Abstract Objective To study the influence of various tunnel parameters and graft inclination angle (GIA) on the clinical and radiological outcome after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) at long-term follow-up. Methods In this retrospective study, 80 patients with isolated anterior crucia...
Abstract Objective Lateral extra-articular tenodesis (LET) has been proposed to resolve rotatory instability following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). The present meta-analysis aimed to compare the clinical outcomes of ACLR and ACLR with LET using the modified Lemaire technique. Mater...
Abstract Patella baja is an infrequent knee pathology, but it is limiting due to joint stiffness and localized pain in the anterior region of the knee. It may occur after trauma, prolonged immobilization or local surgical intervention. The striking pathological finding is the shortening and increase in t...
Introducción: La artrosis de rodilla es una enfermedad osteoarticular prevalente y debilitante, especialmente en adultos mayores. Su detección temprana y la clasificación precisa son cruciales para mejorar los resultados clínicos. Objetivos: Investigar el uso de la inteligencia artificial y la visió...
Presentamos el caso de una paciente de 22 años con dolor crónico medial en la rodilla izquierda que inicialmente fue interpretado como un síndrome meniscal y, luego de diversos estudios, se diagnosticó como un sarcoma sinovial intrarticular. La resonancia magnética realizada en ...
Abstract Osteoarticular tuberculosis of the knee is an uncommon disease presentation, especially in children under 1 year old. Diagnosis based on classic methods (such as culture and anatomopathological examination) is a challenge due to the paucibacillary characteristic of the infection. Risk factors in...
Abstract Objective To evaluate the incidence of symptomatic cyclops lesions requiring surgical treatment after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction and to establish possible intraoperative risk factors related to it. Methods Three hundred and eighty-nine patients aged between 18 and 50 years...
SUMMARY: At present, the anatomical relationship the mid-portion of popliteus tendon complex (PTC) and the surrounding tissues is still unclear, especially its relationship to the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL). It affected the anatomical reconstruction of the posterolateral complex (PLC) injury. A to...
Abstract Objective To calculate the minimal important clinical difference (MICD) value for the Lysholm and International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) scores in a sample of patients submitted to anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. Methods Primary, observational, retrospective, analytical s...
Abstract The failure of ligament reconstruction has different risk factors, among which we can highlight the period before its incorporation, which is a mechanically vulnerable period. Loss of resistance over time is a characteristic of living tissues. Dissection with bone insertions of the cruciate liga...
