Mashup Score: 59All-Soft-Tissue Medial Patellofemoral Complex Reconstruction for Revisions and Skeletally Immature Knees - 15 day(s) ago
The medial patellofemoral complex provides the primary static restraint to lateral patellar translation and is composed of the medial patellofemoral ligament and medial quadriceps tendon femoral ligament. Multiple techniques including medial patellofemoral ligament and/or medial quadriceps tendon femoral ligament reconstruction have demonstrated good results; however, modification of the femoral fixation technique is required for skeletally immature patients or revision cases in which anatomic bony fixation on the femur is not possible.

The long head of the biceps brachii is a common pain generator in the shoulder that is often managed surgically with tenotomy or tenodesis. The clinical outcomes after tenotomy and tenodesis are comparable. However, tenodesis is preferred in the active population owing to complications associated with tenotomy, including cosmetic deformity, early fatigue, and cramping. Controversy surrounds both the approach and location of tenodesis. Both open and arthroscopic techniques have been described. An arthroscopic approach is used for tenodesis within the intertubercular groove between the humeral head articular margin and superior border of the pectoralis major but has the drawback of pathologic tendon retained in the groove.

Hip arthroscopy has been shown to be an effective surgical treatment with excellent outcomes and a low percentage of complications; however, there are published data regarding iatrogenic complications with hip distraction. Hip distraction is mandatory to gain access to the central compartment and to perform a reliable labral repair or labral reconstruction. Postless hip arthroscopy is very popular nowadays, and several techniques have been published. To our knowledge, no published techniques have been described that access the hip with a postless technique in reconstructing a labrum in a complete, segmental, or augmented manner.

Mashup Score: 21Arthroscopic Anatomic Lateral Ankle Reconstruction Using Allograft: A Simplified Approach - 18 day(s) ago
Ankle instability is a common medical condition that frequently necessitates surgical intervention to achieve ankle joint stability and enhance functional outcomes after failure of conservative treatment. Many surgical techniques have been described in the literature to restore joint stability, including repair or reconstruction of the anterior talofibular ligament and the calcaneofibular ligament. In this article, we describe a simplified arthroscopic technique for anatomic lateral ankle ligament reconstruction using an extensor hallucis longus allograft and involving percutaneous creation of the calcaneal tunnel after identification of the calcaneofibular ligament distal footprint insertion relative to the lateral malleolus.

Mashup Score: 29Arthroscopic Fixation With Absorbable Suture Anchors for Pipkin Type I Femoral Head Fractures—Letter V Technique - 19 day(s) ago
Femoral head fractures are relatively uncommon high-energy injuries and usually associated with traumatic hip dislocation. Pipkin classified these fractures into 4 types according to the location of the head fragment related to the fovea and associated lesions on the femoral neck or acetabulum. Traditional open reduction and internal fixation for femoral head fracture has been proven to be effective, but it could be associated with significant complications. Arthroscopic fixation with screws is a less-invasive alternative to open reduction and internal fixation that offers several advantages.

Mashup Score: 25An Anatomic Reconstruction of Both the Anterior Cruciate Ligament and Fibular Collateral Ligament Using Autografts - 20 day(s) ago
Fibular collateral ligament (FCL) tears rarely occur in isolation and are typically injured in conjunction with another ligament, including the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). Reconstruction of both ACL and the FCL is critical to restore proper knee biomechanics and stability. This technique describes an anatomic reconstruction of both the ACL using a bone–patellar tendon–bone autograft and the FCL using a semitendinosus hamstring autograft. Previous biomechanical studies have reported on the effect of ACL and FCL tears on lateral gapping and the importance of reconstruction to restore near native stability.

There are various treatment options for medial meniscus posterior root tears, such as conservative management, meniscectomy, pull-out repair, and suture anchor repair. However, the ultimate repair technique for optimal meniscal healing remains a topic of discussion, as each technique has its own set of risks and pitfalls. This technique provides a stable and straightforward approach that minimizes fixation-related concerns. However, to determine the optimal applicability of this medial meniscus posterior root tear repair method, further research is needed to compare the biomechanical properties of this repair method with established techniques.
