ABSTRACT
Resumen: Introducción: El ligamento colateral medial (LCM) es uno de los principales estabilizadores de la rodilla, pero su lesión se presenta en conjunto con otras lesiones ligamentarias. Objetivo: Determinar la prevalencia de lesiones del LCM por resonancia magnética, sus grados y lesiones asociadas en nuestra institución. Material y métodos: Estudio retrospectivo de Enero a Abril de 2018, se evaluaron resonancias magnéticas de rodilla donde se presentó lesión del LCM para evaluar grado y tipo de lesiones asociadas. Resultados: Se incluyeron 368 estudios, prevalencia de lesión aislada del LCM de 3.07%, una grado I y una grado II, la prevalencia de lesiones de LCM concomitantes fue de 17.66%, grado I (75%), grado II (15%) y grado III (3%). Las lesiones asociadas fueron lesión del menisco medial (46.15%), lesión del ligamento cruzado anterior (30.7%), contusión ósea aislada (18.46%), lesiones condrales (37.58%), lesión de vasto medial (14.51%), lesión del retináculo medial patelar (14.51%), lesión del vasto lateral (9.23%), lesión del ligamento cruzado posterior (6.15%), lesión del menisco lateral (4.61%), tenosinovitis banda iliotibial (4.61%), fractura de avulsión de la faceta medial (3.07%), tenosinovitis de la Pes Anserinus (3.07%). Conclusión: Prevalencia de 17.66% de lesiones del LCM en nuestro hospital por resonancia magnética, predominan los dos primeros grados con un espectro amplio de lesiones asociadas de la rodilla.
Abstract: Introduction: The medial collateral ligament (MCL) is one of the main stabilizers of the knee, but its injury occurs in conjunction with other ligaments. Objective: To determine the prevalence of MCL lesions by magnetic resonance imaging, their degrees and associated lesions in our institution. Material and Methods: Retrospective study from January to April 2018 where KNEE MRIs were evaluated where the MCL lesion was presented to evaluate the degree and type of associated injuries. Results: We included 368 studies, prevalence of isolated MCL lesion of 3.07%, grade I and grade II, prevalence of concomitant MCL lesions was 17.66% grade I (75%), grade II (15%) and grade III (3%). Associated injuries were medial meniscus injury (46.15%), anterior cruciate ligament injury (30.7%), isolated bone contusion (18.46%), chodral injuries (37.58%), medial vastus injury (14.51%), patellar medial retinacular injury (14.51%), vastus lateral injury (9.23%), posterior cruciate ligament injury (6.15%), lateral meniscus injury (4.61%), iliotibial band tenosynovitis (4.61%), medial facet avulsion fracture (3.07%), Pes Anserine tenosynovitis (3.07%). Conclusion: Prevalence of 17.66% of the MCL injuries in our hospital by magnetic resonance, the first 2 degrees predominate, with a wide spectrum of associated knee injuries.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the performance of knee arthroscopy in patients with acute posteromedial corner injury and to explore the use of arthroscopy to help diagnosis. Methods From April to August 2017, the arthroscopic posteromedial corner after operation of 7 cases of acute knee joint injury patients data were retrospectively studied, treatment are in the same group. They were two man and three women, 37 ~ 59 years of old (average 49.6 years). All patients were selected for preoperative MRI to indicate medial collateral ligament damage. The VAS score was evaluated preoperative. When check-up knee flexion and 30° valgus stress test positive and 0° valgus stress test positive. Intraoperative arthroscopy was performed to confirm the injury of the Posteromedial corner. The medial meniscus was formed or stitched. The medial collateral ligament and Posteromedial corner were repaired. The knee X-ray examination were measured preoperative and in 2 months after surgery, Evaluation of the knee VAS score in 2 months after surgery. Results All patients were followed up for 2 months. The medial meniscus were easily observed and raise easily 5 cases undergoing arthroscopic surgery. All 7 patiens were showed the injury of the joint capsule ligament complex. All of the 7 cases showed the injury of the joint capsule ligament complex. Preoperative and postoperative knee medial clearance for 2 months in knee valgus stress buckling 30° [(9.2 ± 1.3) vs (3.0 ± 1.0) mm]. Preoperative and postoperative knee medial clearance for 2 months in knee valgus stress 0° [(8.8 ± 1.1) vs (2.9 ± 1.0) mm]. There were statistically significant differences (P < 0.05). After 2 months in knee valgus stress buckling is compared with the normal control group 30° [(3.0 ± 1.0) vs (2.9 ± 1.2) mm]. After 2 months in 0° knee valgus stress compared with normal control group [(2.9 ± 1.0) vs (2.8 ± 1.2) mm]. There was no statistical difference (P > 0.05). Preoperative and postoperative knee joint pain VAS score [(5.4 ± 0.3) vs (2.3 ± 1.1)]. There were statistically significant differences (P < 0.05). Conclusion Under arthroscopy detection in patients with acute Posteromedial corner injury. If it is easy to observe posterior horn of medial meniscus and the medial meniscus angle is easy to raise; The medial meniscus posterior horn joint capsule and ligament damage. They were indicated acute Posteromedial corner injury. Timely deal with medial meniscus and repair Posteromedial corner, the stability of the knee joint can be satisfactory.
