RESUMO

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.

RESUMO

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

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.

RESUMO

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.

RESUMO

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.

RESUMO

The reconstruction of the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) through the tibial tunnel is the most commonly used reconstruction technique after ligament injury.However, when the graft passes through the tibial tunnel back to the medial condyle of the femur, a sharp angle is formed at the proximal end of the tibia, called the "killer turn". The existence of the "killer turn" can lead to graft wear and expansion of adjacent tibial tunnel after PCL reconstruction, affecting the stability of the posterior knee joint after operation and even leading to the failure of operation. There are several techniques, such as modifified tibial tunnel technique which the proximal exit of tibial tunnel is located in the inferior and lateral aspect of the PCL tibial anatomic insertion site, increasing the angle between the tibial tunnel and the tibial plateau, creating a tibial tunnel from the anterior lateral side of the tibia, remnant preserving as soft tissue cushion, and inlay and onlay techniques for reconstructing PCL without using tibial tunnel reconstruction, can reduce the "killer turn" effect. The above 6 techniques, theoretically, can effectively reduce or eliminate the "killer turn" effect and improve the posterior stability of the knee joint after PCL reconstruction, so as to improve the clinical efficacy of PCL reconstruction. But, the number of cases using these techniques is relatively small, and their effectiveness, reliability, and advantages and disadvantages for patients still need more clinical practice to further explore and verify.

RESUMO

It is difficult to maintain the initial posterior stability of the knee after posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. Residual posterior knee laxity after operation is a problem of PCL reconstruction. It not only results in abnormal kinematics of the knee, but also leads to secondary meniscus injury and cartilage degeneration of the affected knee, and eventually leads to knee osteoarthritis, which may especially happen with persistent and severe posterior laxity. The main reasons of residual posterior knee laxity after PCL reconstruction are: improper treatment of the posterolateral corner injury, poor positioning of the femoral tunnel, small tibial slope, and unreasonable postoperative rehabilitation. There are some concepts and technologies, such as using artificial ligaments, tibial tunnel fixation with suspensory device or suspensory device combined with interference screws, enlargement of graft diameter, all-inside reconstruction combined suture augmentation, slow and gradual postoperative rehabilitation, which can eliminate or reduce the postoperative residual laxity, in order to improve clinical outcomes after PCL reconstruction. For the patients with flat tibial slopes, double-bundle PCL reconstruction and concurrent slope-increasing tibial osteotomy is suggested. It can reduce the risk of posterior laxity and improve the stability of the knee after operation.

RESUMO

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.

RESUMO

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.

RESUMO

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.

RESUMO

Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy of reconstructing the calcaneocuboid and calcaneonavicular ligaments with the autologous semitendinosus for chronic bifurcate ligament injury.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 12 patients with chronic bifurcate ligament injury who had been treated by anatomical reconstruction with the autologous semitendinosus from March 2018 to January 2021 at Department of Foot and Ankle Surgery, The Fourth Hospital of Wuhan. There were 4 males and 8 females with an age of (41.4±9.6) years. Seven left and 5 right feet were affected; the time from injury to surgery was (9.3±4.3) months. The surgical efficacy was evaluated based on anteroposterior and lateral imaging assessments of foot weight-bearing at 6 months postoperation, comparison of the visual analogue scale (VAS) pain scores for foot weight-bearing walking and the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) midfoot scores between preoperation and the last follow-up, stress test for stability of the transverse tarsal joint, recovery of movement, and occurrence of complications.Results:All patients were followed up for (18.4±4.0) months. Their sports activities were completely resumed after postoperative (6.8±3.9) months. Primary wound healing was achieved in all patients. One patient suffered from cutaneous nerve lesion and skin numbness, the symptoms of which disappeared after conservative treatment. Double harmonic curves were observed on the anteroposterior and lateral imaging films of foot weight-bearing in all patients. The spaces in the calcaneocuboid and the calcaneonavicular joints were normal, the articular positions were matched, and the calcaneocuboid joint was stable without recurrence or worsening of displacement. The VAS decreased significantly from preoperative 6.5 (5.6, 7.0) to 0.0 (0.0, 1.0) at the last follow-up, and the AOFAS mid-foot score increased significantly from preoperative (55.6±8.8) points to (92.3±2.6) points at the last follow-up ( P<0.05). The stress test for the stability of the transverse tarsal joint showed joint stability. Conclusion:Reconstruction of the calcaneocuboid and calcaneonavicular ligaments using the autologous semitendinosus is an alternative treatment for patients with chronic bifurcate ligament injury, because it can restore the stability of the bifurcate ligament and obviously improve the foot and ankle functions with limited postoperative complications.

