What Is the Mid-term Failure Rate of Revision ACL Reconstruction? A Systematic ReviewWhat Is the Mid-term Failure Rate of Revision ACL Reconstruction? A Systematic Review
Background: When anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction fails, a revision procedure may be performed to improve knee function, correct instability, and allow return to activities. The results of revision ACL reconstruction have been reported to produce good but inferior patient-reported and objective outcomes compared with primary ACL reconstruction, but the degree to which this is the case varies widely among published studies and may be influenced by heterogeneity of patients, techniques, and endpoints assessed. For those reasons, a systematic review may provide important insights. Questions/purposes: In a systematic review, we asked: (1) What is the proportion of revision ACL reconstruction cumulative failures defined as rerupture or objective failure using prespecified clinical criteria at mean followup of at least 5 years? (2) What are the most common complications of revision ACL reconstruction? Methods: A systematic review was performed by searching PubMed/Medline, EMBASE, and ...
Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction via Quadriceps Autograft and Lateral Extra-Articular Tenodesis in Skeletally Immature...Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction via Quadriceps Autograft and Lateral Extra-Articular Tenodesis in Skeletally Immature...
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are common in young athletes. The management of ACL injuries has evolved considerably in the past 50 years. Historically, ACL tears were managed via isolated lateral extra-articular tenodesis (LET) to control anterior laxity. The use of isolated extra-articular reconstruction decreased after single-bundle intra-articular ACL reconstruction techniques were introduced. Double-bundle ACL reconstruction was developed to further control rotational laxity. Recently, single-bundle ACL reconstruction in combination with LET has emerged as a method to decrease rotatory laxity in high-risk athletes. Although LET usually is recommended during revision ACL surgery, LET also is considered an adjunct to primary ACL reconstruction in patients with certain risk factors, such as age younger than 18 years, a grade II pivot shift, underlying hyperlaxity, or intention to return to high-demand cutting/pivoting sports activity. This video discusses the case presentation of a 13-year
Senter for idrettsskadeforskning - Double-bundle vs single-bundle ACL reconstruction - new RCTSenter for idrettsskadeforskning - Double-bundle vs single-bundle ACL reconstruction - new RCT
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction is one of the most common orthopaedic procedures performed among young, active and healthy individuals.. The double-bundle ACL reconstruction technique was developed to improve both the anatomical and biomechanical properties of the knee after the reconstruction, due to the restoration of both of the bundles of the ACL: the anteromedial (AM) and the posterolateral (PL) bundle.. Their different insertion sites and tension patterns during knee motion, were supposed to resemble the native ACL more closely than the traditional single-bundle reconstruction. Although many laboratory studies support these findings, clinical studies are less convincing. Large, high-quality studies, with focus on the patient´s subjective outcome has been requested in order to decide if double-bundle reconstruction technique should continue to be an option for the ACL injured patients. This study was designed to compare the double-bundle to the single-bundle ACL ...

Due to it being tangential to the distal femoral axis, the anteromedial portal presents significant risk of causing iatrogenic damage, and of producing tunnels that are too short for optimal osseointegration. Flexible reamers were developed to eliminate the need for knee hyperflexion and offer better-controlled orientation of the femoral tunnel. We aimed to compare the anteversion and length of femoral tunnels drilled using flexible reamers to those drilled using rigid reamers. Between May 2012 and December 2013, all patients receiving ACL reconstruction performed by one surgeon were operated on using either a rigid or a flexible reamer from the same supplier (Versi-Tomic® system, Stryker, Kalamazoo, Michigan). The height of each patient was recorded, and the length and anteversion of the femoral tunnels were measured intra-operatively and on true lateral radiographs, respectively. Thirty-seven patients underwent operations using the rigid instrumentation, and 43 using the flexible instrumentation.

In November 2013 the Orthopaedic Sports Medicine Community was awakened by a media hype around a new ligament in the knee joint, found in Belgium by Steven Claes, which was previously unknown to surgeons performing arthroscopic ACL reconstruction . North American surgeons buffered the media, showing this new named ALL ligament was an anatomic structure that was found on anatomic sections. Old studies from a French surgeon (1879), Segond, showed that the avulsion fracture, named Segond fracture, was attached to a strong capsulair structure. This structure seems to be the same as the new named ALL ligament. New ligaments could mean new indications and new surgical techniques, which was already seen with the hype of the double bundle ACL reconstruction. Many researches used CAOS to scientifically show the advantages and limitations of DB techniques. In 2009, A Pearle (New York, USA) produced 10 papers using CAOS technology in relation to the new interest in biomechanics and reconstruction ...

