Résumé

ObjectiveTo investigate the difference in bilateral lower limb muscle synergy mode during gait in patients after unilateral anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. MethodsElectromyography from bilateral lower limb muscles during gait were collected from twelve male and eight female patients after unilateral anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction in Affiliated Hospital of Wuhan Sports University, from April to June, 2023. The data were analyzed using non-negative matrix decomposition algorithm to extract the number of muscle synergies in the affected and unaffected legs, the time to peak activation of muscle synergies and the relative weights of the muscles. ResultsSix types of muscle synergy were identified in the unaffected leg of males during gait, while five types were identified in the affected leg, lacking synergy 2 that mainly from the tibialis anterior muscle. Six types of muscle synergy were identified in both legs in females during gait. There was no significant difference in the time to peak activation of muscle synergies between both legs in males (P > 0.05). However, the time to peak activation of muscle synergies increased in females in the affected leg for synergy 3 and synergy 5 (P < 0.05). The relative weight of the rectus femoris was lower in synergy 1 in the affected leg in males (P < 0.05). For female, the relative weight of the vastus lateralis was higher and the relative weight of the biceps femoris was lower in synergy 2 in the affected leg in females (P < 0.05); while the relative weight of the rectus femoris was lower in synergy 3 (P < 0.05), and the relative weight of the biceps femoris was lower in synergy 6 (P < 0.05). ConclusionMales would freeze the muscle synergy dominating ankle dorsiflexion in affected leg to enhance ankle stability, and reduce the relative weight of rectus femoris during the loading response phase to weaken the knee landing cushioning. However, females would delay the activation of synergies dominating in loading response phase and the mid-stance phase, enhance the relative weight of vastus lateralis during the loading response phase, and reduce the relative weights of rectus femoris in the loading response phase and the relative weight of biceps femoris in the mid-stance phase, to limit knee flexion.

Résumé

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the efficacy and clinical results of total internal protection technique in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.@*METHODS@#A total of 56 patients undergoing anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction treated from January 2018 to December 2019 were selected. According to the different surgical methods, they were divided into total internal reconstruction group and standard bone tunnel group. There were 21 patients in the total internal reconstruction group, including 15 males and 6 females, aged from 20 to 48 with an average of (35.6±6.7) years old, and 35 patients in the standard tibial tunnel group, including 26 males and 9 females, aged 22 to 51 years old with an average of (33.7±9.6) years old. Preoperative examination of Lachman test was positive, magnetic resonance indicated anterior cruciate ligament rupture. There were no significant differences between the two groups in age, sex, body mass index, time from injury to ACL reconstruction, combined meniscus injury and operation method, operation time, ligament diameter, ligament length and other general information. Postoperative evaluation included operation duration, length and diameter of transplanted tendon after braid. International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) score, Lysholm score, Tegner score and perioperative complications 2 years after surgery.@*RESULTS@#Both groups were followed up, ranging from 24 to 30 months with an average of (26.9±3.4) months. Postoperative incision healing was good, and no failure or joint infection occurred at the last follow-up. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in IKDC score, Lysholm score and Tegner score before, 1 year and 2 years after surgery. However, IKDC score, Lysholm score and Tegner score at 1 year and 2 years after surgery.@*CONCLUSION@#The same postoperative function and stability of knee joint can be obtained by both the residual whole technique and the standardized reconstruction technique. In the residual whole group, only the semitendinosus muscle is taken, and the femoral thin muscle is retained, with greater tibial bone mass preserved, which is safe and effective in clinical practice.

Résumé

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 who underwent primary ACL reconstruction were retrospectively evaluated. Patients were divided into groups according to the presence or absence of symptomatic cyclops lesions, and their characteristics were compared. Patients with associated lesions that required additional surgical procedures (except anterolateral extra-articular procedures) were not included. The rate of symptomatic cyclops lesions was recorded and the following parameters were evaluated: age, gender, time from injury to surgery, graft type and diameter, femoral tunnel perforation technique, fixation type, presence of knee hyperextension, preservation of the ACL remnant, associated anterolateral extra-articular procedure, associated meniscal injury and participation in sports. Results 389 patients were evaluated and 26 (6.7%) patients developed cyclops. The patients with and without cyclops lesions did not differ in age, time from injury to surgery, graft type or diameter, surgical technique, femoral fixation method, presence of knee hyperextension, remnant preservation and associated meniscal injury. The group with cyclops lesion had a higher proportion of females (10 (38.4%) vs 68 (18.7%); OR = 2.7; p= 0.015), higher proportion of extra-articular reconstruction (18 (11.8%) vs 8 (3.4%); OR = 3.8; p= 0.001) and higher proportion of sports practice (23 (8.6%) vs 3 (2.5%); OR = 3.6; p= 0.026). Conclusion In our series, 6.7% of the patients required arthroscopic removal of cyclops lesions. Female gender, associated extra-articular reconstruction and sports practice were factors related to this lesion. Remnant preservation had no relationship with cyclops lesion formation.


