Using Platelet-Rich Plasma to Reverse the Effects of Tendinopathy and Prevent Tendon Re-rupture after Surgery in Athletes: The Search for a Standardized Protocol [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
30-50% of all lesions amateur and professional sports players will experience during activity are related to the tendon. Moreover, the incidence of tendinopathy, a precursor to tendon rupture, is much higher in both of these groups due to excessive ...

All‐inside meniscal repair using polyether ether ketone versus all‐suture anchors: No difference in failure rates at three‐follow‐up in a retrospective cohort of 2253 patients

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To compare mid‐term failure rates of next‐generation all‐inside meniscal repair using polyether ether ketone (PEEK) anchors versus all‐suture anchors in a large patient cohort. The null hypothesis was that there would be no difference in failure rates between PEEK and all‐suture anchors.

Thresholds for minimum clinically important difference, minimal important change and patient acceptable symptom state for the ACL‐RSI and the K‐SES in patients after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The aim of this study was to calculate and provide Patient Acceptable Symptom State (PASS) thresholds, Minimum Clinically Important Difference (MCID), and Minimal Important Change (MIC) values for the ACL‐Return to Sport after Injury (ACL‐RSI) scale and the Knee Self‐Efficacy Scale (K‐SES) in patients treated with ACL reconstruction ...

Medial parapatellar surgical approach leads to greater loss of postural sway complexity compared to mid‐vastus approach in women undergoing total knee arthroplasty

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is associated with acute postoperative effects that increase the risk of falls. These effects differ between the medial parapatellar (PP) and mid‐vastus (MV) surgical techniques but have not been evaluated in terms of postural sway complexity.

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

open access: yesKnee 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.
