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 ...

Posterior tibial slope increases over time in patients undergoing revision ACL reconstruction: A long‐term radiographic follow‐up study

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Increased medial posterior tibial slope (PTS) is recognized as a significant risk factor for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACL‐R) failure. This study investigated radiographic changes in medial PTS over time among skeletally mature individuals undergoing revision ACL‐R and identified associated factors contributing to PTS ...

A systematic review of distal medial collateral ligament Stener‐like lesion: Good clinical and functional outcomes of surgical treatment

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study aimed to systematically evaluate the existing literature to account for the clinical and functional outcomes, complications and rate of return to sports among patients treated for distal medial collateral ligament (MCL) lesions that are isolated or associated with other knee ligament injuries. Methods A systematic review was