Resumo Objetivo Avaliar a incidência de lesões cyclops sintomáticas que precisam de tratamento cirúrgico após a reconstrução do ligamento cruzado anterior (LCA) e estabelecer os possíveis fatores de risco intraoperatórios relacionados a elas. Métodos Trezentos e oitenta e nove pacientes com idades entre 18 e 50 anos submetidos à reconstrução primária do LCA foram avaliados de forma retrospectiva. Os pacientes foram divididos em grupos de acordo com a presença ou ausência de lesões cyclops sintomáticas e suas características foram comparadas. Não foram incluídos pacientes com lesões associadas que necessitassem de outros procedimentos cirúrgicos (à exceção de procedimentos extra-articulares ântero-laterais). A taxa de lesões cyclops sintomáticas foi registrada e os seguintes parâmetros foram avaliados: idade, sexo, tempo da lesão à cirurgia, tipo e diâmetro do enxerto, técnica de perfuração do túnel femoral, tipo de fixação, presença de hiperextensão do joelho, preservação do LCA remanescente, associação a procedimento extra-articular ântero-lateral, lesão de menisco associada e participação em esportes. Resultados Dos 389 pacientes avaliados, 26 (6,7%) desenvolveram lesão cyclops. Os pacientes com e sem lesão cyclops não diferiram quanto à idade, tempo da lesão à cirurgia, tipo ou diâmetro do enxerto, técnica cirúrgica, método de fixação femoral, presença de hiperextensão do joelho, preservação do LCA remanescente e lesão de menisco associada. O grupo com lesão cyclops apresentou mais mulheres (10 [38,4%] vs. 68 [18,7%]; razão de probabilidades [OR] = 2,7; p= 0,015), maior proporção de reconstrução extra-articular (18 [11,8%] vs. 8 [3,4 %]; OR = 3,8; p= 0,001) e maior proporção de prática esportiva (23 [8,6%] vs. 3 [2,5%]; OR = 3,6; p= 0,026). Conclusão Em nossa série, 6,7% dos pacientes necessitaram de remoção artroscópica das lesões cyclops. O sexo feminino, a reconstrução extra-articular associada e a prática esportiva foram fatores relacionados a essa lesão. A preservação do menisco remanescente não foi associada à formação de lesões cyclops.

Résumé

La ruptura de ligamento cruzado anterior (LCA) es la lesión de rodilla más común que se trata de una reconstruc- ción quirúrgica. El objetivo principal de esta revisión fue analizar la importancia de la función de los músculos isquiosurales como factor de riesgo de posibles lesiones de LCA. Se llevó a cabo siguiendo las normas Preferred Reported Item for Systematic Reviews and Meta- analyses (PRISMA). La fuente de la recopilación de datos fue la consulta directa de las bases de datos Pubmed, Sportdiscus, Web of Science y Scopus. Para la recuperación documental, se utilizaron varias palabras clave y se evaluó la calidad de los estudios que fueron seleccionados mediante la escala PEDro. Los déficits de la función muscular en los músculos isquiosurales se han relacionado con una mayor translación tibial anterior y, como consecuencia, un incremento del estrés tensional sobre el LCA entre los 10° y 45° de flexión de rodilla. Una co-activación de los músculos isquiosurales con el músculo cuádriceps femoral puede ser de gran ayuda para reducir los factores de riesgo de la lesión LCA.


SUMMARY: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture is the most common knee injury to undergo surgery in the sports setting. The main objective of this review was to analyze the importance of hamstring function as a risk factor for potential ACL injury. It was conducted following the Preferred Reported Item for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. The source of data collection was direct consultation of the Pubmed, Sportdiscus, Web of Science and Scopus databases. For documentary retrieval, several key words were used and the quality of the studies that were selected was assessed using the PEDro scale. Muscle function deficits in the hamstrings have been related to increased anterior tibial translation and, as a consequence, increased tensional stress on the ACL between 10° and 45° of knee flexion. A co-activation of the hamstrings with the quadriceps may be helpful in reducing the risk factors for ACL injury.