Experimental and numerical analysis of screw fixation in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction | SciweaversExperimental and numerical analysis of screw fixation in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction | Sciweavers
Experimental and numerical analysis of screw fixation in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction - -This paper reports the results of an experimental and finite element analysis of tibial screw fixation in hamstring ACL reconstruction. The mechanical properties of the bone and tendon graft are obtained from experiments using porcine/calf bones and tendon. The results of the numerical study are compared with those from mechanical testing. Analysis shows that the model may be used to establish the optimum placement of the tunnel in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction by predicting mechanical parameters such as stress, strain and displacement at regions in the tunnel wall.

OBJECTIVE To determine the effect of graft choice (allograft, bone-patellar tendon-bone autograft, or hamstring autograft) on deep tissue infections following anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstructions. DESIGN Retrospective cohort study. SETTING AND POPULATION Patients from 6 US health plans who underwent ACL reconstruction from January 1, 2000, through December 31, 2008. METHODS We identified ACL reconstructions and potential postoperative infections using claims data. A hierarchical stratified sampling strategy was used to identify patients for medical record review to confirm ACL reconstructions and to determine allograft vs autograft tissue implanted, clinical characteristics, and infection status. We estimated infection rates overall and by graft type. We used logistic regression to assess the association between infections and patients demographic characteristics, comorbidities, and choice of graft. RESULTS On review of 1,452 medical records, we found 55 deep wound infections. With ...
SINGLE-TUNNEL DOUBLE BUNDLE ANTERIOR CRUCIATE LIGAMENT RECONSTRUCTION - Patent applicationSINGLE-TUNNEL DOUBLE BUNDLE ANTERIOR CRUCIATE LIGAMENT RECONSTRUCTION - Patent application
0005]Single tunnel single bundle anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (STSBACLR) has long been established as a method of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. A variety of graft choices are available to surgeons during ACL reconstruction. These choices include autogenous patellar or quadriceps tendon with bone blocks, or hamstring tendons. In addition, changed here tendon allografts (from donors) may be used. The main portion of the ACL which needs to be reconstructed is the anterolateral bundles. Arthroscopic assisted or open ACL reconstructions involve removing the remaining native ACL and drilling a tunnel at the anatomic attachment site of the anterolateral or posterior medial bundle at the anterolateral wall of the intercondylar notch. This tunnel is drilled in line with the roof of the notch and about 1-3 mm from the posterior articular surface of the lateral femoral condyle. The tibial attachment site is then prepared by identifying the normal attachment site of the ACL ...

N2 - Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) ruptures are some of the most common knee injuries seen by sports medicine physicians. However, given the complex anatomy and function of the ACL, reconstruction of this ligament is anything but straightforward. The last decade has seen much advancement in ACL reconstruction, with an improved knowledge of the biology and biomechanics of graft incorporation, new choices for graft material and graft fixation devices, and more accelerated rehabilitation protocols. Although there are numerous studies in the literature on ACL reconstruction, there is yet to be a consensus among surgeons on the "best" graft choice and ...

One-incision versus two-incision surgical techniques for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction in adults | CochraneOne-incision versus two-incision surgical techniques for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction in adults | Cochrane
Background. The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is a band of tough tissue inside the knee that helps stabilise the knee during movement. Rupture of the ACL is a common injury during some sporting activities, such as football and skiing. Anterior cruciate ligament injuries are often treated surgically. This usually involves keyhole (arthroscopic) ACL reconstruction, where the torn ACL is replaced by a piece of tendon (graft). The graft is usually extracted from another place near the patients affected knee. In ACL reconstruction, bone tunnels are drilled at the knee into the tibia (shin bone) and the femur (thigh bone) to place the ACL graft in almost the same position as the torn ACL.. This review compared two ACL reconstruction techniques: one-incision versus two-incision. The more common two-incision technique involves drilling the femoral (from the thigh bone) tunnel from outside to inside the knee joint with an incision made in the outward aspect of the thigh to reach the bone. In the ...

