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

Knee 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 ...

Knee hyperextension is not associated with anterior knee laxity, subjective knee function or revision surgery after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction in children and adolescents

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To evaluate whether contralateral knee hyperextension (KHE) is associated with anterior knee laxity, subjective knee function or revision surgery after primary anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) in patients <18 years. Methods Patients <18 years who underwent primary ACLR at Capio Artro Clinic, Stockholm, Sweden between ...

Endoscopic Resection of Lipoma of the Patellar Tendon

Arthroscopy Techniques, 2015
Synovial lipoma of the patellar tendon is a very rare entity. It can be associated with rupture of the patellar tendon. We present a case of synovial lipoma that was successfully resected endoscopically.

Older age, higher BMI, female sex and meniscal repair are predictors of inferior patient‐reported outcomes 1 year after ACL reconstruction

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To identify predictors of inferior patient‐reported outcomes (PROs) 1 year after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) and to examine whether these predictors differ by sex. We hypothesised that older age, female sex, and meniscectomy are associated with inferior PROs.