Résumé

Abstract Objective The purpose of this meta-analysis is to compare ligament healing on autograft and allograft in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. Methods The selection of appropriate studies was conducted according to the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines. We made a statistical analysis using a review manager. Electronic reports were searched using the PubMed, Medline, and Cochrane Library databases. The inclusion criteria were animal studies and cellular histology of both grafts as an outcome. Results The initial search revealed 412 potential articles. After duplicates were removed, 246 articles remained. Then, 14 articles were obtained and screened for relevance and eligibility. The relevant articles were searched manually, checking for eligibility and details in order not to miss included reports. Subsequently, 5 studies were included, with a total of 232 samples, reporting the biopsied results with quantitative histology of ligament healing between allograft and autograft. The biopsy samples in those studies were examined under light or electron microscope, to analyze the cellular distribution area and ligamentization stages in each group. Meta-analyses found significant difference between autograft and allograft (Heterogeneity, I2 = 89%; Mean Difference, 95% confidence interval [CI] =-34.92, -54.90, -14.93; p = 0.0006). There is also a significant difference on both graft in cellular count at over 24 weeks (Heterogeneity, I2 = 26%; Mean Difference, 95% CI = -14.59, -16.24, -12.94; p < 0.00001). Conclusion In the current meta-analysis, autograft shows a significant difference when compared to allograft, with more cellular accumulation and faster remodeling response on the ligamentization process being noticed in the former. However, a larger clinical trial will be needed to emphasize this literature's result.


Resumo Objetivo O objetivo desta metanálise comparar a cicatrização de ligamentos no autoenxerto e aloenxerto na reconstrução do ligamento cruzado anterior (LCA). Métodos A seleção dos estudos adequados foi realizada de acordo com as diretrizes de Relatórios Preferenciais para Revisões Sistemáticas e Metanálises (Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses - PRISMA). Uma análise estatística foi feita usando um gerente de revisão. Os relatórios eletrônicos foram pesquisados usando os bancos de dados PubMed, Medline e Cochrane Library. Os critérios de inclusão foram estudos em animais e a histologia celular de ambos os enxertos como desfecho. Resultado A pesquisa inicial revelou 412 artigos potenciais. Após a retirada das duplicatas, restaram 246 artigos. Então, 14 artigos foram obtidos e selecionados pela relevância e elegibilidade. Os artigos relevantes foram pesquisados manualmente, verificando sua elegibilidade e detalhando os estudos para não perder os relatórios incluídos. Posteriormente, foram incluídos 5 estudos, com um total de 232 amostras, relatando os resultados de biópsia com histologia quantitativa de cicatrização de ligamento entre aloenxerto e autoenxerto. As amostras de biópsia nesses estudos foram examinadas sob microscópio leve ou eletrônico, para análise da área de distribuição celular e estágios de ligamentização em cada grupo. As metanálises encontraram diferença significativa entre autoenxerto e aloenxerto (Heterogeneidade, I2 = 89%; Diferença média, 95% intervalo de confiança [IC] =-34,92, -54,90, -14,93; p = 0,0006). Também há uma diferença significativa nosdoisenxertosnacontagem celular de mais de 24 semanas (Heterogeneidade, I2 = 26%; Diferença média, 95% IC = -14,59 , -16,24, -12,94; p < 0,00001). Conclusão Na presente metanálise, o autoenxerto mostra resultados significativos quando comparado ao aloenxerto, com mais acúmulo celular e resposta de remode-lagem mais rápida no processo de ligamentizaçãosendoobservadonoprimeiro.No entanto, será necessário um estudo clínico maior para enfatizar o resultado desta literatura.

