The phenomenon of “Ligamentization”: Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with autogenous patellar tendon

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, 1986
AbstractReconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) with patellar tendon (PT) is a common procedure for the symptomatic ACL‐deficient knee. Questions regarding graft incorporation, viability, and nutrition of the transplanted tissue are of concern.

Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Alters the Patellar Alignment [PDF]

Arthroscopy: The Journal of Arthroscopic & Related Surgery, 1999
Although there are many articles dealing with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction, there are none dealing with the possibility of changes of the patellofemoral alignment after these procedures. Forty-six patients were evaluated preoperatively and 1 year postoperatively, after undergoing intra-articular ACL reconstruction, for changes of the

Arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with patellar tendon

Arthroscopy: The Journal of Arthroscopic & Related Surgery, 1992
Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using a bone-patella tendon-bone free autologous graft was performed with an arthroscopic technique in 73 patients with chronic insufficiency. Sixty-nine (94.5%) were available for personal follow-up 3-5 years after the operation.

Variability in the Patellar Attachment of the Medial Patellofemoral Ligament

Arthroscopy: The Journal of Arthroscopic & Related Surgery, 2016
To describe and quantify the variability of the attachments of the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL).Thirty-three cadaveric knees were dissected, and the MPFL was identified from the articular side after anterior reflection of the extensor mechanism and removal of the synovium. The width of the MPFL at its femoral origin and anterior attachment was

The morphometry of patella and patellar ligament during the fetal period

Clinical Anatomy, 2010
AbstractThis study aims to determine the development and morphology of the patella and patellar tendon and to obtain morphometric data about these structures during the fetal period. One hundred five human fetuses (55 males and 50 females) aged 9–40 weeks were used in this study. Fetuses were divided into four groups between gestational weeks; Group I (

Tibial tubercle fracture with avulsion of patellar ligament

Formosan Journal of Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2013
Abstract Combined fractures of the tibial tubercle and the patellar ligament are rare. Here we report the case of an 18-year-old boy who fell to the ground while playing basketball and suddenly felt a pop in his left knee; thereafter he was unable to stand.

Bone‐ligament interaction in patellar tendon reconstruction of the ACL

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, 1993
AbstractThe bone‐ligament junction is one of the most complex biological tissues. Its key function is distribution of mechanical loads applied to the ligament in such a way as to diminish the concentration of stresses or shearing at the interface. This paper reports an experimental assessment of the extent to which a nearly normal junction is formed ...

Medial patellotibial ligament (MPTL) reconstruction for patellar instability

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, 2013
AbstractPurposeTo evaluate mid‐term clinical and radiographic outcomes after an original medial patellotibial ligament reconstruction in patients with patellar dislocation.MethodsTwenty‐nine knees (27 patients, 8 males and 19 females) treated for patellar dislocation with medialization of the patellar tendon medial third combined with medial and ...

Patellar ligament reconstruction using allograft patellar ligament: a case report.

American journal of orthopedics (Belle Mead, N.J.), 1999
This report describes a method of patellar ligament reconstruction. Our patient sustained a rupture of the patellar ligament and had reconstruction with allograft patellar ligament after failed primary repair. At the 2-year follow-up, his range of motion was 0 degrees to 110 degrees and he was able to return to unrestricted standing work.
