[Reconstruction of knee medial collateral ligaments].

Zhong nan da xue xue bao. Yi xue ban = Journal of Central South University. Medical sciences, 2011
To explore surgical reconstruction therapy and clinical effect of serious medial collateral ligament ruptures of the knee.Thirty-three patients with medial collateral ligament rupture were treated by operative repair and reconstruction. The degree of injury in all patients was Grade III.

Repair of Medial Collateral Ligament Injury During Total Knee Arthoplasty

Orthopedics, 2012
Intraoperative midsubstance lacerations of the medial collateral ligament (MCL) must be addressed during surgery, and failure to obtain coronal plane stability could affect patient outcomes and satisfaction. This article reports our results of a series of patients who sustained an intraoperative MCL injury during a primary total knee arthroplasty and ...

Medial Collateral Ligament Injuries of the Knee

2015
Although most medial collateral ligament (MCL) injuries do not require repair or reconstruction, there are some that do. These include some multiple ligament injuries, entrapment of the ligament in the joint, and some distal injuries. If the ligament is robust, it can be repaired primarily; however, if the ligament is significantly damaged, or in a ...

Stability After Medial Collateral Ligament Release in Total Knee Arthroplasty

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 2001
Six knees from cadavers were tested for change in stability after release of the medial collateral ligament with posterior cruciate-retaining and substituting total knee replacements. Load deformation curves of the joint were recorded in full extension and 30 degrees, 60 degrees, and 90 degrees flexion under a 10 N-m varus and valgus torque, 1.5 N-m ...

Outcomes of Medial Collateral Ligament Injuries during Total Knee Arthroplasty

Journal of Knee Surgery, 2014
Intraoperative medial collateral ligament (MCL) disruption during total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is often managed with either primary repair or use of a constrained implant. A total of 23 patients with an MCL injury during TKA between 2003 and 2009 were compared with 92 matched controls.

Healing of the medial collateral ligament in unstable rat knees

The American Journal of Sports Medicine, 1991
Immobilization has been shown to be detrimental to healing ligaments while early motion and exercise in crease healing ligament tensile strength. In order to take advantage of early motion and exercise without causing undesirable joint laxity in unstable rat knees we devised an internal joint restabilization procedure.

How Isometric Are the Medial Patellofemoral, Superficial Medial Collateral, and Lateral Collateral Ligaments of the Knee?

The American Journal of Sports Medicine, 2009
Background Ligament isometry is a cornerstone in the description of normal knee function and thorough knowledge is mandatory for successful repair of torn ligaments. Purpose This study was undertaken to validate a novel experimental model for the study of ligament strains and to determine the length changes in the superficial medial collateral, lateral

Anatomical Reconstruction of the Medial Collateral Ligament and Posteromedial Corner of the Knee in Patients With Chronic Medial Collateral Ligament Instability

The American Journal of Sports Medicine, 2009
Background In cases of multiple ligament injury or severe medial collateral ligament (MCL) lesion, nonoperative treatment of the MCL lesion may lead to chronic valgus instability or rotatory instability. Hypothesis In a retrospective case series after isolated and combined MCL reconstructions using a novel MCL reconstruction technique that addresses ...

Injuries to the Medial Collateral Ligament and Associated Medial Structures of the Knee

The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery-American Volume, 2010
*The superficial medial collateral ligament and other medial knee stabilizers-i.e., the deep medial collateral ligament and the posterior oblique ligament-are the most commonly injured ligamentous structures of the knee. *The main structures of the medial aspect of the knee are the proximal and distal divisions of the superficial medial collateral ...

Medial collateral ligament ganglion cyst: a rare cause of medial knee pain

BMJ Case Reports
Ganglion cysts are commonly found in areas of constant mechanical stress such as the joints and tendons of the wrist or hand as well as the anterior aspect of the ankle. In the knee, parameniscal cysts are often encountered secondary to meniscal tears or articular degeneration.
