Lateral Extra-articular Tenodesis: A Technique With an Iliotibial Band Strand Without Implants.

ABSTRACT: The main goal in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) should be to restore normal knee biomechanics so the chances of failure decrease. The persistence of knee instability after ACLR goes from 0.7% to 20%. Several factors have been identified and studied, but there are some selected cases in which it seems that without adding lateral extra-articular tenodesis (LET) it is not possible to control rotational instability. Data exist supporting that LET could reduce pivot shift (PS), without losing flexion/extension range of motion nor adding risk of osteoarthritis. Recently, LET has been used in addition to ACLR to add restriction to internal tibial rotation forces, and different authors have shown their techniques to achieve this task. Also, biomechanical studies have compared different techniques for LET procedures. This article aims to describe our technique performing a modified Macintosh LET as an addition to ACLR in selected patients who require extra internal tibial rotation control. This is a reproducible, easy to learn, and inexpensive procedure in terms that only a high resistance suture is needed and not any other implant, such as a stapler, anchors, or screws, reducing the risk of tunnel coalition.

Intra-articular Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction With Extra-articular Lateral Tenodesis of the Iliotibial Band.

Project description:An increasing concern has been given to the rotation stability of the knee in the setting of an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. This growing interest stems from a better understanding of the rotational stability of the knee afforded by the identification of the anterolateral ligament. Previously, a residual abnormal pivot-shift test had been found after an anatomic single-band reconstruction of the ACL because of a lack of rotational stability, which may lead to the development of osteoarthritis. Residual instability affects function, especially in high-demand athletes who perform many flexion-rotation movements during sporting activity. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe our preferred method of intra-articular ACL reconstruction using a hamstring tendon autograft in combination with an extra-articular iliotibial band tenodesis for reinforcement of rotational stability.

Lateral Tenodesis Associated With an Intra-articular Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Without Proximal Disinsertion of Iliotibial Band.

Project description:The persistence of rotational instability after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction has been studied by several authors in the past 10 years. Although ACL lesions are currently treated arthroscopically, in the recent past, they were treated with isolated extra-articular tenodesis alone. Understanding the role and importance of anterolateral structures in the pathophysiology of rotational knee instability has increased since the rediscovery of the anterolateral ligament, and combined intra- and extra-articular reconstructions have been increasingly investigated. We sought to describe an option of lateral tenodesis associated with the ACL reconstruction through an iliotibial band tenodesis, without the need for large incisions or extra fixation devices, in a simple, fast, and reproducible manner.

Lateral Extra-articular Tenodesis With Proximal Staple Fixation.

Project description:A technique for lateral extra-articular tenodesis using proximal staple fixation is described as an adjunct to anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. Lateral extra-articular tenodesis has been used in an effort to decrease failure rates in ACL-deficient patients with ligamentous laxity, prior failed ACL surgery, or grade 3 pivot-shift findings. Numerous surgeons have described combining ACL reconstruction with extra-articular surgery. The approach described in this article is easy and cost-effective. Moreover, because this technique uses a staple instead of a SwiveLock (Arthrex, Naples, FL) or other suture anchor, it limits the chance of conflicting with the tunnels for the ACL because there is no need to drill or punch additional tunnels.

Clinical Results of Lateral Extra-Articular Tenodesis.

Project description:In the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) deficient knee, excellent outcomes are achieved in many patients with an isolated, intra-articular ACL reconstruction. Some patients, however, have ongoing instability or suffer graft rupture. Failure after ACL reconstruction is multifactorial, but residual anterolateral rotatory laxity is 1 potential contributing factor. Lateral extra-articular procedures are a heterogenous group of operations that were initially described as isolated treatments for the ACL deficient knee, and subsequently used in combination with intra-articular reconstructions. Initial observational studies were encouraging, however, comparative studies were less flattering and lead to a general abandonment of these procedures. With improved understanding of the anatomy and biomechanics of the anterolateral capsuloligamentous complex there has been a renewed interest in these procedures. Recent systematic reviews suggest efficacy of these procedures in improving rotational control, though data showing improved patient reported outcomes or reduced graft rupture rates are lacking. Preliminary results from ongoing clinical trials are supportive for lateral extra-articular tenodesis when used as an augment to modern, intra-articular ACL reconstructions in targeted, high-risk patients.

