Arthroscopic Fixation of Knee Osteochondritis Dissecans With Interlinked Knotless All-Suture Anchors.

ABSTRACT: Unstable, displaced, and persistently symptomatic osteochondritis dissecans of the knee typically requires surgical treatment. An arthroscopic, knotless fixation method using interlinked all-suture anchors is presented, with potential advantages over other current techniques in fixation over a broad zone, treatment versatility for a wide range of fragment types, retensioning ability after stressing, decreased risk of implant-breakage complications, and avoidance of additional surgery for implant removal.

Osteochondritis Dissecans of the Knee: Arthroscopic Suture Anchor Fixation.

Project description:Osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) is a subchondral bone abnormality, in which subchondral bone and the overlying articular cartilage detach from the bony bed. Multiple techniques for OCD fixation have been described, including metallic, bioabsorbable implants and biological fixation. We describe a surgical technique for OCD lesions including bony bed preparation with curettage and microfracture, anatomic reduction, and fixation using a suture anchor to provide stability and healing of the lesion.

Internal Fixation of Osteochondritis Dissecans Using PushLock Suture Anchors.

Project description:Osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) of the knee is a subchondral bone abnormality that results in the separation of the articular cartilage and bone with subsequent progression to osteoarthritis. Unstable OCD lesions should undergo fixation to preserve the natural contour of the articular surface. Although several fixation procedures have been reported, the appropriate procedure remains unknown. Because the bony portion of the OCD lesion is usually thin, it is difficult to fix firmly with conventional methods. We began fixing OCD lesions with knotless PushLock anchors and sutures and have obtained satisfactory results. This report describes this fixation method that uses the PushLock suture anchor to treat unstable OCD lesions. This procedure also can be applied for traumatic osteochondral fractures.

All-Arthroscopic Suture Fixation of Patellar Osteochondritis Dissecans.

Project description:Osteochondritis dissecans of the knee, despite its cause, is characterized by the impairment of the subchondral bone. Failure of its spontaneous healing makes surgical fixation often necessary. The patella is less affected than other locations in the knee. Its surgical treatment remains a challenge due to the thickness of the lesion and the complex approach of the retropatellar cartilage. Arthroscopy has the theoretical advantage to avoid a possible arthrotomy; however, the retrograde application of fixation materials does not guarantee good fragment compression and may lead to cartilage penetration and damage. The purpose of this Technical Note is to present a reproducible, full arthroscopic suture fixation technique for patellar osteochondritis dissecans lesions. By using the posterior cruciate tibial drill guide, absorbable sutures are passed through the center and the peripheral borders of the lesion resulting in a "spider-parachute-type" fixation with direct fragment compression.

Arthroscopic Posterior Glenoid Fracture Fixation Using Knotless Suture Anchors.

Project description:Shoulder instability after a posterior glenoid rim fracture is rare and potentially difficult pathology to treat. Operative techniques often involve a large dissection to view the fragments resulting in local soft tissue injury. Internal fixation is often achieved with interfragmentary screws; however, this may not be possible with small or multifragmentary fracture patterns. We describe an arthroscopic technique for posterior glenoid rim fracture fixation using knotless suture anchors. These anchors can be inserted without cannulas allowing easier access to the posterior glenoid. This procedure is simple, safe, and offers good visualization of the glenohumeral joint whilst avoiding the detrimental effects of larger surgical dissection.

Arthroscopic preparation and internal fixation of an unstable osteochondritis dissecans lesion of the knee.

Project description:We present our arthroscopic technique for fixation of an unstable osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) lesion. This technique includes arthroscopic evaluation of cartilage and bone quality of the OCD fragment, hinging open the lesion, debridement of fibrous nonunion tissue, reducing the fragment, and obtaining multi-point compression screw fixation. This technique avoids the morbidity of an open arthrotomy and should be considered when treating an unstable OCD lesion with adequate bone for fixation.

Arthroscopic Fixation of Knee Femoral Condyle Osteochondritis Dissecans Fragment With Bone Marrow Aspirate Concentrate.

