared with primary Understanding positive and negative predictors PROs will allow surgeons modify potentially improve outcome for patients. Purpose/Hypothesis: The purpose was describe test the hypothesis that patient- technique-specific variables associated these outcomes. Study...
Background: It is unknown whether unstable chondral lesions observed during arthroscopic partial meniscectomy (APM) require treatment. We examined differences at 1 year with respect to knee pain and other outcomes between patients who had debridement (CL-Deb) those observation (CL-noDeb) of encountered APM. Methods: Patients were ≥30 years old undergoing APM randomized receive (CL-Deb group; n = 98) or (CL-noDeb; 92) Outerbridge grade-II, III, IV lesions. Outcomes evaluated preoperatively 8...
Articular cartilage health is an important issue following anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury and primary ACL reconstruction. Factors present at the time of reconstruction may influence subsequent progression articular damage.Larger meniscus resection reconstruction, increased patient age, body mass index (BMI) are associated with odds worsened damage revision reconstruction.Case-control study; Level evidence, 3.Subjects who had data in databases Multicenter Orthopaedics Outcomes...
Background: Revision anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction has been documented to have worse outcomes compared with primary ACL reconstruction. Hypothesis: Certain factors under the control of surgeon at time revision surgery can both negatively and positively affect outcomes. Study Design: Case-control study; Level evidence, 3.

abstract Elective hip or knee arthroplasty is considered a relatively safe orthopedic procedure. However, given the number of procedures performed, catastrophic complications, such as death, occur. Between January 1995 and March 2001, 3438 patients underwent elective at our institution. Patients with diagnoses fracture malignancy were excluded. Extensive chart reviews performed on 9 postoperative deaths. The American Society Anesthesiologists (ASA) score was significantly related to...

Why do firms exist? What is their function? managers do? the role, if any, of social motivation in market? In this paper, we address these questions with a new theory firm, which unites some major themes management, principal-agent theory, and economic sociology. We show that although market superior incentive mechanism, firm has comparative advantage respect to motivation. then efficient environments favor provision incentives, such as when subjective risk low performance easy measure. The...