Combined Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction and Lateral Extra-Articular Tenodesis.

Project description:Anterolateral rotational instability may persist after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction for a variety of reasons including damage to lateral or posterolateral structures, injury to the meniscus, disruption of anterolateral soft tissue structures, or increased tibial slope. In the setting of revision or primary ACL reconstruction with persistent anterolateral laxity, despite repair or reconstruction of other injured structures or in the setting of increased tibial slope, a lateral extra-articular tenodesis procedure can be used to augment an ACL reconstruction to aid in restoring anterolateral rotational stability and to upload the ACL reconstruction graft. This article details our technique for performing a modified Lemaire lateral extra-articular tenodesis using iliotibial band autograft as an adjunct to ACL reconstruction.

Arthroscopic-Assisted Lateral Meniscal Allograft Transplantation With Open Ligamentous Extra-Articular Tenodesis.

Project description:Lateral meniscus allograft transplantation is performed in predominantly young, active patients and is an option to stabilize the joint in lateral meniscus-deficient patients after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. The lateral meniscus functions as an important restraint to anterior tibial translation, and meniscal transplant in such a patient may improve survivability of the graft in addition to preserving the patient's articular cartilage in the long term. A ligamentous extra-articular tenodesis procedure may be performed simultaneously to augment rotational stability of the joint, particularly in a patient with underlying ligamentous hyperlaxity.

Iliotibial Band Tenodesis With a Tenodesis Screw for Augmentation of Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.

Project description:Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with lateral extra-articular tenodesis using a strip of the iliotibial band (ITB) has been shown to increase postoperative stability of the knee. This Technical Note describes a method of ITB tenodesis in which a central slip of the ITB is passed deep to the lateral collateral ligament and then rerouted anteriorly for fixation at a location anterior and proximal to the lateral femoral epicondyle. Five whipstitches are passed through the ITB, and a second distal suture is tied around the distal end. Of the 4 suture tails, 3 are passed through a tenodesis screwdriver, and the screw is placed in the previously reamed bone socket. A closed loop is formed around the tenodesis screw by tying off the suture tails. This technique creates a sling around the lateral collateral ligament, which serves as a checkrein to internal rotation in cases in which increased stability is warranted, such as revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction in an athlete.

Iliotibial Band Lengthening: An Arthroscopic Surgical Technique.

Project description:Iliotibial (IT) band syndrome is a common cause of lateral knee pain in runners and cyclists. Many can be treated nonoperatively; however, some may require surgical lengthening of their IT band to achieve optimal pain relief and a return to preinjury level of activity. Several studies have been published detailing surgical lengthening procedures and satisfactory outcomes after these procedures. However, it is important to continue to improve on and optimize outcomes. We present our arthroscopic IT band-lengthening procedure.

Arthroscopic Hip Labral Augmentation Technique With Iliotibial Band Graft.

Project description:The importance of the acetabular labrum has been well documented for the function and overall health of the hip joint. Several biomechanical studies have shown the sealing effect of the acetabular labrum. In the past decade, labral repair procedures have gained increased attention, with the literature suggesting that the outcomes after hip arthroscopy are directly related to labral preservation. However, a primary labral repair can be challenging in cases of hypoplastic, ossified, or complex and irreparable labral tears in which there is insufficient tissue to perform a primary repair. For these cases, labral reconstruction becomes a viable option with good outcomes at short-term and midterm follow-up. A subset of these patients may show viable remnants of the labral circumferential fibers but, because of the low tissue volume, these remnant fibers are unable to maintain the suction seal. In this situation, a labral augmentation may be a viable alternative to labral reconstruction while preserving as much native labral tissue as possible. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe an arthroscopic hip labral augmentation technique using iliotibial band autograft or allograft.

Modified Lemaire Lateral Extra-articular Tenodesis in the Pediatric Patient: An Adjunct to Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.

Project description:Recent literature has identified a population of active adolescents aged 13 to 15 years who are at high risk for anterior cruciate ligament graft rupture. Addressing the anterolateral complex during primary anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction has recently re-emerged in the literature, with various techniques available. This paper aims to describe a lateral extra-articular tenodesis procedure using the iliotibial band with a modified Lemaire technique. This procedure is recommended for active adolescents at a high risk of graft re-tear as an enhancement to primary anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with soft-tissue graft.
