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

ABSTRACT: 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.

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.

Combined, Pedicled Anterior Cruciate Ligament and Anterolateral Ligament Reconstruction - "PAAR" Technique.

Project description:Despite constant development of surgical implants, instruments, and rehabilitation protocols, the outcomes of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction remain unpredictable, and the failure rate of isolated procedures remains unacceptably high. Several factors possibly concerning suboptimal outcomes and risk of graft rerupture have been highlighted, among which are graft healing, tunnel position, and residual rotational instability. Recent studies have suggested that addressing anterolateral complex injury and enhancing graft healing properties might improve the outcomes of surgery. We propose a simple technique of combined anterior cruciate ligament and anterolateral ligament reconstruction using pedicled semitendinosus and gracilis tendons with a single femoral tunnel and no additional tibial tunnels.

Arthroscopic Bone Graft Technique for Two-Stage Revision Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.

Project description:Revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction is an increasingly common procedure, with 2-stage surgery often required to address large bone defects and malpositioned tunnels. The arthroscopic bone grafting technique described herein uses morselized allograft bone to provide reproducible fill of asymmetrical bone defects without autograft harvest or additional loss of native bone. The second stage of the anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction can typically proceed 6 months following bone grafting.

Single-Stage Revision Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Using the Stacked Screws Technique.

Project description:Single-stage revision anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction is preferable to 2-stage revision, when possible, as it avoids an additional surgery and recovery period. Malpositioned and/or widened bone tunnels are a common cause of ACL reconstruction failure and are challenging to manage in revision reconstructions. The "stacked screws construct" fills the previous malpositioned tunnels and bone voids with an oversized biocomposite screw as graft material. The revised tunnel can then be drilled in an anatomic "primary" location, even partially overlapping the filler screw. This technique simplifies tunnel management in revision ACL reconstruction.

Modified Technique for Combined Reconstruction of Anterior Cruciate Ligament and Anterolateral Ligament.

Project description:During the past few decades, surgical techniques for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction have been developing significantly. To date, studies have shown that after ACL reconstruction, rotational stability has a greater impact on the patient's satisfaction, functional scores, and return to sports than translational stability. Although challenged by many authors in the literature, biomechanical studies on the anterolateral ligament (ALL) of the knee and clinical studies regarding ALL reconstruction have been revealing promising results. Thus, the potentially significant role of the ALL in biomechanical load sharing and improving rotational control of the knee has led to the development of various reconstruction techniques whose goal is to achieve simplicity and yield the best results possible. Guided by this idea, we have developed a modified ACL-ALL reconstruction surgical technique. In this article, our simple, bone-saving, anatomic technique to reconstruct both the ACL and ALL using hamstring tendon autograft is described.

Combined Anterior Cruciate Ligament and Anterolateral Ligament Reconstruction in Pediatric Patients: Surgical Technique.

Project description:Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture is a common affliction in the athletic population. In pediatric patients, the immature skeleton with active growth plates is an issue that makes ACL reconstruction surgery technically challenging. The rerupture rate after ACL reconstruction is higher in the pediatric population than in the adult population. The addition of anterolateral ligament (ALL) reconstruction has been shown to be an effective way to reduce the rate of graft rupture and to control rotatory instability (pivot shift). Therefore, it appears necessary to combine ACL and ALL reconstruction in the pediatric population. We describe the surgical steps for combined ACL and ALL reconstruction adapted for young patients with active growth plates.

Combined Anterior Cruciate Ligament and Anterolateral Ligament Reconstruction.

Project description:Despite technologic advances in the surgical technique for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction, some patients continue to have rotational instability postoperatively. Recently, authors have reported the anatomic and functional characteristics of the anterolateral ligament (ALL), a structure that originates near the lateral epicondyle on the femur and inserts on the tibia between the Gerdy tubercle and the fibular head. Recent biomechanical studies have shown the ALL is an important stabilizer against anterolateral tibial rotation, and its reconstruction has shown excellent initial clinical results. Several techniques have been developed to try to anatomically address this structure in the setting of an ACL reconstruction. This article details a simple anatomic technique to reconstruct the ACL and the ALL of the knee using hamstring tendon autograft and maintaining the semitendinosus insertion.

Combined Double-Bundle Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction and Anterior Cruciate Ligament-Mimicking Anterolateral Structure Reconstruction.

Project description:The outcomes of double-bundle anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction leave room for improvement. We hope to augment double-bundle ACL reconstruction with the reconstruction of an ACL-mimicking anterolateral structure (ALS). Thus, we would like to introduce a combined double-bundle ACL reconstruction and ACL-mimicking ALS reconstruction technique. The main indication for this technique is ACL injury with a high degree of pivot shift test, general laxity, or near critical value of the posterior tibial slope. The main steps in this technique include preparation of an isolated graft for the anteromedial bundle of the ACL and a combined graft for the posterolateral bundle of the ACL and ALS, creation of three tibial tunnels and two femoral tunnels, graft placement, and final graft fixation at an adjustable loop. We have obtained promising clinical outcomes with this technique and consider that this report will provide new options in ACL reconstruction.

Combined Anterior Cruciate Ligament Repair and Anterolateral Ligament Reconstruction.

Project description:There has been a renewed interest in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) repairs over the last decade with some early promising results in the right patient population. Additionally, the anterolateral ligament has been extensively studied and has recently been shown to have a protective effect on standard ACL reconstructions in a clinical trial. Given its protective effect on ACL reconstructions, we believe this phenomenon is also relevant to ACL repairs and can decrease rerupture rates. In this publication, we demonstrate a surgical technique for ACL repair using an internal brace combined with an anterolateral ligament reconstruction using a gracilis autograft.

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

Project description: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.
