Arthroscopic Minced Cartilage Implantation (MCI): A Technical Note.

ABSTRACT: Articular cartilage lesions are identified with increasing frequency. Several cartilage repair techniques are available to treat symptomatic cartilage defects. The ultimate goal of any cartilage repair procedure is the prevention of premature osteoarthritis. Autologous chondrocyte implantation provides the best tissue quality. However, 2 operations and a resource-intense culturing process with high regulatory demands are disadvantages of this cartilage repair procedure. Furthermore, cellular dedifferentiation and senescence display further cell culture-associated drawbacks that hamper the procedure. Minced cartilage implantation is a relatively simple and cost-effective one-step procedure with promising biologic potential and satisfying clinical results. We present an arthroscopic surgical technique where the surgeon can apply autologous chondrocytes in a one-step procedure to treat articular cartilage defects at the knee joint.

Arthroscopic Minced Cartilage Implantation for Chondral Lesions at the Talus: A Technical Note.

Project description:In the past few years, autologous chondrocyte implantation has been shown to be the most suitable cartilage reconstructive technique with the best tissue quality. Although this method is part of the standard surgical repertoire in the knee joint, it has so far not been an established method in the ankle because there are no prospective randomized controlled studies to prove a significant advantage over alternative methods of cartilage repair. The methods most frequently used in this context (e.g., marrow stimulation techniques) can, however, at most generate hyaline-like and thus biomechanically inferior regenerates. Minced cartilage implantation, on the other hand, is a relatively simple and cost-effective 1-step procedure with promising biological potential and-at least in the knee joint-satisfactory clinical results. We present an arthroscopic surgical technique by which the surgeon can apply autologous chondrocytes in a 1-step procedure (AutoCart; Arthrex, Munich, Germany) to treat articular cartilage defects in the ankle joint.

Minced Cartilage Implantation for a Cystic Defect on the Femoral Head-Technical Note.

Project description:Chondral injuries of the femoral head and their possible progression to osteoarthritis is well known. Regarding focal lesions in young patients, microfracturing or autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI) are the most frequent used techniques to address them. Although ACI provides the better tissue quality, it is a two-step procedure and needs a lot of resources. Mincing cartilage is an old technique that has become popular again over the last few years, with good short-term results in threatening cartilage lesion in the knee. It seems intriguing to transfer this technique to the hip because you can harvest good-quality cartilage from the cam lesion, and it is a one-step procedure using autologous thrombin and fibrin. This technical note describes the repair of a parafoveal chondral defect using minced cartilage via surgical dislocation of the hip.

All arthroscopic medial meniscus inside out repair- Technical note.

Project description:Concomitant meniscal injuries are common in patients with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) insufficiency. Along with ACL reconstruction, meniscal repair offers better outcomes. This requires multiple incisions for both procedures. We present a novel technique of medial meniscus inside out repair using only the tibial tunnel wound without making an additional posteromedial incision. This is the first such description of this novel technique in a 21 year old male who underwent ACL reconstruction along with bucket handle medial meniscal repair.

Arthroscopic Juvenile Allograft Cartilage Implantation for Cartilage Lesions of the Hip.

Project description:Cartilage lesions in the hip are of high prevalence. Most of these lesions are treated with microfracture. Microfracture has relatively good subjective outcomes for smaller lesions; however, it is limited by the ability to reproduce hyaline cartilage, especially in older patients. For larger chondral defects, we present a technique using juvenile allograft cartilage implantation implanted arthroscopically to treat cartilage lesions in the hip. The purpose of this technical note is to describe the arthroscopic technique for treating chondral lesions in the hip with allograft juvenile cartilage.

Arthroscopic Management of a Coracoid Fracture Associated With Acromioclavicular Dislocation: Technical Note.

Project description:Operative management of a coracoid process fracture is indicated in case of painful nonunion, displacement of more than 1 cm, or multiple disruptions of the superior shoulder suspensory complex. Several techniques have been described with open reduction of the fracture and internal fixation using cortical screws with or without additional fixation of the acromioclavicular joint. This Technical Note aims to introduce an alternative safe, minimally invasive method for arthroscopic fixation of a coracoid fracture with simultaneously reduction of the acromioclavicular joint. The described arthroscopic technique might be helpful for shoulder surgeons who want to fix the coracoid process while avoiding the disadvantages of an open approach.

Arthroscopic sternoclavicular joint resection arthroplasty: a technical note and illustrated case report.

Project description:Open resection arthroplasty of the sternoclavicular (SC) joint has historically provided good long-term results in patients with symptomatic osteoarthritis of the SC joint. However, the procedure is rarely performed because of the risk of injury to vital mediastinal structures and concern regarding postoperative joint instability. Arthroscopic decompression of the SC joint has therefore emerged as a potential treatment option because of many recognized advantages including minimal tissue dissection, maintenance of joint stability, avoidance of posterior SC joint dissection, expeditious recovery, and improved cosmesis. There are, however, safety concerns given the proximity of neurovascular structures. In this article we demonstrate a technique for arthroscopic SC joint resection arthroplasty in a 26-year-old active man with bilateral, painful, idiopathic degenerative SC joint osteoarthritis. This case also highlights the pearls and pitfalls of arthroscopic resection arthroplasty for the SC joint. There were no perioperative complications. Four months postoperatively, the patient had returned to full activities, including weightlifting, without pain or evidence of SC joint instability. One year postoperatively, the patient showed substantial improvements in the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons score; Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation score; Quick Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand score; and Short Form 12 Physical Component Summary score over preoperative baseline values.

Minced Cartilage Procedure for One-Stage Arthroscopic Repair of Chondral Defects at the Glenohumeral Joint.

Project description:Chondral defects of the glenohumeral joint are common but still remain a diagnostic and management challenge. Whereas arthroplasty is a reasonable treatment option in the elderly and low-demand population, joint preservation should be aimed for the remaining patients. For larger defects the current gold standard of treatment is autologous chondrocyte implantation. However, disadvantages such as high cost, the restriction in availability of specialized laboratories, and the 2-stage surgical design need to be accounted for if choosing this option. Showing first good clinical results for the knee joint, minced cartilage implantation is moreover a cost-effective procedure bringing autologous cartilage chips harvested from the defect walls and bringing them into the area of damage in a single-step open or arthroscopic approach. We describe an arthroscopic strategy of this technique to treat chondral defects at the glenohumeral joint.

Arthroscopic Identification of the Knee Posterolateral Corner Structures and Anatomic Arthroscopic Posterolateral Corner Reconstruction: Technical Note - Part 2.

Project description:Posterolateral corner injuries are complex injuries, and their therapeutic management varies from one individual to another. Biomechanical studies demonstrate that anatomic posterolateral corner reconstruction restores knee kinematics better than nonanatomic reconstruction. The purpose of this report is to describe an all-arthroscopic procedure for anatomic posterolateral corner reconstruction.

Arthroscopic Reduction and Internal Fixation for Pipkin Type I Femoral Head Fracture: Technical Note.

Project description:Femoral head fractures after posterior dislocation of the hip are uncommon and are conventionally treated by an open method. Hip arthroscopy can be a valuable treatment option for the management of femoral head fractures. Arthroscopy allows for a less invasive option when compared with arthrotomy and can allow faster recovery with minimal soft-tissue injury. We describe the arthroscopic reduction and internal fixation of Pipkin type I femoral head fractures with a detailed stepwise description of the surgical technique, including technical pearls and pitfalls, potential complications, and advantages and disadvantages.