RESUMO

The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is one of the most crucial components to maintain knee joint stability and also the most vulnerable structure during knee-related sports activities. ACL injuries often cause knee instability, difficulty in returning to sports, and secondary degenerative knee disease. Although using autograft to reconstruct the ACL is currently a popular choice in clinical settings, it has drawbacks such as limited autograft source, donor site morbidity and delayed return to sports. Ligament advanced reinforcement system (LARS) artificial ligament possesses unique advantages such as wide availability, no donor-site morbidity, and early recovery, avoiding the problems associated with autograft reconstruction of ACL, and it has drawn increasing attention in recent years. In this paper, the authors reviewed the characteristics of LARS artificial ligament and its application in ACL reconstruction, so as to provide reference for clinical treatment of ACL injuries.

RESUMO

Objective:To compare the clinical efficacies between arthroscopic anatomic single bundle reconstruction of posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) assisted by internal tension relieving technique combined with rapid rehabilitation and anatomic single bundle reconstruction combined with conventional rehabilitation in the treatment of PCL rupture.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was used to analyze the clinical data of 88 patients with PCL rupture admitted to First Affiliated Hospital of Kunming Medical University from September 2016 to September 2020. The patients included 65 males and 23 females, aged 18-55 years [(39.3±10.8)years]. Forty-four patients underwent arthroscopic anatomic single bundle reconstruction of PCL assisted by internal tension relieving technique combined with rapid rehabilitation therapy (tension-relieving group), and 44 patients underwent arthroscopic routine anatomic single bundle reconstruction of PCL combined with conventional rehabilitation (traditional group). The two groups were compared before and at 3, 12, and 24 months after surgery regarding the following items: International Knee Literature Committee (IKDC) score, Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) score, Lysholm score, knee motion cycle (maximum stride length, minimum stride length, and stride frequency) and 6 kinematic indicators (angle of forward and back extension, angle of internal and external rotation, angle of internal and external rotation, up and down displacement, internal and external displacement, and forward and back displacement). The Marburger arthroscopy score (MAS) and Professor Ao Yingfang′s improved score by secondary arthroscopy were compared between the two groups at 12 months after surgery. The perioperative complications were observed.Results:All patients were followed for 24-36 months [(25.5±6.3)months]. In tension-relieving group and the traditional group, the values of IKDC score were (71.8±9.8)points and (68.5±6.5)points at 3 months after surgery, (87.6±6.0)points and (87.6±5.5)points at 12 months after surgery, and (95.5±3.1)points and (92.8±11.6)points at 24 months after surgery, respectively. The values were gradually increased, significantly higher than those before surgery [(48.1±16.9)points and (47.1±15.0)points] (all P<0.05). There were no significant differences between the two groups at each time point (all P>0.05). In tension-relieving group and the traditional group, the values of HSS score were (74.2±6.2)points and (68.4±9.5)points at 3 months after surgery, (91.9±5.4)points and (88.4±4.7)points at 12 months after surgery, and (97.1±2.0)points and (96.2±2.8)points at 24 months after surgery, respectively. The values of HSS score gradually increased, significantly higher than those before surgery [(57.5±17.7)points and (56.8±14.3)points] (all P<0.05). At 3 and 12 months after surgery, the values of HSS score in the tension-relieving group were significantly higher than those in the traditional group (all P<0.05), but others were not significantly different between the two groups (all P>0.05). In tension-relieving group and the traditional group, the values of Lysholm score were (74.2±14.9)points and (70.3±7.5)points at 3 months after surgery, (90.9±6.1)points and (88.7±4.7)points at 12 months after surgery, and (96.9±3.0)points and (96.3±2.8)points at 24 months after surgery, respectively. The values of Lysholm score were gradually increased, significantly higher than those before operation [(48.7±20.7)points and (48.2±19.9)points] (all P<0.05). There were no significant differences between the two groups at any time points (all P>0.05). At 3, 12, and 24 months after surgery, the motion cycle (maximum stride length, minimum stride length and stride frequency) and 6 kinematic indicators (angle of forward bending and backward extension, angle of internal and external rotation, angle of internal and external rotation, internal and external displacement, up and down displacement, and forward and backward displacement) of knee joint were significantly improved in both groups compared with those before surgery (all P<0.05). At 3, 12, and 24 months after surgery, the forward and backward displacement in the tension-relieving group was significantly decreased than that in the traditional group (all P<0.05), but others were not significantly different between the two groups (all P>0.05). The MAS was rated as excellent to good in 14 patients and fair to poor in 2, with the excellent and good rate of 87.5% (14/16) in the tension-relieving group, while the score was rated as excellent to good in 11 patients and fair to poor in 3, with the excellent and good rate of 78.6% (11/14) in the traditional group ( P>0.05). The Professor Ao Yingfang′s improved score was (10.6±1.5)points in the tension-relieving group, markedly higher than that in the traditional group [(9.6±2.3)points] ( P<0.05). No perioperative complications were observed. Conclusion:Compared with anatomic single bundle reconstruction combined with conventional rehabilitation, arthroscopic anatomic single bundle reconstruction of PCL assisted by internal tension relieving technique combined with rapid rehabilitation have higher subjective function score, better anteroposteric stability during knee movement, and better results of secondary microscopy.