Project description:This article reviews a technique for arthroscopic fixation of an osteochondritis dissecans fragment with bone marrow aspirate concentrate augmentation. This technique involves safe harvest of bone marrow arthroscopically from the intercondylar notch, proper preparation and debridement of the parent bone, reduction of the progeny osteochondritis dissecans fragment, insertion of the bone marrow aspirate concentrate, and placement of multiple headless compression screws for fixation.

Recycling Suture Limbs from Knotless Suture Anchors for Arthroscopic Shoulder Stabilization.

Project description:Recurrent shoulder instability often leads to labral abnormality that requires surgical intervention that may require fixation with suture anchors. The proposed surgical technique allows the surgeon to achieve 2 points of fixation around the labrum and/or capsule with a single suture secured to the glenoid with a knotless anchor. Instead of cutting and discarding the residual suture limbs after anchor insertion, this technique uses the residual suture limbs of the knotless anchor for a second suture pass. This technique (1) creates a more cost- and time-efficient surgical procedure than using multiple single-loaded anchors or double-loaded anchors, (2) decreases the known risk of glenoid fracture from the stress riser at the implant tips of multi-anchor repairs by reducing the number of anchors required for stabilization, (3) decreases the surgical time compared with the use of double-loaded anchors through simpler suture management and less knot tying, (4) allows for the secure reapproximation of the labrum to the glenoid while offering a convenient option for capsulorrhaphy without the need to insert another anchor, and (5) yields more points of soft-tissue fixation with fewer anchors drilled into the glenoid.

Arthroscopic Fixation of Osteochondritis Dissecans of the Knee Using a Motorized Pick and Headless Compression Screws.

Project description:Osteochondritis dissecans (OCD) of the knee affects children and adolescents. The condition is characterized by sterile osteonecrosis of the subchondral bone. The cause is unknown. OCD is divided into juvenile or adult type, depending on whether the physis is open or closed at the time of diagnosis. Stable juvenile OCD lesions have substantial healing potential and are treated conservatively, with a healing potential of up to 75%. However, in unstable lesions and in all symptomatic adult OCD lesions, surgical treatment is indicated. The purpose of this article was to present our method of arthroscopic fixation of an unstable OCD in the knee, using a motorized pick to stimulate the bed of the lesion, and firm fixation with headless screws. The advantage of this method is the controlled and meticulous debridement and stimulation of the sclerotic necrosis behind the OCD fragment and the firm compression achieved with the screws, enabling an intensive and early rehabilitation.

Rotator Cuff Sparing Arthroscopic SLAP Repair With Knotless All-Suture Anchors.

Project description:Arthroscopic repair of SLAP tears is a common shoulder procedure, especially in overhead athletes. Repair techniques have evolved over the last 20 years, and the optimal technique remains elusive. In many cases, a transrotator cuff portal placed lateral to the acromion is used to access the superior glenoid. However, violating the rotator cuff is not desirable in an overhead athlete, and this approach can be associated with an increased risk of postoperative morbidity. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe our preferred surgical technique with a rotator cuff-sparing approach for arthroscopic SLAP repair with all-suture anchors.

A Staged Arthroscopic Approach to Fixation of Unstable Osteochondritis Dissecans in the Medial Femoral Condyle of the Knee Using Nonabsorbable Fixation Screws.

Project description:Osteochondritis dissecans is a focal lesion of articular cartilage that can result in fragment instability with progression of early osteoarthritis. Regarding the knee joint, salvage of an unstable lesion can be achieved using arthroscopic-assisted reduction and fixation via a 2-stage process. The first involves arthroscopic fixation of the fragment using nonbioabsorbable screws, whereas the second stage performed 12 weeks later involves removal of the screws and confirmation of successful healing of the lesion. Previous studies have demonstrated excellent outcomes in patients undergoing fixation for unstable chondral lesions not amenable to conservative treatment. A critical component of successful treatment is understanding the importance of hardware placement and technique. The purpose of the Technical Note is to describe a method performing this 2-stage arthroscopic repair of an unstable chondral lesion located on the medial femoral condyle of the knee.