Résumé

Abstract Objective Commonly used methods for measuring proprioception have resulted in conflicting reports regarding knee proprioception with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture and the influence of ACL reconstruction. Methods One hundred subjects (50 patients with radiologically and arthroscopically confirmed unilateral ACL rupture and 50 normal controls) were assessed with regards to proprioception using dynamic single-leg stance postural stabilometry. Instrumented knee ligament laxity and knee outcome scores were also measured. Of the 50 patients in the ACL group, 34 underwent reconstruction and were reassessed postoperatively. Results There was a significant proprioceptive deficiency in the ACL group compared with their contralateral knee ( p < 0.001) and to the control group ( p = 0.01). There was asignificant improvement in knee proprioception following ACL reconstruction compared to preoperative findings ( p = 0.003). There was no correlation between ligament laxity measurements and outcome scores. A significant correlation was found preoperatively between outcome scores and proprioception measurements. This correlation was not found post-operatively. Pre-operative proprioception testing had asignificant correlation (r = 0.46) with post-operative proprioception ( p = 0.006). Conclusion Patients with an ACL rupture had a proprioceptive deficit which improved following ligament reconstruction. Knee outcome scores had a better correlation with proprioception than ligament laxity. Proprioception may be a superior objective measure than ligament laxity in quantifying functional knee deficits and outcomes in patients with ACL ruptures. Level of Evidence III Therapeutic Study; Prospective Longitudinal Case-Control Study.


Resumo Objetivo Os métodos comumente usados para medir a propriocepção resultaram em relatos conflitantes sobre a propriocepção do joelho com ruptura do ligamento cruzado anterior (LCA) e a influência da reconstrução do LCA. Métodos A propriocepção de 100 indivíduos (50 pacientes com ruptura unilateral do LCA confirmada à radiologia e artroscopia e 50 controles normais) foi avaliada por estabilometria postural dinâmica em apoio unipodal. A lassidão ligamentar do joelho instrumentado e suas pontuações de desfechos também foram medidas. Dos 50 pacientes do grupo LCA, 34 foram submetidos à reconstrução e reavaliados no período pós-operatório. Resultados O grupo LCA apresentou deficiência proprioceptiva significativa em relaçãoaojoelho contralateral ( p < 0,001) e ao grupo controle ( p = 0,01). A propriocepção do joelho melhorou de maneira significativa após a reconstrução do LCA em relação aos achados pré-operatórios ( p = 0,003). Não houve correlação entre as medidas de lassidão ligamentar e as pontuações de desfechos. Além disso, observamos uma correlação significativa entre as pontuações de desfechos e as medidas de propriocepção antes da cirurgia. Essa correlação não foi detectada no período pós-operatório. O teste pré-operatório de propriocepção teve correlação significativa ( r = 0,46) com a propriocepção pós-operatória ( p = 0,006). Conclusão Os pacientes com ruptura do LCA apresentaram déficit proprioceptivo que melhorou após a reconstrução ligamentar. As pontuações de desfecho do joelho tiveram melhor correlação à propriocepção do que a lassidão ligamentar. A proprio-cepção pode ser uma medida objetiva superior à lassidão ligamentar na quantificação de déficits funcionais e desfechos do joelho em pacientes com ruptura do LCA. Nível de Evidência III Estudo Terapêutico; Estudo de Caso-Controle Longitudinal Prospectivo.

Résumé

SUMMARY: The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is a ligament that mainly controls the anterior and rotational mobility of the knee joint, and its surface is covered by a synovial membrane with large number of blood vessels. In general, nutritional supply to the ligament is from many capillaries in the adjacent synovium. However, statistical studies of the capillaries distributed to the ACL are insufficient. In this study, we examined cross-sectional histological images of the femoral attachment (femoral level), middle level of the tendon (middle level), and tibial attachment (tibial level) of the ACL and statistically analyzed blood capillary distribution among the three levels. The ACLs of 10 cadavers were divided into 5 equal sections, and 4mm-thick paraffin sections were made at the femoral level, middle level, and tibial level, and then hematoxylin-eosin (HE) staining were performed. The area of each transverse section was measured using Image-J 1.51n (U. S. National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, MD, USA). Fiber bundles of the ACL were relatively small and sparse in cross-sectional area at the femoral level and became larger and denser toward the tibial level. Many blood levels. The synovium at the attachment of ACL covered the surface of the fiber bundle and also penetrated deeply between the fiber bundles. In particular, the blood capillaries were densely distributed in the synovium at the femoral attachment rather than another two levels. Indeed, the number of capillaries were also most abundant in the femoral level. The cross-sectional ACL area at the femoral level is significantly small, however, the blood capillaries were most abundant. Therefore, when the ACL is injured, its reconstruction with preservation of the femoral ligamentous remnant may be clinically useful for remodeling of the grafted tendon.


