Arthroscopy Primary Double-Bundle Repair of Anterior Cruciate Ligament With Internal Brace Augmentation and a Knotless Anchor Implant.

ABSTRACT: The primary repair technique of acute anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears has been controversially discussed over the past few decades. Many different suture techniques have been reported for ACL repair, but these procedures showed high re-rupture rates and poor results. Recently, the literature has reported excellent outcomes with primary ACL repair. There has been a resurging interest in modernizing and augmenting primary ACL repair. This article describes a technique that uses internal brace augmentation and a knotless anchor (Arthrex) implant for primary anatomic double-bundle ACL repair after an acute proximal ACL tear. This technique aims to advocate natural healing by the high-strength internal brace augmentation and knotless anchor as a provisional scaffold during the healing phase and early mobilization. This technique might be an alternative to conventional ACL reconstruction in the appropriate selection of patients.

Knotless Primary Anterior Cruciate Ligament Repair with Adjustable Loop Device and Internal Brace Augmentation.

Project description:With the recent resurgence of primary anterior cruciate ligament repair, it is important to strive for optimal patient outcomes. This knotless primary repair procedure takes advantage of the use of an adjustable loop device, which allows for intraoperative retensioning by the surgeon. This technical advancement combined with augmentation with an internal brace could potentially minimize gap formation at the repair site, thereby increasing repair stability and ultimate outcome.

Allograft Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Utilizing Internal Brace Augmentation.

Project description:Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears are among the most common sports-related injuries. Although studies have reported reliable outcomes with allograft tissue, several studies have shown a higher failure rate in younger patients. Although ACL graft augmentation has been met with varying levels of success, internal bracing of an allograft represents a promising area in ACL reconstruction. The purpose of this article is to detail allograft preparation involving a collagen-coated, ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene/polyester suture tape as an internal brace augmentation for ACL reconstruction using the all-inside ACL GraftLink Technique (Arthrex, Naples, FL).

A Hybrid Repair Technique Combining Single-Bundle Reconstruction and Primary Repair With Internal Brace Augmentation for Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injury.

Project description:Recently, favorable outcomes of primary anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) repair have been reported in patients with proximal tears and good tissue quality. If the tear involves the midsubstance of the ACL fibers or Sherman type II or III injury, independent primary repair will cause a higher failure rate at long-term follow-up. For these cases, we conduct primary repair and apply an internal brace and single-bundle reconstruction as hybrid augmentation. This hybrid repair technique encourages natural healing of the primary ligament by the internal brace and single-bundle graft as a provisional scaffold during the healing phase, as well as early mobilization. We describe our ACL hybrid repair technique, using a video and illustrations.

Anterior Cruciate Ligament Repair Using a Knotless Suture Implant.

Project description:Recent orthopedic literature has shown that primary repair for femoral-sided avulsion tears of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) can be successful. Primary ACL repair avoids invasive reconstruction techniques, graft-site morbidity, and the loss of native anatomy while producing excellent results in appropriately selected patients. Here we describe our patient selection parameters, ACL repair technique, and rehabilitation protocol.

Primary Anterior Cruciate Ligament Single-Bundle Repair With Augmentation for a Partial Anterior Cruciate Ligament Tear.

Project description:Although anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction remains the gold standard for the treatment of ACL tears, repair is regaining popularity as a treatment option for proximal or distal ACL avulsions. Historically, ACL repairs had poor outcomes. To remedy this, techniques were developed using graft-based augmentation but never gained widespread popularity. Recently, there has been a renewed interest in primary ligament repairs, with newer techniques incorporating modern synthetic materials to augment the repair site. The term "internal bracing," or ligament repair with augmentation, has been used to describe the new philosophy for primary ligament repair and augmentation. We present our technique for arthroscopic primary ACL repair with augmentation for a proximal posterolateral bundle tear. The advantages of this technique include preservation of the intact fibers of the anteromedial bundle, intuitive suture augmentation with standard ACL tunnel placement techniques, and the ability to calibrate ligament tension.

Percutaneous Anterior Cruciate Ligament Repair With Needle Arthroscopy and Biological Augmentation.

Project description:Recent advancements in orthopaedic devices have instilled a renewed interest in repair of the anterior cruciate ligament. Biological augmentation of the repair has also recently been investigated with the hopes of improving repair outcomes and improving biological healing. The advent of needle arthroscopy allows for potentially decreased recovery times and potentially reduced complication rates compared with traditional arthroscopy. The purpose of this article is to present a percutaneous technique to repair the anterior cruciate ligament with suture tape augmentation while also augmenting with the biological byproducts from the native effusion using needle arthroscopy.

Single-Bundle Augmentation for a Partial Tear of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament.

Project description:Given the prevalence of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears in young athletes, it is essential to elucidate and illustrate surgical interventions that return the most favorable outcomes. Although most ACL injuries are full-thickness tears, occasionally either the anteromedial (AM) or posterolateral (PL) bundle is torn in isolation, allowing consideration of an ACL reconstruction or augmentation. Because the ACL-deficient knee has been shown to exhibit less proprioceptive feedback, the preservation of the intact bundle may offer an inherent component of stability. After arthroscopy has confirmed a partial ACL tear, the decision to augment the intact bundle can be made. The technique is adapted from principles of the double-bundle reconstruction such that the graft follows the path of either the native AM bundle or the native PL bundle, depending on the location of the partial tear. We present our surgical technique for ACL AM bundle augmentation with PL bundle reconstruction using a semitendinosus tendon autograft.

All-Inside Arthroscopic Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction and Internal Brace With Recycling Suture.

Project description:Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture is a common injury of the knee. Arthroscopic ACL reconstruction is a standard treatment for this condition. All-inside ACL reconstruction has many advantages compared with conventional techniques. However, there are still concerns regarding graft elongation and stability with all-inside ACL reconstruction. Here, we propose an arthroscopic technique using the shortening strands of a flexible suspensory button as an internal brace. This method provides the advantages of increased stability and ACL graft protection while using the same implant as the all-inside ACL reconstruction technique.
