Two-Stage Revision Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction: Bone Grafting Technique Using an Allograft Bone Matrix.

ABSTRACT: Outcomes of primary anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction have been reported to be far superior to those of revision reconstruction. However, as the incidence of ACL reconstruction is rapidly increasing, so is the number of failures. The subsequent need for revision ACL reconstruction is estimated to occur in up to 13,000 patients each year in the United States. Revision ACL reconstruction can be performed in one or two stages. A two-stage approach is recommended in cases of improper placement of the original tunnels or in cases of unacceptable tunnel enlargement. The aim of this study was to describe the technique for allograft ACL tunnel bone grafting in patients requiring a two-stage revision ACL reconstruction.

Two-Stage Revision Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Using Allograft Bone Dowels.

Project description:Revision anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction is substantially more challenging than primary reconstruction. Management of previously malpositioned or widened tunnels often requires innovative approaches for managing bony defects. Massive osteolysis with poor bone stock and convergence or overlapping of revision tunnels into the previously placed tunnels may necessitate a staged revision procedure. In this surgical technique description, we describe a method for the management of bony deficiencies using allograft bone dowels in staged revision ACL reconstruction.

Two-Stage Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Revision Surgery for Severe Bone Defects With Anterolateral Ligament Reconstruction Technique.

Project description:Anterior cruciate ligament revision surgery poses a number of specific difficulties. These include the lack of bone mass to enable effective fixation of the reconstruction, morbidity of the donor area when bone autograft is used to fill the tunnels, and absence of the semitendinosus and gracilis homolateral tendons in cases in which they have already been used in the primary surgical procedure. To address all these problems, we describe a 2-stage revision technique that uses bone allograft for tunnel filling and Achilles allograft for ligament reconstruction. In addition, the intervention includes an extra-articular phase in which the anterolateral ligament is reinforced to increase the rotational stability of the knee, thus improving the prognosis of operation.

Revision Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction: Tibial Tunnel-First Graft-Sizing Technique.

Project description:Revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (R-ACLR) has become more common as the number of failed primary ACLRs increase. Although increasingly common, R-ACLR has a greater failure rate than a primary reconstruction. Technical errors, particularly in tunnel placement, account for a large proportion of graft failure in R-ACLR as well as re-revision cases. Tunnel placement and trajectory is particularly important in R-ACLR and becomes more challenging with each additional revision attempt. This is in part because any tunnels created for revision may converge with formerly drilled tunnels or face interference hardware creating, complicating proper graft fixation. While there are many approaches to revision ACL surgery, our technique describes a simple, tibial tunnel-first graft-sizing method initially reaming tunnels with very small diameters and sequentially working your way up to more anatomic diameters.

Two-Stage Revision Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction with Cannulated Allograft Bone Dowels Soaked in Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate.

Project description:Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) is one of the most common orthopedic procedures performed each year. The majority of patients undergoing these reconstructions will experience long-term stability and symptomatic relief; however, some will require a revision ACLR procedure. In general, revision ACLRs are more challenging than primary ACLRs due to several diagnostic and technical considerations. A revision ACLR can be performed with either a one-stage or two-stage procedure, which is based on the presence or absence of malpositioned tunnels, bone loss, and tunnel expansion. Recently, the introduction of preshaped allograft bone dowels as a bone grafting option has gained popularity. They provide immediate structural stability and avoid donor site morbidity associated with autografts. The purpose of this article is to outline a bone-grafting tunnel technique with cannulated allograft bone dowels soaked in bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC) used in the first stage of a staged revision ACLR procedure.

Combined Revision Anterior Cruciate Ligament and Anterolateral Ligament Reconstruction.

Project description:There has been a substantial increase in the number of revision anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstructions performed in the past decade. This Technical Note describes combined revision ACL and anterolateral ligament reconstruction using outside-in drilling, which avoids the need for 2-stage revision ACL reconstruction because it allows unconstrained anatomic placement.

Achilles Tendon Allograft Preparation Technique for Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction: A Technical Note.