El ligamento cruzado anterior (LCA) es un ligamento que controla principalmente la movilidad anterior y rotacional de la articulación de la rodilla, y su superficie está cubierta por una membrana sinovial con gran cantidad de vasos sanguíneos. En general, el suministro de nutrientes al ligamento proviene de muchos capilares en la sinovial adyacente. Sin embargo, los estudios estadísticos de los capilares distribuidos en el LCA son insuficientes. En este estudio, examinamos imágenes histológicas trans- versales de la inserción femoral (nivel femoral), el nivel medio del tendón (nivel medio) y la inserción tibial (nivel tibial) del LCA y analizamos estadísticamente la distribución de los capilares sanguíneos entre los tres niveles. Los LCA de 10 cadáveres se dividieron en 5 secciones iguales y se realizaron cortes en parafina de 4 µm de espesor a nivel femoral, medio y tibial, y luego se realizó tinción con hematoxilina-eosina (HE). El área de cada sección transversal se midió utilizando Image-J 1.51n (Institutos Nacionales de Salud de EE. UU., Bethesda, MD, EE. UU.). Los haces de fibras del LCA eran relativamente pequeños y escasos en el área de la sección transversal a nivel femoral y se hicieron más grandes y más densos hacia el nivel tibial. La membrana sinovial en la unión del LCA cubría la superficie del haz de fibras y también penetraba profundamente entre entre los haces de fibras. En particular, los capilares sanguíneos estaban densamente distribuidos en la unión femoral de la sinovial respecto a los otros dos niveles. De hecho, el número de capilares también fue más abundante a nivel femoral. El área transversal del LCA a nivel femoral era significativamente pequeña, sin embargo, los capilares sanguíneos fueron los más abundantes. Por lo tanto, cuando hay una lesión del LCA su reconstrucción con preservación del ligamento femoral remanente puede ser clínicamente útil para remodelar el tendón injertado.

Résumé

Abstract Objective To analyze the dimensions of the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL), anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), the presence of meniscus-femoral ligaments MFLs in human knees, and the correlation with the dimensions of the knee skeleton. Methods Anatomical study on 29 specimens of human knees in which we measured the length and width of the cruciate and meniscus-femoral ligaments and the dimensions of femoral and tibia condyles and the femoral notch. The ACL length was calculated with different degrees of knee flexion. The relationship between the ligaments and bone dimensions were analyzed. Results The length of the ACL and the PCL were similar. Posterior MFL was more frequent and longer than the anterior MFL. We found the posterior MFL in the 72.41% of the knees and anterior MFL in 20.69%. The ACL presented 30% of its maximum length up to 60°, approximately half of its length between 90° and 120°, reaching its maximum length at 170°. We found a strong correlation between the length of the ACL and that of the PCL (p= 0.001). However, the lengths of the ACL and PCL were not related with the bone dimensions. Conclusion We have found no correlations between the cruciate and MFLs and the anatomical dimensions of the intercondylar notch and the proximal tibia and distal femur. The presence of the posterior MFL was more frequent and longer than that of the anterior ligament.


Resumo Objetivo Analisar as dimensões do ligamento cruzado posterior (LCP), do ligamento cruzado anterior (LCA), a presença de ligamentos meniscofemorais (LMFs) em joelhos humanos e a correlação com as dimensões do esqueleto do joelho. Métodos Estudo anatômico em 29 espécimes de joelhos humanos nos quais medimos o comprimento e a largura dos ligamentos cruzado e meniscofemoral e as dimensões dos côndilos femorais e tibiais e do entalhe femoral. O comprimento do LCA foi calculado com diferentes graus de flexão do joelho. Analisou-se a relação entre os ligamentos e as dimensões ósseas. Resultados O comprimento do LCA e do LCP foram semelhantes, LMF posterior foi mais frequente e mais longo do que o LMF anterior. Foram encontradas LMF posterior em 72,41% dos joelhos e LMF anterior em 20,69%. O LCA apresentou 30% de seu comprimento máximo até 60°, aproximadamente metade de seu comprimento entre 90° e 120°, atingindo seu comprimento máximo com flexão de 170°. Encontramos uma forte correlação entre o comprimento do LCA e do LCP (p= 0,001). No entanto, os comprimentos do LCA e do LCP não estavam relacionados com as dimensões ósseas. Conclusão Não encontramos correlações entre os ligamentos cruzado e meniscofemoral e as dimensões anatômicas do entalhe intercondilar e da tíbia proximal e do fêmur distal. A presença do LMF posterior foi mais frequente e maior que a do ligamento anterior.

