Tips for Successful Arthroscopic Single‐Bundle Posterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Injuries to the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) are relatively common knee injuries often seen in the setting of multiligamentous knee injuries. Operative treatment for PCL injuries has been described using both single and double bundles with both open and arthroscopic techniques.

Relationship between Volitional and Non-Volitional Quadriceps Muscle Endurance in Patients with Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Diagnostics
Volitional assessment of quadriceps muscle endurance is clinically relevant in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, studies that determine the construct validity of volitional tests by comparing them to non-volitional ...

Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction With Modified Remnant‐Preserving Technique: A Sleeve‐Like Membrane Suturing Method for the Tibial Remnant

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction with modified remnant‐preserving technique refers to an approach adopted during surgery to preserve the tibial remnant of ACL. In arthroscopic ACL reconstruction, the ACL remnant and excess synovium are removed to obtain a broader surgical field of view typically.

Posterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction: A Technique Utilizing Tibial Double Knotless Anchors Fixation and Femoral Suspensory Fixation

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract The posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) is a critical stabilizing structure within the knee joint. Although its injury is relatively uncommon, severe cases can lead to significant dysfunction and long‐term sequelae. PCL reconstruction is an essential treatment for PCL injuries, and among traditional techniques, trans‐tibial interference screw ...
