Patellar Tendon Repair With Ipsilateral Semitendinosus Autograft Augmentation.

ABSTRACT: Patellar tendon ruptures are rare but potentially devastating injuries. Acute repair after patellar tendon rupture affords the best opportunity for tension-free restoration of the extensor mechanism. Biological augmentation of primary repair is believed to decrease strain across the repair site and reduce the risk of rerupture. We present a technique for primary patellar tendon repair with bidirectional fixation using transosseous tunnels, suture anchor fixation, and ipsilateral hamstring autograft augmentation in a distal patellar pole socket.

Augmentation of Patellar Tendon Repair With Autologous Semitendinosus Graft-Porto Technique.

Project description:Patellar tendon ruptures can lead to significant functional deficiency of the extensor mechanism of the knee. These injuries, because of their inherent nature and associated complications, may require a complex treatment and remains a challenge for orthopaedic surgeons. Current surgical techniques present significant complications, including patellar fracture, damage to patellar articular cartilage, and abnormal patella height. This note describes a surgical technique to provide an additional reinforcement to the patellar tendon repair with a semitendinous autograft, without the necessity to perform any transosseous tunnels at the patella bone. First, the patellar tendon is repaired with an end-to-end technique and the semitendinous tendon is harvested. A transosseous tunnel at the tibial tubercle is drilled and 2 rents are made, both medial and lateral to the retinaculum at the level of the intermedial segment of the patella close to the patellar margin. The graft is passed through the tunnel and rents in a U-shaped form. The graft is sutured along the length of the patellar tendon on both margins in tension at 30° of knee flexion. Fluoroscopy imaging is performed to assess the patella height. This technique provides a significant augmentation of patellar tendon, avoiding the potential patella bone tunnel complications.

Patellar Tendon Repair With Suture Tape Augmentation for Proximal Patellar Tendon Rupture.

Project description:Patellar tendon ruptures are severe but uncommon injuries that require surgical treatment. Primary repair for acute patellar tendon ruptures using augmentation techniques has shown good results in terms of biomechanical and clinical outcomes. This Technical Note details patellar tendon repair with suture tape augmentation for proximal patellar tendon rupture. Because this surgical technique does not require harvesting of the hamstring tendon and hardware removal, it is minimally invasive. In addition, it is simple and quick to perform.

Open Repair of Quadriceps Tendon With Suture Anchors and Semitendinosus Tendon Allograft Augmentation.

Project description:Quadriceps tendinopathy in an increasingly recognized diagnosis can lead to quadriceps tendon rupture, especially in the older population. It can be caused by repeated micro trauma or also predisposed by systemic diseases such as diabetes mellitus and connective tissue disorders that can in turn lead to extensor mechanism deficits. Although a trial of conservative treatment is advocated, operative treatment should be performed in cases of persistent pain, extension deficit, or complete rupture of the tendon. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe in detail a procedure for open repair of a quadriceps tendon, with significant degeneration due to quadriceps tendinopathy, using suture anchors and semitendinosus tendon allograft augmentation.

Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Using Bone-Patellar Tendon-Bone Autograft With Suture Tape Augmentation.

Project description:The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is the most commonly injured ligament in the knee, with injury usually occurring as a result of multidirectional sports. The incidence of ACL injury has continued to increase, with most patients opting for surgery to improve stability as well as permit a return to sport. Traditional methods of ACL reconstruction can achieve this but are not without their problems, including graft rupture, residual laxity, and donor-site morbidity. There is therefore a requirement for further research into newer, innovative surgical techniques to help improve complication rates. This article describes, with video illustration, ACL reconstruction using a reduced-size bone-patellar tendon-bone autograft with suture tape augmentation. The augmentation acts as a stabilizer during the early stages of graft incorporation while resisting against reinjury during an accelerated recovery. The ability to use a reduced-size graft decreases the donor-site burden, and retention of residual native ACL tissue, when possible, may help with proprioception.

Revision Patellar Tendon Repair With Anchors, Allograft Augmentation, and Suspensory Fixation.