Résumé

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of core stability training on dynamic balance and surface electromyography (sEMG) after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR), and to analyze the correlation between balance index and sEMG. MethodsFrom March to December, 2022, 32 patients with ACLR in Yantai Affiliated Hospital of Binzhou Medical University were randomly divided into control group (n = 16) and experimental group (n = 16). The control group accepted routine rehabilitation treatment, and the experimental group added core stability training, for six weeks. They were evaluated with American Hospital for Special Surgery Knee Score (HSS) and International Knee Documentation Committee Knee Score (IKDC), and the dynamic balance function and sEMG were measured before and after treatment, and the correlation between dynamic balance index and root mean square (RMS) of sEMG was analyzed. ResultsAfter treatment, the scores of HSS and IKDC increased significantly in both groups (|Z| > 3.526, |t| > 63.544, P < 0.001), and were better in the experimental group than in the control group (Z = -2.392, t = 2.650, P < 0.05); the length of gait line and single support line increased significantly, the medial-lateral displacement displacement decreased (|t| > 2.368, Z = -3.516, P < 0.05), and they were better in the experimental group than in the control group (|t| > 2.497, Z = -3.091, P < 0.05); the RMS of gluteus maximus and gluteus medius increased in the experimental group (t = -5.900, Z = -2.741, P < 0.01), and were better than those in the control group (t = 3.930, Z = -3.260, P < 0.01). After treatment, the RMS of gluteus maximus and gluteus medius in both groups were positively correlated with gait line length and single support line length, and were negatively correlated with medial-lateral displacement (|r| > 0.502, P < 0.01). ConclusionCore stability training could significantly improve knee joint function and dynamic balance, and enhance the activation of gluteus maximus and gluteus medius. Dynamic balance is highly correlated with sEMG.

ObjectiveTo explore the effect of hip neuromuscular training on reducing the risk of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury in female soccer players. MethodsFrom March to May, 2022, 39 female soccer players from Xi'an Physical Education University were randomly divided into control group (n = 19) and experimental group (n = 20). On the basis of daily training, the control group received sham intervention, and the experimental group received hip neuromuscular training, for six weeks. Before and after training, they were measured dynamic knee valgus (DKV) angle and assessed with Landing Error Score System (LESS); while they were also measured the maximal voluntary isometric contraction (MVIC) and root mean square (RMS) of electromyography as single leg landing of gluteus medius and gluteus maximus. ResultsAll the indexes varied little after training in the control group (|t| < 1.178, P > 0.05), while the indexes improved in the experimental group (|t| > 2.288, P < 0.05), except sagittal score of LESS; and all the indexes improved more in the experimental group than in the control group (|t| > 2.609, P < 0.05), except sagittal score of LESS and MVIC of gluteus maximus. ConclusionHip neuromuscular training can reduce the risk of ACL injury in female soccer players.

Résumé

Objective:To explore the effect of blood flow restriction training on the quadriceps femoris and on knee stability after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.Methods:Forty patients recovering from anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction were randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group, each of 20. In addition to routine rehabilitation training, the control group was given routine knee flexion and extension strength training, while the experimental group trained for an additional 20 minutes doing knee flexion and extension resistance training with the blood pressure in their groins at 70% of their individual arterial occlusive pressure. (The mean pressure was (123±11.23)mmHg). The training lasted 8 weeks, three times a week. Knee function and hamstring and quadriceps peak torque were assessed before and after the intervention using a Lysholm scale and Humac Norm isokinetic muscle strength tests.Results:There were no significant differences between the two groups in any of the measurements before the training. After the intervention, all of the measurements had improved significantly in both groups, with the average Lysholm score, H/Q% and peak torque of the experimental group significantly better than the control group′s averages.Conclusions:Blood flow restriction training can improve the effectiveness of quadriceps femoris strength, knee stability and knee function training after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.

