Adding lateral retinacular release to medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction reconstruction has no effect on patellar height: A prospective randomised controlled trial

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate the effect of medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction with or without lateral retinacular release (LRR) on patellar height in patients with recurrent patellar dislocation (RPD).

Reverse coronal deformity does not adversely affect clinical outcomes or early survivorship following image‐based robotic total knee arthroplasty performed under functional alignment

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Reverse coronal deformity (RCD) is characterized by a ≥2° reversal of coronal alignment between knee extension and 90° of flexion. This study evaluated clinical outcomes, intraoperative alignment characteristics, and early revision rates in patients with RCD undergoing image‐based robotic‐assisted total knee arthroplasty (TKA) using ...

Prior anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: Comparable outcomes but reduced knee flexion after robotic functionally aligned total knee arthroplasty

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) is technically demanding and has been associated with higher complication rates. This study aimed to evaluate whether patients with prior ACLR undergoing image‐based robotic‐assisted TKA performed under functional alignment (FA) principles achieve ...