Background: Anterior cruciate ligament reconstructions (ACLRs) are frequently performed on young, active patients and can result in persistent knee symptoms and activity limitations that may affect health-related quality of life (HRQoL). To date, there has been no systematic review of HRQoL outcomes after ACLR. Purpose: The objectives of this study were to report HRQoL ≥5 years after ACLR, compare HRQoL outcomes with available population norms, and describe factors that may affect HRQoL in this population. Study Design: Systematic review. Methods: All studies reporting HRQoL ≥5 years after ACLR with hamstring or patellar tendon autografts were eligible for review. Common HRQoL outcomes were pooled using a random-effects meta-analysis and compared with published population norms. The Spearman rank correlation coefficient (r) was used to identify variables associated with HRQoL outcomes. Where insufficient data were available, outcomes were reported descriptively. Results: Fourteen studies ...
Graft healing in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction | BMC Sports Science, Medicine and Rehabilitation | Full TextGraft healing in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction | BMC Sports Science, Medicine and Rehabilitation | Full Text
Successful anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with a tendon graft necessitates solid healing of the tendon graft in the bone tunnel. Improvement of graft healing to bone is crucial for facilitating an early and aggressive rehabilitation and ensuring rapid return to pre-injury levels activity. Tendon graft healing in a bone tunnel requires bone ingrowth into the tendon. Indirect Sharpey fiber formation and direct fibrocartilage fixation confer different anchorage strength and interface properties at the tendon-bone interface. For enhancing tendon graft-to-bone healing, we introduce a strategy that includes the use of periosteum, hydrogel supplemented with periosteal progenitor cells and bone morphogenetic protein-2, and a periosteal progenitor cell sheet. Future studies include the use of cytokines, gene therapy, stem cells, platelet-rich plasma, and mechanical stress for tendon-to-bone healing. These strategies are currently under investigation, and will be applied in the clinical setting in the

Background:The main goal of physiotherapy for patients with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACL-R) is to improve postural control and retain knee function. Therefore, clinicians need to use evaluative tools that assess postural changes during physiotherapy. To maximize the clinical utility of the results of these tools, the extracted measures should have appropriate psychometric properties of reliability, validity and responsiveness. No study has yet addressed responsiveness of postural measures in these patients. This study was designed to investigate the responsiveness and determine the minimal clinically important changes (MCIC) of static and dynamic postural measures in patients with (ACL-R) following physiotherapy. Methods: Static and dynamic postural measures were evaluated at first occasion and again after four weeks physiotherapy. The static measures consisted of center of pressure (COP) parameters while dynamic measures included the stability indices. Correlation analysis and ROC

We aimed to evaluate clinical and radiological results after simultaneous open-wedge high tibial osteotomy (HTO) and anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction in patients with ACL deficiency combined with medial uni-compartmental osteoarthritis (OA) and varus deformity. This retrospective study was performed using data collected from 2005 to 2011 on a total of 24 patients who were diagnosed with ACL injury and medial unicompartmental OA with varus deformity, and who subsequently underwent simultaneous open-wedge HTO and arthroscopic ACL reconstruction. The mean follow-up duration was 5.2 years. For clinical outcomes, we evaluated Lysholm score, Tegner activity score, range of motion, Lachmann test, and pivot-shift test, and for radiological outcomes, we evaluated the degree of varus deformity, progression of medial OA, tibial posterior slope, anterior instability, and postoperative complication. There were no limitations in range of motion found in any cases. Three patients showed progressive

Ideal conditions for healing are mostly non-existent in one of the most common sports-related injury, the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear.[1] Furthermore, there are still controversies in regards to the optimal management of a torn ACL and the optimal time for return to sports following ACL reconstruction.. At a mean of six months after ACL reconstruction, objective functional recovery of the knee was generally unsatisfactory and this seemed to be a risk factor for recurrent tears.[2] A systematic review and meta-analysis demonstrates that younger age and return to high level of activity are evident factors leading to recurrent ACL tears.[3] These combined data indicate that nearly one in four young athletic patients who sustain an ACL injury and return to high-risk sports will develop another ACL injury.[3]. The ACL reconstruction does not necessarily enable return to preinjury sports participation. By returning to pivoting sports after ACL reconstruction, athletes are also facing high ...

