Accuracy of MRI in Comparison With Arthroscopic Findings in the Diagnosis of Anterior Cruciate Ligament and Meniscus Tears [PDF]

open access: yesDisease and Diagnosis, 2016
Background and Objective: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is of great aid in the diagnosis of knee lesions. Nevertheless, arthroscopy has remained the reference standard for the diagnosis of internal derangements of the knee, to which alternative ...

Dual–Posteromedial Portal Technique for Complex Arthroscopy in the Posterior Knee

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, 2021
Arthroscopy in the posterior knee continues to improve as new techniques arise. Traditionally, posterior techniques included posteromedial and posterolateral portals. Although frequently used, these techniques do have some limitations. We propose the use

Orthopaedic surgery [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Over the past fifty years orthopaedic surgery made giant strides forward. It developed from a discipline that dealt primarily with the treatment of fractures, bone infections and tendon transfers and that treated degenerate joints by fusing them to one ...

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 ...

Hip arthroscopy and periacetabular osteotomy generally improve sexual function in patients, but have a risk of iatrogenic pudendal nerve injury that can temporarily worsen sexual function: A systematic review

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To summarise how orthopaedic hip sports medicine procedures affect patients' sexual function so that surgeons can better counsel their patients on this topic. Methods Three databases (MEDLINE, EMBASE and PubMed) were searched on 27 April 2024 with search terms relating to sexual activity and orthopaedic procedures.

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

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
