In-out versus out-in technique for ACL reconstruction. a prospective clinical and radiological comparison [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background: Several studies have recently shown better restoration of normal knee kinematics and improvement of rotator knee stability after reconstruction with higher femoral tunnel obliquity.

A semitendinosus with adjustable button graft construct in patients undergoing hamstring ACL reconstruction results in improved knee flexor strength symmetry and less donor site pain and morbidity: Outcomes from the DOSTAR randomized controlled trial

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To compare donor site morbidity and patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs), knee laxity and early strength and functional outcomes, following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) using a semitendinosus (ST) tendon autograft with suspensory adjustable button tibial fixation or semitendinosus–gracilis (STG) autograft with ...

Changes Within Clinical Practice After a Randomized Controlled Trial of Knee Arthroscopy for Osteoarthritis

open access: yesOrthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine, 2017
Background: In 2002, Moseley et al published a randomized controlled trial (RCT) that showed no difference between knee arthroscopy and placebo for patients with osteoarthritis (OA). We wanted to assess the impact of the trial on clinical practice in the

High continuous fragility index values for randomised controlled trials investigating medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction for patellar instability: A systematic review

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To evaluate the statistical fragility of randomised controlled trials (RCTs) investigating medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction (MPFLR) of patients with patellar instability. Methods A search of PubMed, MEDLINE, and EMBASE databases for RCTs investigating surgical management of patients with patellar instability from inception

Performance of medical students on a virtual reality simulator for knee arthroscopy: an analysis of learning curves and predictors of performance

open access: yesBMC Surgery, 2016
BackgroundEthical concerns for surgical training on patients, limited working hours with fewer cases per trainee and the potential to better select talented persons for arthroscopic surgery raise the interest in simulator training for arthroscopic ...

Several flat tendon graft types are viable options for flat superficial medial collateral ligament reconstructions—A biomechanical analysis

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Flat superficial medial collateral ligament (sMCL) reconstruction helps restore knee kinematics in medial instability, but recommendations on grafts that best mimic the sMCL's biomechanical properties are missing. This study aimed to compare the biomechanical properties of flat grafts to the native sMCL, hypothesizing that (1) flat ...

Treatment of large chondral lesions with an autologous minced cartilage technique and synovial flap leads to superior results compared to matrix associated autologous chondrocyte transplantation technique after 24 months: A controlled clinical trial

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Treating large cartilage lesions in the knee remains a challenge. While matrix‐associated autologous chondrocyte implantation (MACI) is the gold standard for medium to large lesions, the minced cartilage technique has shown promise in smaller defects. Enhancing this technique with biomaterials has been suggested for larger lesions, but

Differential patterns of PMN-elastase and type III procollagen peptide in knee joint effusions due to acute and chronic sports injuries [PDF]

open access: yes, 1991
In 38 traumatic knee joint effusions the proteolytic enzyme PMN-elastase (PMN-E) and the repair marker procollagen III aminoterminal peptide (PIIINP) were determined.