Project description:Several factors associated with graft preparation for the surgery of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) like the wrong thawed, prophylaxis, bone cuts, excessive bone removal as well as positioning problems like a tunnels-graft mismatch, insufficient harvesting of the donor's tendon, size graft limitations (length and diameter), uncontrolled rotation of graft in their longitudinal axis, over or under tensioned graft, fixation mistakes, bone defects, secondary arthrofibrosis or morbidity of the donor site, and others factors importantly affect the outcomes of the ACL surgery. In this sense, the Achilles tendon Allograft is an advantageous technique where many of the previous limitation factors described can be controlled during an appropriate preparation. However, to obtain the maximum potentialities of the graft a detailed knowledge of the preparation is required. Hence, we aimed to describe how to prepare the Achilles tendon Allograft to control the graft's length and diameter, bone removal, and fixation requirements.

Economic Reliable Technique for Tunnel Grafting Using Iliac Crest Bone Graft in Two-Staged Revision Anterior Cruciate Ligament Surgery.

Project description:Revision anterior cruciate ligament surgery is a technically demanding procedure. Mal-positioned tunnels together with bone loss and its management are some of the difficulties and challenges faced. Two-staged procedures have successfully been used to tackle those challenges. We present a technique that is safe, reliable, reproducible, and economic in the management of bone defects faced in anterior cruciate ligament revision surgery by using iliac crest bone graft. Preoperative assessment of tunnel position and size is done by computed tomography. Tri-cortical iliac crest bone graft is harvested through a trap door. It is then shaped to fit the tunnels to be filled. It is tapered at the advancing end to facilitate introduction. Mounted on a passing pin and a drill bit, the graft is arthroscopically introduced into the femoral and tibial tunnels. The second stage is performed after the graft has incorporated, as seen on postoperative computed tomography, done at approximately 3 months after the first stage. Iliac crest provides a natural abundant reservoir for bone graft and has all the advantages of being an autograft. With good meticulous technique, complications can be avoided with less donor-site morbidity. This technique is safe, reliable, and reproducible. It provides an ample amount of graft and harvest does not rely on implants; hence, it is economic.

Single-Stage Anterior Cruciate Ligament Revision Reconstruction Using an Allograft Bone Dowel for a Malpositioned and Widened Femoral Tunnel.

Project description:Tunnel widening, osteolysis, and/or malposition can be a cause of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction failure and a challenging problem to treat when performing revision ACL reconstruction (RACLR). Traditionally, problematic tunnels that interfere with bony stability and incorporation of the new graft at the time of revision have been treated with staged procedures-bone grafting first, followed by a return several months later for the revision reconstruction after bony incorporation has occurred. Multiple staged procedures increase the level of risk the patient may encounter and increase cost and resource utilization. In addition, they prolong the recovery period for the patient. In recent years, several studies have evaluated the clinical outcomes of performing bone grafting of tunnels and concomitant RACLR in a single-stage setting in an effort to mitigate these issues. We describe a technique by which a malpositioned and widened femoral tunnel from a primary ACL failure is treated with bone grafting using an allograft dowel, as well as immediate RACLR using a bone-patellar tendon-bone allograft.

Anteromedial Portal Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction With Tibialis Anterior Allograft.

Project description:In an effort to better restore normal joint function and kinematics, recent emphasis has been placed on surgical techniques that provide a more anatomic reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). With femoral tunnel placement shown to play a vital role in the biomechanics, stability, and clinical outcomes after ACL reconstruction, approaches that better approximate the ACL's native femoral origin have been adopted. The independent anteromedial portal technique is thought to better position the femoral tunnel within the native ACL footprint and leave the graft more posteroinferior on the wall of the lateral femoral condyle than the more traditional transtibial approach. This article outlines the surgical technique for an anteromedial portal ACL reconstruction with a tibialis anterior allograft fixed with the Mitek Femoral and Tibial Intrafix sheath and screw system (DePuy Synthes, Raynham, MA).
