Posterolateral corner reconstruction using hamstrings grafts—A comparative biomechanical study of three techniques

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To compare three posterolateral corner (PLC) reconstruction techniques—the popliteofibular loop (PFLoop), the modified LaPrade (LP) and modified Arciero (AR) techniques—in restoring knee laxity in varus (VR), external tibial rotation (ER) and posterior tibial translation (PTT). Methods Nine cadaveric knees were subjected to 8Nm VR, 5Nm

Soleus subtendon elongation is reduced by individual suturing of Achilles subtendons after rupture

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
The findings supported the hypothesis that individually suturing soleus and gastrocnemius subtendons reduces soleus subtendon elongation by approximately 50% compared with the standard technique 1 week after Achilles tendon repair. Although both subtendons elongated over 6 months, soleus elongation remained significantly lower with individual suturing,