During 2000-2015, the incidence of ACL reconstruction surgery increased in Australia in all age groups; the overall incidence was greatest among 15-24-year-olds. Consistent with other recent reports,1,3,17 the rate of growth in incidence was greatest among 5-14-year-old children.. Our calculated primary ACL reconstruction incidence of 77.4 per 100 000 population is the highest population-adjusted rate in the world; lower rates in comparable Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) nations include those for the United States (52), New Zealand (37), Denmark (38), Norway (34), and Sweden (32 per 100 000 population).7. We identified age and sex differences in the incidence of ACL reconstruction surgery, with the peak incidence in males being for a slightly older age group and 73% higher than the peak incidence in females. This is consistent with studies that have reported higher rates of ACL reconstruction in males,2,18,19 despite females being two to ten times more likely to ...

PURPOSE:External loading of osteoarthritic and healthy knees correlates with current and future osteochondral tissue state. These relationships have not been examined following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. We hypothesised greater magnitude tibiofemoral contact forces were related to increased prevalence of osteochondral pathologies, and these relationships were exacerbated by concomitant meniscal injury. METHODS:This was a cross-sectional study of 100 individuals (29.7 ± 6.5 years, 78.1 ± 14.4 kg) examined 2-3 years following hamstring tendon anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. Thirty-eight participants had concurrent meniscal pathology (30.6 ± 6.6 years, 83.3 ± 14.3 kg), which included treated and untreated meniscal injury, and 62 participants (29.8 ± 6.4 years, 74.9 ± 13.3 kg) were free of meniscal pathology. Magnetic resonance imaging of reconstructed knees was used to assess prevalence of tibiofemoral osteochondral pathologies (i.e., cartilage defects and bone ...

Effect of physiotherapy attendance on outcome after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: a pilot studyEffect of physiotherapy attendance on outcome after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: a pilot study
BACKGROUND:In many centres patients are routinely referred for physiotherapy after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. However, to date the role and amount of supervised physiotherapy required has not been clearly established. OBJECTIVE:To establish whether there was any difference in outcome between a group of patients who attended physiotherapy regularly after ACL reconstruction and a group who attended only infrequently. METHODS:Ten patients who had attended physiotherapy infrequently (mean 1.9 visits) during the first six months after ACL reconstructive surgery were matched for age, sex, graft type, and activity level and occupation before injury with 10 patients who had attended physiotherapy regularly (mean 26.5 visits). Outcome was assessed at 12 months using the Cincinnati knee rating system and the IKDC form. RESULTS:Compared with the regular physiotherapy group, patients in the minimal physiotherapy group had fewer symptoms (mean Cincinnati symptom score 46.2 v 43.4, p = ...
Postoperative anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction outcomes: Phas by David M. Collins"Postoperative anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction outcomes: Phas" by David M. Collins
Background: The goal of this study is to provide outcomes data for ACL reconstruction surgeries to a single physician/surgeon and the patient. Outcomes data collected and analyzed for a single physician will provide the surgeon with information that can be given to patients seeking ACL reconstruction surgery. This information will help the patient know what to expect in terms of recovery, infection rate, and failure rate. It will also aid the surgeon in identifying areas of strength and weakness in his practice. To accomplish this goal a database was created using Filemaker Pro 7 software that allows for data entry at the point of care and basic data analysis. The analyzed data will be given to ACL reconstruction surgery candidates likely in the form of a handout or pamphlet during the informed consent process. Hypothesis: Collection of subjective and objective data should allow for a better understanding of the post-operative outcomes of a single surgeon for ACL reconstruction surgery and improve the

Alarming underutilisation of rehabilitation after ACL reconstruction (ACLR) was highlighted in a recent study.1 These Australian trends are not unique, but support the emerging realisation that athletes may be overtreated with ACLR surgery, but undertreated when it comes to rehabilitation. We use the term undertreated to describe insufficient rehabilitation-either because athletes are discharged too soon or because the rehabilitation content is inadequate.. Among non-elite athletes with ACLR, only 5% received rehabilitation1 that followed evidence-based guidelines2: ≥6 months rehabilitation, including agility and landing exercises, and a structured return to sport (RTS). Most athletes were undertreated: 45% (50 of 111) never saw a clinician after the third postoperative month and 70% (78 of 111) never did agility or landing exercises.1 When clinical practice does not follow evidence-based guidelines, we are not offering the best to our athletes. ...

