Synthetic augmentation in ACL reconstruction may reduce re‐rupture rates and increase return‐to‐sport rates: A systematic review and meta‐analysis

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Synthetic augmentation (SA) in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) aims to enhance graft durability, but its benefits remain unclear. To evaluate whether SA in ACLR improves return‐to‐sport (RTS) rates, reduces graft failure, enhances patient‐reported outcomes (PROs) and varies in effectiveness across materials and ...

Large variability in minimal clinically important difference, substantial clinical benefit and patient acceptable symptom state values among literature investigating patellar stabilization surgery: A systematic review

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate minimal clinically important difference (MCID), substantial clinical benefit (SCB), patient acceptable symptom state (PASS) values for patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs) after patellar stabilization surgery for patellar instability.

Persistent Biomechanical Alterations After ACL Reconstruction Are Associated With Early Cartilage Matrix Changes Detected by Quantitative MR. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
BackgroundThe effectiveness of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction in preventing early osteoarthritis is debated. Restoring the original biomechanics may potentially prevent degeneration, but apparent pathomechanisms have yet to be described.

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 ...

Reconstruction of medial patellofemoral ligament for chronic patellar instability

open access: yesIndian Journal of Orthopaedics, 2012
Disruption of the capsule, medial patellar retinaculum, and/or vastus medialis obliqus has been associated with recurrent patellar instability. Biomechanical studies have shown that the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) is the main restraint against lateral patella displacement and reconstruction of the MPFL has become an accepted surgical ...

Prior procedures, graft location, preoperative physical health, postoperative strength and graft integrity are associated with 10‐year clinical outcome after matrix‐induced autologous chondrocyte implantation

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Purpose To investigate factors associated with 10‐year clinical scores after matrix‐induced autologous chondrocyte implantation (MACI). Methods This retrospective case series included 143 MACI patients with 10‐year clinical and radiological follow‐up.

The use of intra-articular aneshesia as a diagnostic tool in canine lameness [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Lameness in dogs may be difficult to localize because of mild pathologic changes or inconclusive clinical findings. Intra-articular anesthesia is proposed as a diagnostic method to localize the source of lameness.

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