Résumé

Objective:To explore any effect of blood flow restriction during exercise on knee proprioception and motor coordination after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction.Methods:Thirty patients recovering from ACL reconstruction were randomly divided into an experimental group and a control group, each of 15. Both groups were given routine rehabilitation training, while the experimental group was additionally provided with 45 minutes of training with blood flow restriction, 3 times a week for 8 weeks. The blood flow restriction training involved constant pressure in the groin while the patient performed knee flexion and extension resistance training, squats, alternate knee flexion and extension and ergometer cycling. Before and after the intervention, both groups′ knee function, proprioception and lower limb motor coordination were evaluated using the Lysholm knee scale, the Humac isokinetic measurement system and surface electromyography.Results:Before the experiment there were no significant differences between the two groups in any of the measurements. After the intervention, both groups′ average Lysholm score had improved significantly, and errors in reproducing a knee angle had decreased significantly. Significantly better improvement was observed in the observation group than in the control group. That group′s average coordinated contraction rate on the affected side in extension and flexion was also significantly better than the control group′s ave-rage. Indeed, there were no significant differences in the contraction rates between the healthy and affected sides.Conclusions:Training with restricted blood flow can significantly improve knee function, proprioception and motor coordination after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.

Résumé

Objective:To compare the clinical efficacy of arthroscopic all-inside technique versus full-tibial tunnel technique for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction.Methods:Literature on all-inside versus full-tibial tunnel for ACL reconstruction was retrieved from databases including China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI), Wanfang Data, Full-text Database of Chinese Medical Journals, PubMed, Web of Science, and Cochrane Library from their establishment to February 2023. Meta-analysis was performed on the included studies. Random effects model was used if heterogeneity was large, while fixed effects model was used if heterogeneity was small.Results:A total of 13 studies with 511 cases in the all-inside group and 465 cases in the full-tibial tunnel group were included in the meta-analysis, with a mean follow-up of 6-25.8 months. Meta-analysis showed that the graft diameter [ MD=0.42, 95% CI (0.11, 0.73), P=0.007] and International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) subjective score [ MD=1.11, 95% CI (0.36, 1.86), P=0.004] of the all-inside group was larger than full-tibial tunnel group, and the tibial tunnel widening of the all-inside group was less than full-tibial tunnel group [ MD=-1.70, 95% CI (-2.38, -1.01), P<0.001]. There were no significant differences in IKDC objective score [ OR=1.09, 95% CI (0.67, 1.78), P=0.730], Lysholm score [ MD=0.99, 95% CI (-0.08, 2.05), P=0.070], Tegner activity score [ MD=-0.01, 95% CI (-0.48, 0.45), P=0.950], bilateral knee anterior laxity difference [ MD=0.32, 95% CI (-0.22, 0.86), P=0.250], negative rate of pivot shift test [ OR=0.80, 95% CI (0.33, 1.91), P=0.610], graft re-rupture rate [ OR=0.76, 95% CI (0.34, 1.74), P=0.524] and return to sport rate [ OR=1.56, 95% CI (0.85, 2.86), P=0.150]. Conclusion:All-inside ACL reconstruction provides satisfactory efficacy. Compared with full-tibial tunnel technique, it has the advantages of larger graft diameter and less tibial tunnel widening, with no difference in joint function within 2 years postoperatively.

Résumé

Rupture of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is one of the most common sports injuries of the knee, which may cause limitation of motor function and degeneration of the knee, seriously affecting patients' living quality. Currently, arthroscopic ACL reconstruction (ACLR) has been identified as the gold standard for ACL rupture. In an effort to further increase surgical accuracy and decrease surgical trauma so as to promotes quick recovery, all-inside ACLR has gained increasing attention in recent years. All-inside ACLR is as effective as traditional reconstruction, but it has benefits such as the preservation of tendons, preservation of bone mass, reduction of postoperative pain, prevention of synovial fluid leakage, expansion of the tendon-bone healing area, avoidance of complications related to extrusion screws, and suitability for children and adolescents. However, applying of numerous novel techniques for all-inside ACLR increases the learning curve, operating time, and cost. Besides, improper bone tunnel fabrication and graft fixation may lead to the widening of the bone tunnel, affecting the surgical effect. Therefore, in order to provide a theoretical foundation for further promoting the clinical application of this technique, this article reviews the development, evolution, and clinical outcomes of this technique as well as its advantages and disadvantages.