|p|The purpose of this study was to investigate the responses elicited during aquatic and land rehabilitation to establish the comparison among parameters such as, range of motion (ROM), muscle strength, circumference of muscle mass and swelling. Thirteen individuals with an anterior reconstruction ligament with a concomitant meniscal injury participated in the study who established 2 groups: the land rehabilitation (LR), patients who were followed by a land program and the water rehabilitation (WR) whose patients had an aquatic program. Clinical evaluations were applied in the 0, 3, 6 and 9 weeks measuring the parameters. The patients from the WR reached the best results for all parameters which were evaluated. We concluded the aquatic rehabilitation allowed earlier function recuperation than the land program.|/p|

Dr. Robert F. LaPrade operated on my right knee in May of 2010. I was hit by a car on my bicycle near Horsetooth Reservoir in CO. I was life flighted to MCR in Loveland, CO. My orthopedic injuries were severe, but totally missesd by the orthopedic team at Poudre. I could not bear weight on my right side though I tried repeatedly, but finally I went and got an MRI and one of the orthopedic surgeons that I worked with was shocked when he saw the MRI result. My right knee was totally destroyed; ACL, MCL, PCL all severely torn; the patella was the only thing intact in my right knee. Dr. La Prade had just moved to Vail and I was his 2nd patient @ The Steadman Clinic. I was told by one of the orthopedic surgeons that I worked with that I would never run again and would be lucky if I could ever hike again. This was devastating news after being a top triathlete (3rd in the world in my age group in 1989 & 1st nationally in my age group) and a big marathon runner. All I can say is Dr. La Prade did an ...

I was in Japan skiing with my family in January 2020. It was the second day of the trip when I got injured and ruptured my ACL.. Ive skied every year of my life, basically, so Im a very confident skier. Im not a beginner at all. Ive skied a lot. But I fell and noticed there was a really loud noise in my knee. I knew something was wrong then. I stood up and my whole knee caved in. At that point, I knew I couldnt ski down the mountain myself.. We called mountain rescue and they took me down in a Ski-Doo, which is a type of skimobile. From there, they took me straight to the clinic. Luckily, the resort we were at is quite popular among Australians, so I was able to find a doctor that spoke English. The language barrier wasnt really an issue.. My knee didnt really hurt at that point. It wasnt a painful injury, though my body was in a lot of shock. At the clinic, they put me in a knee brace and sent me home with some painkillers. We then organised an MRI scan.. Originally, my plan had been to ...

OBJECTIVE: The anterolateral ligament (ALL) may limit tibial internal rotation and pivot-shift following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. Previous studies, using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) to identify this structure, have been inconsistent. We aimed to further characterize the anatomy of this ligament with reference to previous work. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Institutional Review Board approval was gained and a retrospective study of 154 consecutive 1.5-T MRI studies was performed by a consultant musculoskeletal radiologist. Cases with a lateral compartment or cruciate injury and patients under 16 years were excluded. A total of 100 MRIs (98 patients; 63 males: 35 females; mean age, 45.3 years, range, 16-85 years) were included in the study. RESULTS: The ALL was visualized partially in 94 (94.0 %) of the cases and fully with distinct femoral and tibial fibers in 57 (57.0 %) of the cases. Although the femoral origin was discreet in only 57 (57.0 %) of cases, the tibial insertion ...

Kinesiophobia - WikipediaKinesiophobia - Wikipedia
Kinesiophobia is a term used in the context of rehabilitation medicine and physical therapy to describe peoples fear of pain due to movement, a factor that hinders rehabilitation and actually prolongs disability and pain. This fear of movement can be a factor in increased time to return to participation in pre-injury activities. It has been shown that higher levels of kinesiophobia are linked to a lack of re-entry into pre-injury activities. Vincent HK, et al.

