Delayed reconstruction is associated with higher rates of medial meniscus and chondral injury following ACL injury: A New Zealand ACL Registry Study

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Early reconstruction for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture may be controversial, with some clinicians opting for a trial of non‐operative management first. The impact of delayed surgery on outcomes is unclear, but it may be associated with an increase in secondary intra‐articular pathology involving the menisci and cartilage ...

The effect of graft strength on knee laxity and graft in-situ forces after posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.

PLoS ONE, 2015
Surgical reconstruction is generally recommended for posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) injuries; however, the use of grafts is still a controversial problem.

Generalised joint hypermobility and excess knee hyperextension are associated with an increased risk for second ACL injury, but not primary ACL injury, in female football players: A 5‐year follow‐up

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study aimed to investigate the association between generalised joint hypermobility, knee hyperextension, knee laxity, and static standing alignment with the risk of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury in a cohort of female football players with an ACL‐reconstructed (ACLR) knee and in knee‐healthy controls.

Longitudinal correlation between X‐ray and MRI findings in medial compartment knee osteoarthritis: Insights into early cartilage loss and structural changes

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose Knee osteoarthritis (OA) is a common joint disorder assessed using radiographic (X‐ray) and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). While X‐rays are accessible, MRI provides detailed insights into meniscus and cartilage. Few studies have evaluated the correlation between X‐ray and MRI findings in knee OA longitudinally.

Prospective randomised controlled trial comparing PLLA and PLDLA/HA/β‐TCP interference screws in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: CT scans, MRI and clinical outcomes

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Modifying interference screw composition may ensure better osteoconductive properties in order to reduce tunnel enlargement after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. The primary and secondary purposes were to evaluate tunnel and screw volume changes in poly‐L‐lactide acid (PLLA) and poly‐D‐lactic acid + hydroxyapatite + β ...

Lateral meniscus injuries have more impact on pivot shift than anterolateral complex injuries in anterior cruciate ligament‐injured knees

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The purpose of this prospective study was to investigate the effect of Kaplan fibres (KF), anterolateral ligament (ALL) and lateral meniscus (LM) injuries on preoperative anterolateral rotational instability (ALRI) in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)‐injured knees.

Experimental joint immobilization in guinea pigs. Effects on the knee joint [PDF]

In young and adult guinea pigs, the aftermath experimentally induced by the immobilization of the knee joint in hyperextended forced position was studied. Joint immobilization which varied from one to nine weeks was attained by plaster.

Incidence and Radiological Predictors of Concomitant Meniscal and Cruciate Ligament Injuries in Operative Tibial Plateau Fractures: A Prospective Diagnostic Study

Scientific Reports, 2018
The aim of this prospective study was to determine the incidence of meniscal and cruciate ligament injuries in operative tibial plateau fractures detected using knee arthroscopy, and to identify the radiological predictors observed on CT images.

Preoperative knee laxity is not associated with subjective knee function or revision surgery after primary anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: An analysis of 5425 patients

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To determine whether preoperative knee laxity, as measured by the KT‐1000 arthrometer, was associated with subjective knee function preoperatively and at 1, 2 and 5 years, or with revision anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction (ACLR) within 5 years of the primary surgery.
