Background
Missed radio-capitellar joint dislocation is one of the feared complications of Monteggia fractures, especially when associated with subtle fractures of the ulna bone. Many treatment strategies have been described to manage the chronic Monteggia fracture and the need for annular ligament reconstruction is not always clear. This study is an attempt to address the issue of annular ligament reconstruction in the surgical management of missed Monteggia fracture. 相似文献2.

Background
Treatment of ventral lesions to the spinal cord in the thoracic spinal canal (e.g., meningiomas) are surgical challenges. Original or modified costotransversectomy has been commonly used for extirpation of such lesions. However, these techniques incur great loss of posterior elements followed by spinal instability that requires spinal fusion. The authors have developed a new surgical technique that combined the advantages of posterolateral exposures and recapping laminoplasty (recapping T-saw laminocostotransversoplasty). The purpose of this study was to examine the safety and effectiveness of this technique for surgical excision of ventrally located meningiomas in the thoracic region. 相似文献3.

Purpose
Although isolated revision of the acetabular component has become an increasingly common option for revision hip surgery, opinions differ regarding the ideal surgical approach for reducing postoperative instability. The purpose of this study was to compare the clinical and radiographic results of isolated acetabular revision performed using a posterolateral and an anterolateral approach. 相似文献4.

Background
Anatomic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction has been presented as a means to more accurately restore the native anatomy of this ligament. This article describes a new method that uses a double bundle to perform ACL reconstruction and to evaluate the clinical outcome.Methods
Grafts are tibialis anterior tendon allograft for anteromedial bundle (AMB) and hamstring tendon autograft without detachment of the tibial insertion for posterolateral bundle (PLB). This technique creates 2 tunnels in both the femur and tibia. Femoral fixation was done by hybrid fixation using Endobutton and Rigidfix for AMB and by biointerference screw for PLB. Tibial fixations are done by Retroscrew for AMB and by native insertion of hamstring tendon for PLB. Both bundles are independently and differently tensioned. We performed ACL reconstruction in 63 patients using our new technique. Among them, 47 participated in this study. The patients were followed up with clinical examination, Lysholm scales and International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) scoring system and radiological examination with a minimum 12 month follow-up duration.Results
Significant improvement was seen on Lachman test and pivot-shift test between preoperative and last follow-up. Only one of participants had flexion contracture about 5 degrees at last follow-up. In anterior drawer test by KT-1000, authors found improvement from average 8.3 mm (range, 4 to 18 mm) preoperatively to average 1.4 mm (range, 0 to 6 mm) at last follow-up. Average Lysholm score of all patients was 72.7 ± 8.8 (range, 54 to 79) preoperatively and significant improvement was seen, score was 92.2 ± 5.3 (range, 74 to 97; p < 0.05) at last follow-up. Also IKDC score was normal in 35 cases, near normal in 11 cases, abnormal in 1 case at last follow-up.Conclusions
Our new double bundle ACL reconstruction technique used hybrid fixation and Retroscrew had favorable outcomes. 相似文献5.

Background
Lung hydatid disease is an endemic problem in Mediterranean countries, and the ideal surgical management for it is still debated. In this prospective study, we aimed to evaluate the feasibility and safety of thoracoscopy in patients with lung hydatid disease. We studied the advantages of thoracoscopic procedure over posterolateral thoracotomy. 相似文献6.

Background Context
The importance of surgeon volume as a quality measure has been defined for a number of surgical specialties. Meaningful procedural volume benchmarks have not been established, however, particularly with respect to lumbar spine surgery.Purpose
We aimed to establish surgeon volume benchmarks for the performance of four common lumbar spine surgical procedures (discectomy, decompression, lumbar interbody fusion, and lumbar posterolateral fusion).Study Design
A retrospective review of data in the Florida Statewide Inpatient Dataset (2011–2014) was carried out.Patient Sample
Patients who underwent one of the four lumbar spine surgical procedures under study comprised the study sample.Outcome Measure
The development of a complication or hospital readmission within 90 days of the surgical procedure was the surgical outcome.Methods
For each specific procedure, individual surgeon volume was separately plotted against the number of complications and readmissions in a spline analysis that adjusted for co-variates. Spline cut-points were used to create a categorical variable of procedure volume for each individual procedure. Log-binomial regression analysis was then separately performed using the categorical volume-outcome metric for each individual procedure and for the outcomes of 90-day complications and 90-day readmissions.Results
In all, 187,185 spine surgical procedures met inclusion criteria, performed by 5,514 different surgeons at 178 hospitals. Spline analysis determined that the procedure volume cut-point was 25 for decompressions, 40 for discectomy, 43 for interbody fusion, and 35 for posterolateral fusions. For surgeons who failed to meet the volume metric, there was a 63% increase in the risk of complications following decompressions, a 56% increase in the risk of complications following discectomy, a 15% increase in the risk of complications following lumbar interbody fusions, and a 47% increase in the risk of complications following posterolateral fusions. Findings were similar for readmission measures.Conclusions
The results of this work allow us to identify meaningful volume-based benchmarks for the performance of common lumbar spine surgical procedures including decompression, discectomy, and fusion-based procedures. Based on our determinations, readily achievable goals for individual surgeons would approximate an average of four discectomy and lumbar interbody fusion procedures per month, three posterolateral lumbar fusions per month, and at least one decompression surgery every other week. 相似文献7.