Anterior cruciate ligament graft tensioning. Is the maximal sustained one-handed pull technique reproducible?Anterior cruciate ligament graft tensioning. Is the maximal sustained one-handed pull technique reproducible?
Background Tensioning of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction grafts affects the clinical outcome of the procedure. As yet, no consensus has been reached regarding the optimum initial tension in an ACL graft. Most surgeons rely on the maximal sustained one-handed pull technique for graft tension. We aim to determine if this technique is reproducible from patient to patient. Findings We created a device to simulate ACL reconstruction surgery using Ilizarov components and porcine flexor tendons. Six experienced ACL reconstruction surgeons volunteered to tension porcine grafts using the device to see if they could produce a consistent tension. None of the surgeons involved were able to accurately reproduce graft tension over a series of repeat trials. Conclusions We conclude that the maximal sustained one-handed pull technique of ACL graft tensioning is not reproducible from trial to trial. We also conclude that the initial tension placed on an ACL graft varies from surgeon to surgeon ...

Graft1
Primary ACL Reconstruction3
  • Although LET usually is recommended during revision ACL surgery, LET also is considered an adjunct to primary ACL reconstruction in patients with certain risk factors, such as age younger than 18 years, a grade II pivot shift, underlying hyperlaxity, or intention to return to high-demand cutting/pivoting sports activity. (aaos.org)
  • Additional research is required on the use of LET in patients undergoing primary ACL reconstruction. (aaos.org)
  • The results of revision ACL reconstruction have been reported to produce good but inferior patient-reported and objective outcomes compared with primary ACL reconstruction, but the degree to which this is the case varies widely among published studies and may be influenced by heterogeneity of patients, techniques, and endpoints assessed.

Tendons4
  • If a person's own tendons do not provide the best replacement for the injured ligament, the doctor may recommend using a tendon from a donor, which have been carefully screened and tested for diseases. (cooperhealth.org)
  • Despite these reports, complications have been noted with all three types of tendons, the most frequent being anterior knee pain. (thesportjournal.org)
  • PURPOSE: To determine if recellularization of decellularized tendons combined with mechanical stimulation in a bioreactor could replicate the mechanical properties of the native ACL and be successfully used for ACL reconstruction in vivo. (growkudos.com)
  • It is also referred to as a ball and socket joint and is surrounded by muscles, ligaments, and tendons. (brettlevinemd.com)

Clinical6
  • Randomised and quasi-randomised controlled clinical trials evaluating one-incision versus two-incision techniques for arthroscopically assisted ACL reconstruction in adults. (cochrane.org)
  • Objective To describe the criteria used to guide clinical decision-making regarding when a patient is ready to return to running (RTR) after ACL reconstruction. (bmj.com)
  • Conclusions Fewer than one in five studies reported clinical, strength or performance-based criteria for RTR even though best evidence recommends performance-based criteria combined with time-based criteria to commence running activities following ACL reconstruction. (bmj.com)
  • To compare the clinical, analytical and graft maturation effects of two different platelet-rich plasma (PRP) preparations applied during anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. (cun.es)
  • with special emphasis on the clinical, radiographic, histological and ultrastructural results Mattias Lid?n Department of Orthopaedics, Institute of Clinical Sciences at Sahlgrenska Academy, University of Gothenburg, G?teborg, Sweden The aim of this study was to evaluate the long-term outcome after primary ACL reconstruction surgery using either BPTB or HT autografts and, in addition, ACL revision surgery using re-harvested patellar tendon autografts. (openthesis.org)
  • Clinical and experimental examinations have proven that a damaged frontal cruciate knee ligament will not heal by itself. (joint-surgeon.com)

Revision ACL reconstruction5
  • In this study cohort, only failed-ACL reconstruction patients undergoing revision ACL reconstruction were significantly less likely to return to their main sport. (medworm.com)
  • Previous partial meniscectomy (PM) is associated with a higher rate of chondral lesions at revision ACL reconstruction, whereas previous meniscal repair (MR) is not associated with a higher rate of chondral lesions at revision ACL reconstruction, compared with knees undergoing revision ACL with no previous meniscal surgery. (nih.gov)
  • Data from a multicenter cohort was reviewed to determine the history of prior meniscal surgery (PM/MR) and the presence of grade II/III/IV chondral lesions at revision ACL reconstruction. (nih.gov)
  • The status of articular cartilage at the time of revision ACL reconstruction relates to previous meniscal surgery independent of the effect of patient age. (nih.gov)
  • The proper execution of revision ACL reconstruction requires precise preoperative planning to assess the cause of initial failure and avoid repeating the same mistakes with revision reconstruction. (jsoaonline.com)