Project description:Ruptures of the patellar tendon are rare but potentially devastating injuries reported to occur most commonly in active males in their third and fourth decades of life. Repair failure rates have been reported to range between 2% and 50% based on surgical technique used. There are several inherent challenges associated with revision patellar tendon repair, including quadriceps atrophy, contracture, tissue loss, excessive scarring, and improper patella height. There remains no consensus regarding ideal revision patellar tendon repair technique. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe our preferred method for revision patellar tendon repair using suture anchors and allograft augmentation with adjustable loop suspensory fixation. On the basis of recent studies, we have carefully chosen our fixation and augmentation methods that have shown biomechanical promise, while allowing the surgeon to carefully titrate the patellar tendon length and accommodate for some patellar tendon tissue loss.

Patellar Tendon Reconstruction for a Chronic Extensor Mechanism Deficit Using an Achilles Tendon Allograft With Hamstring Autograft and Suture Augmentation.

Project description:Patellar tendon ruptures are the third most common injury to the extensor mechanism. These injuries are debilitating to the patient, and delays in treatment can present a challenge to the treating surgeon. Chronic patellar tendon injuries are rare and are more difficult to manage given proximal patellar retraction, scarring, and atrophy of surrounding tissues. There is no consensus on the optimal approach for treatment, and numerous reconstruction techniques have been described using a variety of graft choices and fixation methods. We describe our surgical technique for a 3-fold reconstruction of a chronic patellar tendon rupture using an Achilles tendon allograft augmented with a vascularized ipsilateral hamstring tendon autograft and additional FiberTape augmentation. The aim of this procedure is to restore patellar height and prevent extensor lag.

Anatomic Acromioclavicular Ligament Reconstruction Using Semitendinosus Autograft With Suture Augmentation: Surgical Technique.

Project description:Acromioclavicular (AC) joint separations are common injuries and account for 3.2% of shoulder injuries. These injuries typically occur among adolescent and young adult athletes during contact sports, such as hockey, wrestling, and rugby. Low-grade AC joint separations (Rockwood grade I-II) are often successfully treated nonoperatively. High-grade AC joint separations (Rockwood grade IV-VI) have the potential to alter scapular kinematics, causing painful and restricted motion, and are often treated surgically. Over 150 surgical techniques have been described to treat AC joint separations. Techniques vary in the types of implants used (screws, pins), use of anatomic or nonanatomic reconstructions, number of drill holes used, use of arthroscopic or open procedures, use of distal clavicle resection, and types of augmentation (allografts, autografts, sutures). The procedure can be expensive, with the implants and grafts costing varied amounts and, at times, thousands of dollars. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe an inexpensive method of open anatomic AC joint reconstruction using a single bone tunnel, suture tape, and a semitendinosus autograft.

The potential of using semitendinosus tendon as autograft in rabbit meniscus reconstruction.

Project description:Since transplantation of meniscal allograft or artificial menisci is limited by graft sources and a series of adverse events, substitution for meniscus reconstruction still needs to be explored. Natural biomaterials, which can provide a unique 3-D microenvironment, remain a promising alternative for tissue engineering. Among them, autograft is a preferred option for its safety and excellent biocompatibility. In this study, we utilized semitendinosus tendon autograft in meniscus reconstruction to investigate its fibrochondrogenic metaplasticity potential and chondroprotective effect. Tendon-derived stem cells (TDSCs) and synovial-derived mesenchymal stem cells (SMSCs), two most important stem cell sources in our strategy, exhibited excellent viability, distribution, proliferation and fibrochondrogenic differentiation ability in decellularized semitendinosus tendon (DST) scaffolds in vitro. Histologic evaluation of the tendon grafts in vivo suggested endogenous stem cells differentiated into fibrochondrocytes, synthesized proteoglycan, type II collagen and radial type I collagen at 12 weeks and 24 weeks post-surgery. As for elastic modulus and hardness of the grafts, there were no significant differences between native meniscus and regenerated meniscus at 24 weeks. The protection of condylar cartilage from degeneration was significantly better in the reconstruction group comparing to control group. Overall, semitendinosus tendon autograft seems to be a promising substitution in meniscus reconstruction.

Distal Patellar Tendon SpeedBridge Repair.

Project description:Patellar tendon ruptures are rare injuries in young athletes, resulting in disruption of the extensor mechanism, and require surgery for functional recovery. Several techniques have been reported, including end-to-end repair and single-row suture anchor constructs. The strength of these repairs has been questioned, and they are commonly augmented. We endorse a double-row repair technique that provides an anatomic restoration of the footprint, has high fixation strength, eliminates the need for graft augmentation, and allows early motion.
