Contribution of Glycosaminoglycans to the Microstructural Integrity of Fibrillar and Fiber Crimps in Tendons and Ligaments

open access: yesThe Scientific World Journal, 2010
The biomechanical roles of both tendons and ligaments are fulfilled by the extracellular matrix of these tissues. In particular, tension is mainly transmitted and resisted by protein (collagen, elastin) fibers, whereas compression is opposed by water ...

Distribution of Biglycan and Decorin in Collateral and Cruciate Ligaments and Menisci of the Rabbit Knee Joint

open access: yes, 2001
The small leucine-rich proteoglycans (PGs) biglycan and decorin, and their mRNAs, have been localized during neonatal development and aging (3 weeks to 2 years) of collateral and cruciate ligaments and of menisci of the rabbit knee joint.

Arthroscopic Diagnosis and All‐Inside Repair of Meniscofibular Ligament Tear

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Meniscofibular ligament (MFL) tears are an under‐recognized source of lateral meniscal instability, frequently encountered in association with anterior cruciate ligament injury. Failure to identify and address MFL insufficiency may result in persistent posterolateral pain and meniscal hypermobility despite successful anterior cruciate ligament

Lateral Extra‐articular Tenodesis With All‐Suture Knotless Anchor

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Although many patients have had satisfactory outcomes from arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, persistent rotational instability and graft failure still occur. Therefore, the anterolateral ligament complex has been a newer focus of research.

Human ligaments classification: a new proposal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
A high concern exists among physicians about surgically important ligaments such as cruciate and collateral ligaments of the knee, patellar ligament, tibiofibular syndesmosis, collateral ligaments of the ankle, and coracoclavicular ligament. However, the

Shear Wave Speeds Track Axial Stress in Porcine Collateral Ligaments

open access: yes, 2019
Ligament tension is an important factor that can affect the success of total knee arthroplasty (TKA) procedures. However, surgeons currently lack objective approaches for assessing tension in a particular ligament intraoperatively.

Arthroscopic Fixation of Ulnar Coronoid Process Fracture With Suture and Button Stabilization

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Ulnar coronoid fractures often cause elbow instability, whereas conservative treatment risks stiffness. Traditional open surgical approaches are frequently associated with challenges such as inadequate exposure, risks of neurovascular injury, and heterotopic ossification.

Semimembranosus Autograft Harvesting and Reconstruction for Knee Posteromedial Complex Laxity Using a “Romal Reins” Technique

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract This technical report presents semimembranosus tendon harvest and its use as an autograft in knee ligament reconstruction. The distal semimembranosus tendon is a robust and long tendon, which makes it a suitable autograft option with its distal insertions kept intact.

Open‐Wedge High Tibial Osteotomy With Complete Tibial Tubercle Osteotomy to Preserve Patellar Height

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Distalization of the tibial tubercle is a concern during open‐wedge high tibial osteotomy, particularly when a large correction is required, considering the potential for patella baja and patellofemoral problems. This Technical Note describes the use of open‐wedge high tibial osteotomy combined with complete tibial tubercle osteotomy to ...

Unrecognised Acute Rupture of the Achilles Tendon in Severe Ankle Sprain

open access: yesJournal of Orthopaedics, Trauma and Rehabilitation, 2015
Inversion ankle sprain is a common sport injury. It commonly refers to the injury of lateral collateral ligaments of the ankle. Failure to detect the concomitant injuries would lead to inappropriate treatment and suboptimal result. A case of unrecognised
