Anterior Cruciate and Anterolateral Ligament Reconstruction Using Hamstring and Peroneus Longus Tendons: Surgical Technique Description.

ABSTRACT: The main objective of this study is to describe a surgical technique that combines intra- and extra-articular techniques using the semitendinosus, gracilis, and peroneus longus to perform reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament and anterolateral ligament. This technique offers a more stable, fast, low-cost, and widely accessible procedure and consists of drilling 3 tunnels-1 femoral and 2 tibial tunnels-in which the grafts are fixed with interference screws. The fact that the peroneus longus graft is long and thick allows for robust reconstruction of the aforementioned ligaments.

Hamstring Braid Graft Technique for Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.

Project description:Hamstring autograft is one of the most used grafts for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction, although there are several graft preparation techniques. It is extremely difficult to mimic the biomechanical properties of the native ACL; thus, it is important to achieve a proper graft configuration, diameter, and length. To avoid reruptures, an optimal and reproducible hamstring autograft is desired. Hamstring autograft has been traditionally devalued when compared with other options such as bone-patellar tendon-bone autograft. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe in detail a hamstring braid graft configuration that could potentially overcome the past disadvantages of 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.

Associated Reconstruction of Anterior Cruciate and Anterolateral Ligaments With Single Asymmetric Hamstring Tendons Graft.

Project description:The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture is a common disease that accounts for 250,000 cases/year in the United States. The anterolateral ligament (ALL) has been suggested to be an important restraint for rotational instability, and its reconstruction provides a reinforcement to the ACL reconstruction in this aspect, especially in high-demand athletes and in knees with high-grade pivot shift. Different techniques for associated ACL and ALL reconstruction have been described, but the ideal technique remains unclear. Several facts of these techniques may entail a concern to the surgeon, such as the need for several grafts or several bone tunnels. A technique for associated ACL and ALL is presented, using a single hamstring tendons graft, which is prepared asymmetrically, leaving one-third of the length with single diameter and two-thirds with double diameter. A single femoral tunnel is created, using a screw for fixation and differentiation of the grafts. A suspension device is used for tibial fixation, allowing for length adjustment according to the graft's length. The objective of this Technical Note is to provide the orthopaedic surgeon with a resource for ACL and ALL reconstruction even with relatively short grafts, saving bone stock and avoiding the need for allografts.

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. Technique Video Video 1 Surgical technique for combined anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and anterolateral ligament (ALL) reconstruction using continuous graft of semitendinosus and gracilis tendons adapted for pediatric patients. This surgical procedure allows one to perform ACL reconstruction in a patient with an immature skeleton with a limited risk of growth plate injury. The graft fixation in the femur is entirely located in the epiphysis, distally from the growth plate. In terms of the tibia, this technique offers double fixation, comprising fixation from the native insertion of the hamstring tendons and fixation achieved with a screw below the growth plate.

Combined Reconstruction of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament and Anterolateral Ligament: Triple-Strand Braided Hamstring Graft for the Anterior Cruciate Ligament and Gracilis Strand for the Anterolateral Ligament With a Single Femoral Tunnel.

Project description:This article presents a surgical technique for combined reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and anterolateral ligament (ALL) of the knee using hamstring tendon graft. This approach involves creating a single femoral tunnel and using a triple-strand braided hamstring graft for the ACL and a strand of the gracilis tendon for the ALL. This technique aims to increase strength and improve knee stability, potentially reducing the risk of reinjury. The described method provides anatomic reconstruction of the ACL and ALL and allows for combined reconstruction with just 1 graft donor site. Another advantage is that the triple braided graft takes on a tape-like shape, mimicking the native form of the ACL and theoretically increasing biomechanical strength. Combined reconstruction of the ALL and ACL has shown excellent results in specific patient groups, reducing graft failure and improving outcomes in patients with a high risk of rupture. Thus, we describe a promising option for ligament reconstruction in cases of combined ACL and ALL injuries. This method may be a valuable alternative for orthopaedic surgeons, combining anatomic reconstruction with the use of a single donor site.

Four-Strand Hamstring Diamond Braid Technique for Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.

Project description:Several factors affect the success of an anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, including graft origin, type, and morphology. Hamstring and bone-patellar tendon-bone autografts are the most widely used, and there are many different techniques of graft preparation with each. In this Technical Note and accompanying video, a 4-strand hamstring autograft technique is described that uses a simple diamond-type braid to produce a more ovoid morphology with increased cross-sectional area. Increased graft diameters have been associated with higher success rates and more positive long-term outcomes. Therefore, this braiding construct may provide additional tensile strength with increased resistance to failure than grafts that are otherwise undersized using conventional techniques.

Influence of anthropometric features on peroneus longus graft diameter in Anterior Cruciate Ligament reconstruction: A cohort study.

Project description:BackgroundAnterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) is the most common ligament injury during sports activities that was treated with ACL reconstruction. Nowadays, peroneus longus is used in ACL reconstruction. However, it is difficult to predict the peroneus longus graft diameter for ACL reconstruction. Thus, preoperative measurements are very important to predict peroneus longus autograft for ACL reconstruction.MethodsA cohort retrospective study was conducted using consecutive sampling method from February 2016 until October 2017 in our center. We recorded patients' characteristics include gender, age, body weight, height, and Body Mass Index (BMI) preoperatively. We measured peroneus longus graft diameter intraoperatively, and analysed data using Spearman correlation.ResultsThirty-nine patients met inclusion criteria. There were 28 males and 11 females in the peroneus group. From the patients' mean characteristics, age was 25.10 ± 9.16, body weight 71.23 ± 14.17, height 169.13 ± 8.81, and BMI 20.96 ± 3.44. Intraoperative peroneus longus diameter measurement was 8.56 ± 0.82. Spearman correlation showed significant correlation between intraoperative peroneus longus diameter with patient's height, body weight, and BMI with p < 0.05.ConclusionPatients' characteristics including gender, height, weight, and BMI in preoperative measurements can predict peoneus longus graft diameter intraoperatively.

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.