Résumé

Rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is one of the most frequent forms of knee sports injuries. Nowadays, ACL reconstruction is commonly performed to help patients restore their rotational stability. However, in patients with high risk factors, the risk of ACL reconstruction failure remains high, primarily because of continuous postoperative anterolateral rotational instability. This rotational instability after ACL reconstruction has prompted researchers to focus on the anterolateral complex of the knee, such as iliotibial tract and anterolateral ligament (ALL). Among them, ALL has remained largely unappreciated for more than a century since its discovery in 1879. Even though it is still controversial, most studies in recent years have supported the anterolateral ligament as an independent ligament and a crucial anatomical component for preserving the rotational stability of the knee joint. Although augmentation of the anterolateral complex has experienced twists and turns, the anatomic ALL reconstruction, which can be performed minimally invasively and has a low risk of complications and minimal injury, is reappearing as a key strategy to address this problem. Currently, the majority of scholars believe that the need for combined ALL reconstruction during ACL reconstruction should be taken into account when there is severe rotational instability present, such as high-grade pivot shift test preoperatively, ACL revision surgery, and high requirements for rotational stability, such as age less than 25 years and the need to participate in pivoting sports. The corresponding suggested criteria are also put forth in the authoritative consensus of both domestic and foreign sources. However, the surgical indications chosen by different experts based on their individual experiences are not all consistent. Due to conflicting reports on the actual impact of ALL reconstruction on improving rotational stability and whether it will excessively restrict knee's internal rotation function, there is still much debate among researchers regarding whether ALL reconstruction and ACL reconstruction should be combined. Currently, there are two main reconstruction techniques: ALL single bundle reconstruction and Y-construct ALL double bundle reconstruction. Y-construct ALL double bundle reconstruction has a better ability to restore the original anatomy and is recommended in the consensus, but there is still a lack of randomized controlled trials between the two techniques. Therefore, the combination of ALL reconstruction at the time of ACL reconstruction has been clinically started in recent years for patients who are susceptible to failure after ACL reconstruction, which also raises many controversies.

Résumé

One case of knee infection after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction caused by the gram-positive anaerobic bacterium Finegoldia magna was reported. The patient was admitted to hospital due to fever and knee joint swelling and pain after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. Through medical history, physical examination, imaging examination and next-generation sequencing, it was confirmed that the infection was caused by Finegoldia magna. Through literature review, 37 literatures on infectious diseases caused by Finegoldia magna was retrieved and analyzed, and the identification points of anaerobic bacteria, the application of second-generation sequencing technology and the treatment status of infection after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction were reviewed. The incidence of infection after arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction is low, while anaerobic infection is even more rare and difficult to culture. The next-generation sequencing can be used to assist the diagnosis. On the basis of giving priority to the preservation of the reconstructed ligament, the combined use of arthroscopic debridement, irrigation and sensitive antibiotics is the main treatment method.

Résumé

The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is a common sports injury, which can lead to the knee unstable, make it difficult for the patient to return to sports, and cause post-traumatic osteoarthritis. The difficulty of its clinical diagnosis and treatment has always been the focus of sports medicine research. In August 2022, the American Association of Orthopaedic Surgeons updated and published "evidence-based clinical practice guideline on management of ACL injuries (2022 version)" based on the "evidence-based clinical practice guideline on management of ACL injuries (2014 version)". In the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of ACL injuries, the new guideline offers 8 recommendations and 7 options according to different evidence strength. To assist clinicians in the diagnosis and treatment of ACL injuries, this article provides an interpretation of the new guideline. In comparison to the 2014 version, the new guideline does not recommend allografts any more, shortens the time for reconstruction after ACL injury from 5 months to 3 months, adds advice that ACL reconstruction can be combined with anterolateral ligament reconstruction or lateral extra-articular tenodesis, and does not recommend ACL repair. The new guideline also shares many similarities with the domestic "clinical evidence-based guideline for the diagnosis and treatment of anterior cruciate ligament injury (2022 version)", both of which advocate history and physical examination at diagnosis, early reconstruction, the use of autologous bone-patellar tendon-bone or hamstring tendon, and either single-bundle or double-bundle ACL reconstruction. The new ACL guidelines of the American Association of Orthopaedic Surgeons lack specific recommendations on artificial ligaments, techniques for bone tunnel creation, and rehabilitation programs, all of which are of concern to domestic physicians because they are based on evidence-based research from abroad. Therefore, in order to improve the diagnosis and treatment of ACL injuries in China, clinicians should not only follow the new ACL guidelines of the American Association of Orthopaedic Surgeons, but also combine the characteristics of Chinese patients, clinical practice, and pertinent domestic guidelines when diagnosing and treating ACL injuries.
