Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction: A Practical Surgical Guide
This practical and instructional guidebook, written by international experts in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction, covers all challenging aspects of ACL rupture in the acute and chronic setting. It covers the latest, spectacular anatomical findings, treatment of partial ACL tears, various techniques for single- and double-bundle ACL reconstruction, and complex ACL revision surgery. Important surgical steps are clearly described with the help of instructive, high-quality photographs. Important tips, tricks, and pitfalls are highlighted and intra- and postoperative complications, rehabilitation, and prevention of re-rupture are discussed. All authors are prominent and experienced ACL surgeons
in-vitro analysis of the contribution of medial patello-femoral ligament in patello- femoral joint kinematics and stability
Good patient satisfaction with low complications rate after trochleoplasty in patellofemoral instability
Purpose: Trochlear dysplasia has been recognized as the most common factor in patients with patellofemoral dislocation. Trochleoplasty is a surgical procedure whose primary goal is to modify the femoral trochlea's abnormal shape in patients suffering from patellar instability, requiring good surgical skills, correct indication, and accurate patient information.
Methods: The review aims to describe preoperative planning, patient selection, most common surgical techniques, and clinical results of trochleoplasty in patellar instability in a reproducible manner.
Results: Trochleoplasty can be considered a general term to describe a group of different procedures that reduce trochlear dysplasia's impact on patellar instability, aiming to restore patella-trochlear congruency, remove the supratrochlear bump, allowed a new groove positioning and are generally associated with other procedures. Recent studies showed satisfactory long-term results with the restoration of patellar stability, improving radiological findings of patellofemoral instability.
Conclusion: Trochleoplasty is a technically demanding technique, requiring careful patient selection, detailed knowledge, and surgical skills to avoid severe complications. Good patient satisfaction with a low risk of significant complications such as patellofemoral arthritis has been revealed. In conclusion, trochleoplasty should be systematically included in the treatment of patellar dislocation, if indicated
