Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injuries and Reconstruction [PDF]

The Annals of The Royal College of Surgeons of England, 2006
Over the past decade, there has been an increase in interest and participation in sports. Concomitant with this, there has been an increase in sports-related injuries, particularly to the lower limbs. Of specifically ligamentous injuries to the knee, rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) has been the commonest, and has the greatest potential ...

A Review on Biomechanics of Anterior Cruciate Ligament and Materials for Reconstruction

Applied Bionics and Biomechanics, 2018
The anterior cruciate ligament is one of the six ligaments in the human knee joint that provides stability during articulations. It is relatively prone to acute and chronic injuries as compared to other ligaments.

A semitendinosus with adjustable button graft construct in patients undergoing hamstring ACL reconstruction results in improved knee flexor strength symmetry and less donor site pain and morbidity: Outcomes from the DOSTAR randomized controlled trial

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To compare donor site morbidity and patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs), knee laxity and early strength and functional outcomes, following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) using a semitendinosus (ST) tendon autograft with suspensory adjustable button tibial fixation or semitendinosus–gracilis (STG) autograft with ...

Prior procedures, graft location, preoperative physical health, postoperative strength and graft integrity are associated with 10‐year clinical outcome after matrix‐induced autologous chondrocyte implantation

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To investigate factors associated with 10‐year clinical scores after matrix‐induced autologous chondrocyte implantation (MACI). Methods This retrospective case series included 143 MACI patients with 10‐year clinical and radiological follow‐up.

Several flat tendon graft types are viable options for flat superficial medial collateral ligament reconstructions—A biomechanical analysis

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Flat superficial medial collateral ligament (sMCL) reconstruction helps restore knee kinematics in medial instability, but recommendations on grafts that best mimic the sMCL's biomechanical properties are missing. This study aimed to compare the biomechanical properties of flat grafts to the native sMCL, hypothesizing that (1) flat ...

Knee hyperextension is not associated with anterior knee laxity, subjective knee function or revision surgery after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction in children and adolescents

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate whether contralateral knee hyperextension (KHE) is associated with anterior knee laxity, subjective knee function or revision surgery after primary anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) in patients <18 years. Methods Patients <18 years who underwent primary ACLR at Capio Artro Clinic, Stockholm, Sweden between ...

Effect of Custom Molded Functional Brace on Balance in Patients with Anterior Cruciate Ligament Tearing [PDF]

Journal of Kerman University of Medical Sciences, 2012
Background & Aims: Knee joint is a complex structure and anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear is one of the most common injuries of it. Anterior cruciate ligament, because of its proprioceptive function, has an important role in balance control and its ...

Treatment of large chondral lesions with an autologous minced cartilage technique and synovial flap leads to superior results compared to matrix associated autologous chondrocyte transplantation technique after 24 months: A controlled clinical trial

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Treating large cartilage lesions in the knee remains a challenge. While matrix‐associated autologous chondrocyte implantation (MACI) is the gold standard for medium to large lesions, the minced cartilage technique has shown promise in smaller defects. Enhancing this technique with biomaterials has been suggested for larger lesions, but
