Two-Stage Revision Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction with Cannulated Allograft Bone Dowels Soaked in Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate.

ABSTRACT: Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) is one of the most common orthopedic procedures performed each year. The majority of patients undergoing these reconstructions will experience long-term stability and symptomatic relief; however, some will require a revision ACLR procedure. In general, revision ACLRs are more challenging than primary ACLRs due to several diagnostic and technical considerations. A revision ACLR can be performed with either a one-stage or two-stage procedure, which is based on the presence or absence of malpositioned tunnels, bone loss, and tunnel expansion. Recently, the introduction of preshaped allograft bone dowels as a bone grafting option has gained popularity. They provide immediate structural stability and avoid donor site morbidity associated with autografts. The purpose of this article is to outline a bone-grafting tunnel technique with cannulated allograft bone dowels soaked in bone marrow aspirate concentrate (BMAC) used in the first stage of a staged revision ACLR procedure.

Two-Stage Revision Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Using Allograft Bone Dowels.

Project description:Revision anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction is substantially more challenging than primary reconstruction. Management of previously malpositioned or widened tunnels often requires innovative approaches for managing bony defects. Massive osteolysis with poor bone stock and convergence or overlapping of revision tunnels into the previously placed tunnels may necessitate a staged revision procedure. In this surgical technique description, we describe a method for the management of bony deficiencies using allograft bone dowels in staged revision ACL reconstruction.

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.

The Fertilized Anterior Cruciate Ligament: An All-Inside Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Augmented With Amnion, Bone Marrow Concentrate, and a Suture Tape.

Project description:There is increasing research and interest surrounding biologics and sports medicine. Amnion has the potential to decrease adhesions and possibly protect anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) grafts along with increasing vascularization by acting as a scaffold. Bone marrow concentrate containing mesenchymal stem cells combined with Allosync Pure (Arthrex, Naples, FL) injected into ACL tunnels has the potential to increase the speed and quality of graft bone incorporation, especially when used in the setting of a soft-tissue allograft. Using suture tape augmentation (InternalBrace; Arthrex) with the reconstruction has been thought to increase the early strength of the reconstruction. In this article, we combine all 3 techniques into an all-inside ACL reconstruction that has great potential for an earlier return to play and advanced rehabilitation.

Single-Stage Anterior Cruciate Ligament Revision Reconstruction Using an Allograft Bone Dowel for a Malpositioned and Widened Femoral Tunnel.

Project description:Tunnel widening, osteolysis, and/or malposition can be a cause of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction failure and a challenging problem to treat when performing revision ACL reconstruction (RACLR). Traditionally, problematic tunnels that interfere with bony stability and incorporation of the new graft at the time of revision have been treated with staged procedures-bone grafting first, followed by a return several months later for the revision reconstruction after bony incorporation has occurred. Multiple staged procedures increase the level of risk the patient may encounter and increase cost and resource utilization. In addition, they prolong the recovery period for the patient. In recent years, several studies have evaluated the clinical outcomes of performing bone grafting of tunnels and concomitant RACLR in a single-stage setting in an effort to mitigate these issues. We describe a technique by which a malpositioned and widened femoral tunnel from a primary ACL failure is treated with bone grafting using an allograft dowel, as well as immediate RACLR using a bone-patellar tendon-bone allograft.

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.

Augmentation of Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction With Bone Marrow Concentrate and a Suture Tape.

Project description:The use of biological agents in sports medicine is increasing rapidly. The use of bone marrow concentrate has recently increased in popularity owing to the presence of mesenchymal stem cells. These stem cells combined with Allosync Pure (Arthrex, Naples, FL) could lead to better incorporation and healing. The mixture of bone marrow concentrate and Allosync Pure can be used in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, and we have developed a technique to use it in the femoral tunnel and deliver the medium arthroscopically. In this article we present a technique for using suture tape augmentation (InternalBrace; Arthrex) through the interference screw during a bone-patellar tendon-bone anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.

Anteromedial Portal Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction With Tibialis Anterior Allograft.

Project description:In an effort to better restore normal joint function and kinematics, recent emphasis has been placed on surgical techniques that provide a more anatomic reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). With femoral tunnel placement shown to play a vital role in the biomechanics, stability, and clinical outcomes after ACL reconstruction, approaches that better approximate the ACL's native femoral origin have been adopted. The independent anteromedial portal technique is thought to better position the femoral tunnel within the native ACL footprint and leave the graft more posteroinferior on the wall of the lateral femoral condyle than the more traditional transtibial approach. This article outlines the surgical technique for an anteromedial portal ACL reconstruction with a tibialis anterior allograft fixed with the Mitek Femoral and Tibial Intrafix sheath and screw system (DePuy Synthes, Raynham, MA).

Arthroscopic Delivery of Injectable Bone Graft for Staged Revision Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.

Project description:Bone defects caused by femoral and tibial tunnel enlargement can pose a significant technical challenge when planning to perform revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. A number of options have been described for managing osseous deficiencies, including the use of large autograft or allograft bone dowels to provide sufficient tunnel fill and subsequent structural support for revision surgery. These techniques can be time-consuming and technically demanding to ensure proper tunnel fill and press-fit stability of the bone graft. We describe our preferred technique for arthroscopic bone grafting using a mixture of demineralized cortical bone graft augmented with platelet-rich plasma delivered through a simple delivery system.

Single-Stage Revision Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Using Fast-Setting Bone Graft Substitutes.

Project description:Revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstructions can be performed using either a single-stage or 2-stage technique. There are several benefits to using a single-stage approach when technically possible. Although not always feasible, eliminating the necessity of a 2-stage approach for certain indications is clearly preferable because it requires fewer operative procedures, leads to a more rapid recovery, and is cost effective. Here, we describe the use of fast-setting bone graft substitutes in the setting of single-stage revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. The authors have found this technique useful in converting what would sometimes otherwise be approached using 2 stages into a single-stage procedure.

Bone-Tendon-Autograft Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction: A New Anterior Cruciate Ligament Graft Option.

Project description:The bone-tendon-bone (BTB) autograft is widely used for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. However, the primary disadvantages of this technique include postoperative kneeling pain, the risk of perioperative patellar fracture, and graft-tunnel mismatch. Therefore, a single bone plug technique for ACL reconstructions was developed to mitigate the disadvantages of the BTB technique. To differentiate this graft, we have coined the term BTA, for bone-tendon-autograft. The middle third of the patellar tendon is used with a typical width of 10 to 11 mm. A standard tibial tubercle bone plug is harvested. The length of the patellar tendon and graft construct is then measured. If the tendon is >45 mm and the construct at least 70 mm, then we proceed with the BTA technique. At the inferior pole of the patella, electrocautery is used to harvest the tendon from the patella. The advantages of this technique include faster graft harvest and preparation. Obviating the patellar bone plug harvest should eliminate the risk of perioperative patellar fracture and theoretically will mitigate donor site morbidity and kneeling pain, 2 of the most commonly cited complications of the use of BTB autografts for ACL reconstruction. In conclusion, the BTA technique is a reliable technique for ACL reconstruction.
