Suspensory Anterior Tibial Fixation in the Anatomic Transtibial Posterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.

ABSTRACT: The transtibial technique is the most relevant among many surgical techniques for posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, and many types of fixation devices are used for tibial fixation according to the technique and the length of the graft. However, bone density in the fixation areas should be taken into consideration when choosing the fixation device to achieve rigid and stable fixation. However, density is not a substantial issue for anteromedial cortical fixation using a cortical suspension device. We describe tibial fixation with a TightRope RT (Arthrex, Naples, FL), which is a cortical suspension device, in anatomic transtibial posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.

Anatomic Double-Bundle Transtibial Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.

Project description:Double-bundle anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction (DBACLR) is a reasonable transition from single-bundle ACL reconstruction to obtain better clinical outcomes, and most authors believe that it can only be performed through a medial portal. However, in our clinical practice, we have found that anatomic DBACLR can be performed easily and exactly through transtibial tunnels just by positioning the tibial tunnels appropriately. Thus, we would like to introduce this anatomic double-bundle transtibial ACL reconstruction technique, in which the most critical step is to create a shallow tibial tunnel for the anteromedial bundle with a proximal projection to the anatomic location of the corresponding femoral tunnel. We believe this Technical Note will give an interesting view of anatomic DBACLR.

Transtibial Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction: Tips for a Successful Anatomic Reconstruction.

Project description:Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction is one of the most commonly performed orthopaedic sports procedures. Two main techniques are used for accomplishing an ACL reconstruction: transtibial and anteromedial portal techniques. The transtibial technique has been criticized for its inability to create an anatomic femoral tunnel given the intrinsic constraint of the tibial tunnel during drilling. However, technical modifications of the transtibial technique can result in anatomic tunnel entrance positioning and a properly oriented graft. This Technical Note presents our technique for anatomic transtibial ACL reconstruction.

Anatomic Double-Bundle Transtibial Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction With Ligament Advanced Reinforcement System.

Project description:It has been reported that anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) with the Ligament Advanced Reinforcement System (LARS) could obtain similar clinical outcomes to ACLR with autograft. However, in most related reports, single-bundle ACLR was performed. Given that double-bundle ACLR is more favorable than single-bundle ACLR biomechanically, it is reasonable to try double-bundle ACLR with the LARS clinically. Thus, we introduce an anatomic double-bundle transtibial ACLR technique with the LARS, in which the most critical step is to create a shallow tibial tunnel for the anteromedial bundle to further create the corresponding femoral tunnel in a transtibial manner, as well as to fix both bundles in full extension of the knee.

Posterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction With Hamstring Tendons Using a Suspensory Device for Tibial Fixation and Interference Screw for Femoral Fixation.

Project description:A technique for posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction is presented. Autologous hamstring tendons are selected as a graft. An interference screw is used for femoral fixation. A suspension device is used for tibial fixation to bring the fixation closer to the articular end of the tibial tunnel. Single diameter tunnels of the same diameter as the graft are created in an outside-in direction.

Anatomic Single-Bundle Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Using the Modified Transtibial Technique.

Project description:We present a technique for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction using hamstring tendon autograft with a modified transtibial technique. Our modified transtibial technique has the advantages of the conventional transtibial technique that is familiar to surgeons and that allows the press-fit fixing and enables us to make a relatively long femoral tunnel. To make the femoral tunnel at the anatomic position, the triangular, funnel-shaped bony trough was made to slip the eccentrically positioned guide pin into the anticipated anatomic center with a free-hand technique after marking the anatomic ACL footprint using a microfracture awl through the anteromedial portal. Gradual femoral reaming was performed with knee angle changes, which reduces the chances of posterior wall blowout, increases the femoral tunnel length, and avoids breakage of guide pin at the bending point. Our modified transtibial technique is anticipated to provide a more anatomic placement of the femoral tunnel during ACL reconstruction than the previous traditional transtibial techniques.

Posterior Wall Blowout During Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction: Suspensory Cortical Fixation With a Screw and Washer Post.

Project description:Posterior wall blowout can be a devastating intraoperative complication in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. This loss of osseous containment can cause difficulty with graft fixation and can potentially lead to early graft failure if unrecognized and left untreated. If cortical blowout occurs despite careful planning and proper surgical technique, a thorough knowledge of the local anatomy and surgical salvage options is paramount to ensure positive patient outcomes. This article highlights our preferred salvage technique using suspensory cortical fixation with a screw and washer construct.

Quadruple Semitendinosus Graft Construct and Suspensory Button Fixation for Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.

Project description:Surgical techniques for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction are evolving, becoming less invasive, with fewer and smaller incisions, preservation of knee bone stock and tendons at the donor site, and better graft positioning and fixation. We describe an anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction technique that aims to preserve bone stock and spares the gracilis. The semitendinosus graft construct is prepared in a quadruple way and fixed with a cortical button in both tunnels, with increased stiffness and resistance of the graft construct. The tibial tunnel is filled at the end of the operation with a bone dowel, keeping the bone stock intact. This technique is safe, with a short learning curve; preserves the gracilis; saves bone; and increases the stiffness and resistance of the tibial fixation.

Individualized anatomic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.

Project description:Arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACL-R) is a technique that continues to evolve. Good results have been established with respect to reducing anteroposterior laxity. However, these results have come into question because nonanatomic techniques have been ineffective at restoring knee kinematics and raised concerns that abnormal kinematics may impact long-term knee health. Anatomic ACL-R attempts to closely reproduce the patient's individual anatomic characteristics. Measurements of the patient's anatomy help determine graft choice and whether anatomic reconstruction should be performed with a single- or double-bundle technique. The bony landmarks and insertions of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) are preserved to assist with anatomic placement of both tibial and femoral tunnels. An anatomic single- or double-bundle reconstruction is performed with a goal of reproducing the characteristics of the native ACL. Long-term outcomes for anatomic ACL reconstruction are unknown. By individualizing ACL-R, we strive to reproduce the patient's native anatomy and restore knee kinematics to improve patient outcomes.

The Periosteum-Patellar Tendon-Bone Autograft for Anatomic, Single-Bundle Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction With Press-Fit Tibial Fixation.

Project description:Optimal graft choice and fixation technique are still ongoing topics of debate for primary and revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. Interference screws are frequently used as graft fixation devices but can sometimes lead to tunnel widening, cyst formation, chronic inflammation, screw breakage, and persistent pain. Tibial tunnel widening is of special concern because it is often associated with graft failure. This technical note introduces a graft technique with a periosteum-patellar tendon-bone autograft and a press-fit tibial fixation approach that could be a viable option for secure anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction while offering the possibility of a quicker postoperative recovery, less pain, and a quicker return to everyday activities.

Anatomic Double-Bundle Posterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.

Project description:The posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) is known to be the main posterior stabilizer of the knee. Anatomic single-bundle PCL reconstruction, focusing on reconstruction of the larger anterolateral bundle, is the most commonly performed procedure. Because of the residual posterior and rotational tibial instability after the single-bundle procedure and the inability to restore the normal knee kinematics, an anatomic double-bundle PCL reconstruction has been proposed in an effort to re-create the native PCL footprint more closely and to restore normal knee kinematics. We detail our technique for an anatomic double-bundle PCL reconstruction using Achilles and anterior tibialis tendon allografts.
