Oblique Femoral Tunnel Placement Can Increase Risks of Short Femoral Tunnel and Cross-Pin Protrusion in Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Sports Medicine, 2010
Background: A more horizontal femoral tunnel has been emphasized for contemporary anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. However, lowering the femoral tunnel may result in a shorter tunnel. In addition, a more horizontally placed femoral tunnel may have inadequate bone stock at the posterior portion of the tunnel, which can lead to protrusion

Tunneled femoral dialysis catheter: Practical pointers

The Journal of Vascular Access, 2021
One of the most challenging aspects of providing end-stage kidney disease care is to achieve adequate long-term access to the bloodstream to support hemodialysis (HD) therapy. Although upper extremity arteriovenous fistula remains the vascular access of choice for patients on HD, complications such as central venous stenosis, access thrombosis, or ...

Correlation Between Femoral Tunnel Length and Tunnel Position in ACL Reconstruction

Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery, 2013
The position of the femoral tunnel affects the osseous geometry available for drilling during anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. The length of the tunnel changes with changes in the tunnel position and may have implications for femoral fixation.Forty-seven patients with a single-bundle ACL reconstruction underwent computed tomography (CT)

Transtibial versus anteromedial portal of the femoral tunnel in ACL reconstruction: A cadaveric study

open access: yesKnee, 2008
The aim of this cadaveric study was to compare the transtibial versus the anteromedial portal with respect to the anatomic femoral positioning of the ACL attachment. Ten fresh frozen cadaveric knees were included in our study.

Experience with tunneled femoral hemodialysis catheters.

American Journal of Roentgenology, 1999
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the use and complication rate of tunneled femoral hemodialysis catheters placed in patients with no remaining thoracic venous access sites.Over a 3-year period, 41 tunneled femoral vein catheters (35 right, six left) were placed in 21 patients (15 women, six men; 21-89 years old; mean, 52 years).

The Graft/Femoral Tunnel Angles in Posterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction –A Comparison of 3 Techniques for Femoral Tunnel Placement

Journal of Knee Surgery, 2009
This study compared the graft/femoral tunnel angle produced with the outside-in technique with the inside-out technique at 90 degrees and 120 degrees of flexion. Three femoral tunnels were marked with guidewires and measured radiographically in 8 fresh-frozen cadaveric knees using both techniques. Results were analyzed.

Tunneled Femoral Central Venous Catheters in Children With Cancer

Pediatrics, 2001
Objective. We discuss the feasibility of long-term femoral venous access by means of a cuffed subcutaneously tunneled central venous catheter (Broviac catheter) in selected pediatric cancer and stem cell transplant patients in whom access via the veins of the upper part of the torso is difficult or contraindicated ...

Lower anatomical femoral ACL tunnel can be created in the large volume of femoral intercondylar notch

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, 2022
AbstractPurposeThe purpose of this study was to investigate the correlation between femoral intercondylar notch volume and the characteristics of femoral tunnels in anatomical single bundle anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction.MethodsFifty‐one subjects (24 male and 27 female: median age 27: range 15–49), were included in this study ...

Cuffed-tunneled Femoral Catheter for Long-term Hemodialysis

The International Journal of Artificial Organs, 2001
Background Hemodialysis access is a challenging problem in patients with exhausted dialysis access sites of their upper extremities. Femoral arterio-venous polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) graft is often necessary.

Femoral Bone Tunnel Placement

2016
Identification of the anatomical anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) footprint is essential in femoral tunnel preparation. The lateral intercondylar ridge (LIR), which is termed the anterior border of the femoral ACL footprint, can be used as a landmark during surgery. The entire ACL footprint consists of the direct insertion of the ACL located behind the