RESUMO

Objective:To explore the application effect of continuous nursing based on hybrid electronic platform and fragmentation time in the out-of-hospital rehabilitation of patients with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.Methods:This was a randomized controlled study. From April 2020 to October 2021, a total of 90 patients undergoing anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction in Weifang People′s Hospital were selected as the research objects by convenience sampling. Forty patients from April to December 2020 were selected as control group, and 45 patients from January to October 2021 were selected as intervention group. The control group implemented routine discharge guidance and follow-up, while the intervention group was given continuous nursing plan based on the concept of hybrid electronic platform and fragmented time. Before operation and 1, 3 and 6 months after operation, the knee range of motion and Lysholm score of patients in the two groups were analyzed. At 1, 3 and 6 months after operation, the rehabilitation exercise compliance score, self-efficacy score and knee stability examination of the two groups were analyzed.Results:A total of 41 patients in each group completed the study. At 1 month after operation, the knee range of motion, Lysholm score, rehabilitation exercise compliance score and self-efficacy score of intervention group were (96.46 ±3.58) ° and (53.54 ± 6.57), (69.17 ± 6.27), (4.01 ± 0.38) points, respectively. In the control group, they were (89.02 ± 4.22)° and (45.02 ± 7.61), (56.78 ± 8.45), (3.61 ± 0.42) points. At 3 months after operation, they were (136.83 ± 4.30)° and (72.76 ± 4.96), (60.71 ± 5.87), (4.97 ± 0.32) points in the intervention group, (133.54 ± 3.58)° and (69.83 ± 6.65), (56.73 ± 8.57), (4.83 ± 0.45) points in the control group, respectively. At 6 months after operation, they were (139.39 ± 1.99)° and (85.61 ± 6.11), (57.71 ± 7.41), (6.58 ± 0.96) points in the intervention group, (138.29 ± 2.65)° and (81.80 ± 6.38), (47.90 ± 6.02), (6.35 ± 1.23) points in the control group, respectively. The knee range of motion, Lysholm score and rehabilitation exercise compliance score of the intervention group were better than those of the control group at 1, 3 and 6 months after operation, and the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 2.12-8.61, all P<0.05). The self-efficacy score of the intervention group was higher than that of the control group at 1 month after operation, and the difference was statistically significant ( t=4.57, P<0.05). Conclusions:The continuous nursing program based on hybrid electronic platform and fragmented time can improve the knee function of patients with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction in the early postoperative period, improve the compliance of rehabilitation exercise and the level of early self-efficacy.

