Chronic Patellar Tendon Reconstruction Using Ipsilateral Peroneus Longus Autograft

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Chronic patellar tendon rupture is a rare and challenging injury that compromises knee extension and overall function. Conventional repair often requires augmentation or reconstruction using autografts, allografts, or synthetic materials, with most techniques involving transpatellar tunnels, which increase the risk of iatrogenic fracture.

3D Printed TCP-Based Scaffold Incorporating VEGF-Loaded PLGA Microspheres for Craniofacial Tissue Engineering [PDF]

, 2017
Objective Vascularization is a critical process during bone regeneration/repair and the lack of tissue vascularization is recognized as a major challenge in applying bone tissue engineeringmethods for cranial and maxillofacial surgeries.

Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction Using Double Limbed Rectus Femoris Autograft

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction is routinely performed when conservative treatment fails and patients present with recurrent patellar dislocations. Most described techniques require fixation or some type of bony procedure on the patella.

Arthroscopic‐Assisted Posterolateral Corner Reconstruction With Popliteus Tendon Repair

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Posterolateral corner reconstruction is traditionally performed via an open approach but remains technically challenging due to limited accessibility and suboptimal intraoperative visualization. Arthroscopy offers improved visualization of the posterior compartment of the knee.

Use of cultured human epithelium for coverage : a defect of radial forearm free flap donor site [PDF]

, 2009
The radial forearm free flap has been popular in many areas of reconstructive surgery. Despite the many attributes of this flap in maxillofacial reconstruction, one of the disadvantages has been the morbidity of the donor site.

Arthroscopic Anterior and Posterior Glenohumeral Capsular Augmentation With Gracilis Allograft

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Multidirectional instability in patients with connective tissue disorders such as Ehlers‐Danlos syndrome (EDS) is difficult to treat due to poor tissue quality and frequent failure of standard repairs. We describe an arthroscopic technique using gracilis tendon allografts to perform an anterior and posterior capsular augmentation in the ...

Human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells promote peripheral nerve repair via paracrine mechanisms

Neural Regeneration Research, 2015
Human umbilical cord-derived mesenchymal stem cells (hUCMSCs) represent a promising young-state stem cell source for cell-based therapy. hUCMSC transplantation into the transected sciatic nerve promotes axonal regeneration and functional recovery.

Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Using the Tape‐Active Reconstruction System With Semitendinosus Graft: A Primary Load‐Bearing Construct

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction is a widely performed orthopaedic procedure; however, early graft elongation and loss of tension remain significant biomechanical challenges, particularly with the use of soft tissue autografts. In this technical note, the tape‐active reconstruction system is described as an augmentation technique in ...
