Pediatric Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction

Ortopedia Traumatologia Rehabilitacja, 2023
The incidence of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries in children and adolescents has been growing recently. This problem is a challenge for the treating orthopedic surgeon, especially when the patient is in the prepubertal period with a high growth potential.

Revision Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction

Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery, 2017
➤ Technical errors such as nonanatomic tunnel placement are some of the most common causes of graft failure after primary anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR).➤ When considering a revision ACLR in a patient with ACL graft failure, it is crucial to perform preoperative imaging, which should include an initial ...

Pediatric Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction

Orthopedics, 2018
The rate of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) ruptures diagnosed among the pediatric and adolescent population is increasing. The rise in ACL injuries may be attributed to earlier sports specialization, year-round sports participation, increased awareness, and improved ability to diagnose the injury.

Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction of the Knee

AORN Journal, 2011
AbstractAnterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries affect more than 175,000 patients annually. Located in the center of the knee joint, the ACL is the major stabilizing ligament of the knee. If the ACL is injured, then the knee becomes unstable and can buckle when the person pivots.

Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction

Operative Techniques in Sports Medicine, 2009
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears are one of the most common serious sports injuries. This injury can result in an unstable knee, causing meniscal tears and articular cartilage degeneration. In this article, we outline our basic approach to a patient with an ACL injury, including preoperative evaluation, patient selection, operative technique, and

Allograft Reconstruction of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament

Clinics in Sports Medicine, 1991
This article reviews the scientific basis for the use of allografts in reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament of the knee. The possibility and incidence of postsurgical rejection and disease transmission with allograft usage are discussed. The operative technique of the author and the rationale for his postoperative rehabilitation protocol is

The Anterior Cruciate Ligament

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1979
Both primary repair and late substitution of anterior cruciate ligaments can be accomplished by intra-articular methods. This principle is to provide temporary struts that are initially avascular but can later undergo revascularization and metaplasia to form a new ligament. The graft does afford initial support, however.

THE BIOLOGY OF ANTERIOR CRUCIATE LIGAMENT RECONSTRUCTIONS

Orthopedics, 1993
ABSTRACT Ligaments, including the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), have a limited biological response to injury. The same healing process affects graft tissues used to reconstruct the ACL. These biological processes interact with mechanical forces to transform the grafts into tissues, which are expected to functionally replace the ACL ...