RESUMO

@#Introduction: Isolated meniscal repair has been suggested as one of the contributing factors in unhealed meniscal repair. The purpose of this study was to compare the healing rate between isolated meniscal repair and meniscal repair with concomitant anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) using a standardised assessment method after propensity score matching. Materials and methods: Accuracy of the Crues' grading system for meniscal healing was validated using second-look arthroscopy as the reference standard in 17 patients. Propensity score matching (one-to-one) was performed between 26 patients who underwent isolated meniscal repair and 98 patients who underwent meniscal repair with concomitant ACLR. Patients were matched for sex, age, side and zone of the meniscal repair, and number of sutures. Healing rates at one year which were evaluated with magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were compared between the two groups. Results: The sensitivity and specificity of the Crues' grading system on multiple plane MRI for meniscal healing were 100% and 83.3%, respectively. Both the isolated meniscal repair group and the meniscal repair with concomitant ACLR group included 21 patients after propensity score matching. Baseline characteristics did not differ significantly between the two groups. The healing rate was significantly lower in the isolated meniscal repairs group (14.3%) than in the meniscal repair concomitant with ACLR group (47.6%, P=0.04). Conclusion: The healing rate for isolated meniscal repair using a standardised MRI assessment method was inferior to that of meniscal repair with concomitant ACLR after propensity score matching.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the outcome of lateral femoral notch (LFN) after early anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction and evaluate the recovery of knee joint function after the operation.@*METHODS@#The clinical data of 32 patients who underwent early ACL reconstruction from December 2015 to December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. The study included 18 males and 14 females, aged 16 to 54 years old, with an average age of (25.39±2.82) years. The body mass index (BMI) of the patients ranged from 20 to 30 kg/cm2, with an average of (26.15±3.09) kg/cm2. Among them, 6 cases were caused by traffic accidents, 19 by exercise, and 7 by the crush of heavy objects. MRI of all patients showed LFN depth was more than 1.5 mm after injury, and no intervention for LFN was performed during surgery. Preoperative and postoperative depth, area, and volume of LFN defects were observed by MRI data. International Cartilage Repair Society (ICRS) score, Lysholm score, Tegner activity levels, and knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome score (KOOS) were analyzed before and after the operation.@*RESULTS@#All patients were followed up from 2 to 6 years with an average of (3.28±1.12) years. There was no significant difference in the defect depth of LFN from (2.31±0.67) mm before the operation to (2.53±0.50) mm at follow-up (P=0.136). The defect area of LFN was decreased from (207.55±81.01)mm2 to (171.36±52.69)mm2 (P=0.038), and the defect volume of LFN was decreased from (426.32±176.54) mm3 to (340.86±151.54)mm3 (P=0.042). The ICRS score increased from (1.51±0.34) to (2.92±0.33) (P<0.001), the Lysholm score increased from (35.37±10.54) to (94.46±8.45) (P<0.001), and the Tegner motor score increased from (3.45±0.94) to (7.56±1.28), which was significantly higher than that of the preoperative data (P<0.001). The KOOS score of the final follow-up was 90.42±16.35.@*CONCLUSION@#With the increase of recovery time after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, the defect area and volume of LFN decreased gradually, but the defect depth remained unchanged. The knee joint function of the patients significantly improved. The cartilage of the LFN defect improved, but the repair effect was not good.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the feasibility of establishing an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction model using hamstring tendon autograft in cynomolgus monkeys.@*METHODS@#Twelve healthy adult male cynomolgus monkeys, weighing 8-13 kg, were randomly divided into two groups ( n=6). In the experimental group, the ACL reconstruction model of the right lower limb was prepared by using a single bundle of hamstring tendon, and the ACL of the right lower limb was only cut off in the control group. The survival of animals in the two groups was observed after operation. Before operation and at 3, 6, and 12 months after operation, the knee range of motion, thigh circumference, and calf circumference of the two groups were measured; the anterior tibial translation D-value (ATTD) was measured by Ligs joint ligament digital body examination instrument under the loads of 13-20 N, respectively. At the same time, the experimental group underwent MRI examination to observe the graft morphology and the signal/ noise quotient (SNQ) was caculated.@*RESULTS@#All animals survived to the end of the experiment. In the experimental group, the knee range of motion, thigh circumference, and calf circumference decreased first and then gradually increased after operation; the above indexes were significantly lower at 3 and 6 months after operation than before operation ( P<0.05), and no significant difference was found between pre-operation and 12 months after operation ( P>0.05). In the control group, there was no significant change in knee range of motion after operation, showing no significant difference between pre- and post-operation ( P>0.05), but the thigh circumference and calf circumference gradually significantly decreased with time ( P<0.05), and the difference was significant when compared with those before operation ( P<0.05). At 6 and 12 months after operation, the thigh circumference and calf circumference were significantly larger in the experimental group than in the control group ( P<0.05). At 3 and 6 months after operation, the knee range of motion was significantly smaller in the experimental group than in the control group ( P<0.05). Under the loading condition of 13-20 N, the ATTD in the experimental group increased first and then decreased after operation; and the ATTD significantly increased at 3, 6 months after operation when compared with the value before operation ( P<0.05). But there was no significant difference between the pre-operation and 12 months after operation ( P>0.05). There was no significant change in ATTD in the control group at 3, 6, and 12 months after operation ( P>0.05), and which were significantly higher than those before operation ( P<0.05). At each time point after operation, the ATTD was significantly smaller in the experimental group than in the control group under the same load ( P<0.05). The MRI examination of the experimental group showed that the ACL boundary gradually became clear after reconstruction and was covered by the synovial membrane. The SNQ at each time point after operation was significantly higher than that before operation, but gradually decreased with time, and the differences between time points were significant ( P<0.05).@*CONCLUSION@#The ACL reconstruction model in cynomolgus monkey with autogenous hamstring tendon transplantation was successfully established.

