Controlled Tensioning Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Augmentation Using Double‐Tape Suture and Arthroscopic Lateral Soft‐Tissue Release for Patellar Instability

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Overtensioning the medial patellofemoral ligament during reconstruction is a key cause of patellofemoral overload, anterior knee pain, and limited flexion. We present a reproducible, tension‐calibrated augmentation technique using a single 4.75‐mm SwiveLock anchor preloaded with double FiberTape and sutures—eliminating graft harvest.

Long‐Term Clinical Outcomes of Combined Polydioxanone and Thin Nonabsorbable Polypropylene Thread Lifting in Korean Adults Aged 60 Years and Older [PDF]

open access: yesJ Cosmet Dermatol
ABSTRACT Background In adults aged 60 years and older with advanced facial laxity or ptosis, surgical facelift remains the gold‐standard and most predictable treatment. Thread lifting should therefore be considered a minimally invasive option for appropriately selected patients rather than an equivalent substitute for rhytidectomy. This study evaluated

A Transosseous Suture Technique for Rotator Cuff Repair in Patients With Severe Osteoporosis

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Suture anchor‐based repair is widely regarded as the standard technique for rotator cuff tears; however, in patients with severe osteoporosis, anchor pullout remains a major concern. Classical transosseous rotator cuff repair provides favorable biomechanical strength and avoids anchor‐related complications but has several inherent limitations.

Comparison of non-absorbable (polypropylene) versus delayed absorbable (polydioxanone) suture material for abdominal wound closure after laparotomy

open access: yes, 2018
Background: Type of suture material used for fascial closure in laparotomies influences the incidence of post-operative complications. Currently there is no consensus on the superiority of either absorbable or non-absorbable suture materials for ...
