Long‐Term Failure Rate of Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Using All‐Inside 4‐Stranded Semitendinosus Autograft Is 20.5%

Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To evaluate outcomes (graft failure, Patient‐Reported Outcome Measures, and knee stability) after primary isolated anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction using the all‐inside technique with 4‐stranded semitendinosus autograft fixed between 2 adjustable‐loop cortical suspension devices, with a minimum follow‐up of 10 years.

Editorial Commentary: Contact Is Not Containment: In High‐Grade Trochlear Dysplasia, the Patellotrochlear Index Quantifies Cartilage Overlap in the Absence of Osseous Constraint

Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Patella alta remains among the most critical anatomical risk factors for recurrent patellofemoral instability and failure of patellar stabilization surgery. The Caton‐Deschamps index references the patella to the tibia by measuring the position of the patella relative to the anterosuperior margin of the tibial plateau.