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the risk factors of contralateral anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury after primary ACL reconstruction.@*METHODS@#A retrospective review was conducted on the 716 patients with ACL injury who received primary ACL reconstruction surgery and met the selection criteria between January 2012 and September 2018. After a mean follow-up period of 7.6 years (range, 4-10 years), 65 patients (9.1%) experienced contralateral ACL injury (injured group) and 651 patients (90.9%) did not (uninjured group). There was no significant difference in age, body mass index, and preoperative Lachman test degree between groups ( P>0.05). However, the proportion of female in the injured group was significantly higher than that of male ( P<0.05), and the preoperative posterior tibial slope (PTS) was significantly higher than that of the uninjured group ( P<0.05). Using the outcome of contralateral ACL injury as the dependent variable, the clinical data of the patient was first used as the independent variable, and univariate COX regression was used to analyze the prognostic influencing factors. Then, the indicators with differences in univariate COX regression were used as the independent variable, and multivariate COX regression was used to analyze the independent risk factors affecting prognosis. Log-Rank (Mantel-Cox) test was used to test and analyze the occurrence time of contralateral ACL injury in patients of different genders; X-tile software was used to analyze the occurrence time of contralateral ACL injury in patients with different PTS using Log-Rank (Mantel-Cox) test and PTS cut-off values.@*RESULTS@#Univariate COX regression analysis showed that gender and PTS were influence factors for contralateral ACL injury ( P<0.05); further multivariate COX regression analysis showed that female and increased PTS were independent risk factors for contralateral ACL injury ( P<0.05). The Log-Rank (Mantel-Cox) test results showed that the contralateral ACL injury occurred in female at 8.853 (8.600, 9.106) years, which was significantly shorter than that in male [9.661 (9.503, 9.819) years] ( χ 2=20.323, P<0.001). Using X-tile software to analyze the cut-off value of PTS, it was found that the cut-off value of PTS for contralateral ACL injury was 10.92°. According to the Log-Rank (Mantel-Cox) test, it was found that the contralateral ACL injury occurred in 5.762 (4.981, 6.543) years in patients with PTS≥10.92°, which was significantly shorter than patients with PTS<10.92° [9.751 (9.650, 9.853) years]( χ 2 =302.479, P<0.001).@*CONCLUSION@#Female and PTS≥10.92° after primary ACL reconstruction are independent risk factors for contralateral ACL injury.