Background
Patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are used to evaluate the outcome of total hip arthroplasty (THA). We determined the effect of surgical approach on PROMs after primary THA.Methods
All primary THAs, with registered preoperative and 3 months postoperative PROMs were selected from the Dutch Arthroplasty Register. Based on surgical approach, 4 groups were discerned: (direct) anterior, anterolateral, direct lateral, and posterolateral approaches. The following PROMs were recorded: Hip disability and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score Physical function Short form (HOOS-PS); Oxford Hip Score; EQ-5D index score; EQ-5D thermometer; and Numeric Rating Scale measuring pain, both active and in rest. The difference between preoperative and postoperative scores was calculated (delta-PROM) and used as primary outcome measure. Multivariable linear regression analysis was performed for comparisons. Cohen's d was calculated as measure of effect size.Results
All examined 4 approaches resulted in a significant increase of PROMs after primary THA in the Netherlands (n = 12,274). The anterior and posterolateral approaches were associated with significantly more improvement in HOOS-PS scores compared with the anterolateral and direct lateral approaches. Furthermore, the posterolateral and anterior approaches showed greater improvement on Numeric Rating Scale pain scores compared with the anterolateral approach. No relevant differences in delta-PROM were seen between the anterior and posterolateral surgical approaches.Conclusion
Anterior and posterolateral surgical approaches showed more improvement in self-reported physical functioning (HOOS-PS) compared with anterolateral and direct lateral approaches in patients receiving a primary THA. However, clinical differences were only small. 相似文献8.

Purpose
Failure of a reconstructed anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) has significant morbidity in the paediatric and adolescent patient population. Untreated concomitant posterolateral corner (PLC) injury is an identified cause of failed ACL reconstruction; however, the injury pattern has yet to be defined for the paediatric population.Methods
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies of the knee performed between 1 January 2009 and 1 January 2013 were retrospectively reviewed. Imaging reports indicating an intra-substance injury of the ACL were reviewed, and all associated injured structures were recorded. Injury patterns were categorised by age, gender, physis status and associated injuries. Logistic regression and chi-square analyses compared ACL disruptions with and without concomitant PLC injuries.Results
One hundred and twenty-eight patients (74 boys and 54 girls, average age 15.27 years) sustained an ACL disruption. Concomitant injury to the PLC was seen in 13.3 % of injuries. Associated PLC injuries were significantly associated with lateral meniscus injury and Segond fractures. Lateral meniscus injury was predictive of PLC injury (p?=?0.05) upon logistic regression analysis.Conclusion
Concomitant PLC injuries were found in 13.3 % of all ACL disruptions on MRI analysis. Lateral meniscus injuries associated with an ACL disruption were predictive of concomitant PLC injury. Combined injury of the ACL and lateral meniscus should prompt close scrutiny to PLC structures.9.

Background:
Double bundle anterior cruciate ligament (DBACL) reconstruction is said to reproduce the native anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) anatomy better than single bundle anterior cruciate ligament, whether it leads to better functional results is debatable. Different fixation methods have been used for DBACL reconstruction, the most common being aperture fixation on tibial side and cortical suspensory fixation on the femoral side. We present the results of DBACL reconstruction technique, wherein on the femoral side anteromedial (AM) bundle is fixed with a crosspin and aperture fixation was done for the posterolateral (PL) bundle.Materials and Methods:
Out of 157 isolated ACL injury patients who underwent ACL reconstruction, 100 were included in the prospective study. Arthroscopic DBACL reconstruction was done using ipsilateral hamstring autograft. AM bundle was fixed using Transfix (Arthrex, Naples, FL, USA) on the femoral side and bio interference screw (Arthrex, Naples, FL, USA) on the tibial side. PL bundle was fixed on femoral as well as on tibial side with a biointerference screw. Patients were evaluated using KT-1000 arthrometer, Lysholm score, International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) Score and isokinetic muscle strength testing.Methods:

AM bundle was fixed using Transfix (Arthrex, Naples, FL, USA) on the femoral side and bio interference screw (Arthrex, Naples, FL, USA) on the tibial side.

Patients were evaluated using KT-1000 arthrometer, Lysholm score, International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) Score and isokinetic muscle strength testing.Results:
The KT-1000 results were evaluated using paired t test with the P value set at 0.001. At the end of 1 year, the anteroposterior side to side translation difference (KT-1000 manual maximum) showed mean improvement from 5.1 mm ± 1.5 preoperatively to 1.6 mm ± 1.2 (P < 0.001) postoperatively. The Lysholm score too showed statistically significant (P < 0.001) improvement from 52.4 ± 15.2 (range: 32-76) preoperatively to a postoperative score of 89.1 ± 3.2 (range 67-100). According to the IKDC score 90% patients had normal results (Category A and B). The AM femoral tunnel initial posterior blow out was seen in 4 patients and confluence in the intraarticular part of the femoral tunnels was seen in 6 patients intraoperatively. The quadriceps strength on isokinetic testing had an average deficit of 10.3% while the hamstrings had a 5.2% deficit at the end of 1 year as compared with the normal side.Conclusion:
Our study revealed that the DBACL reconstruction using crosspin fixation for AM bundle and aperture fixation for PL bundle on the femoral side resulted in significant improvement in KT 1000, Lysholm and IKDC scores. 相似文献10.

Purpose
Posterior ligamentous complex (PLC) components have an orderly sequence of rupture. However, it is still unclear how many structures have to be damaged to consider it disrupted. We aim to establish imaging criteria, which can define the complex as competent or incompetent.Methods
Prospective study of 74 consecutive vertebral acute traumatic fractures, using X-rays and MRI scan (FS-T2-w/STIR sequences). We analyzed the association between MRI signal (intact, edema, disruption) of each PLC component—facet capsules (FC), interspinous ligaments (ISL), supraspinous ligaments (SSL) and ligamentum flavum (LF)—and the variables: AO/TLICS classification, treatment, surgical findings, interspinous diastasis index (IDI), local kyphosis (LVK) and ISS (TLICS) score. χ2 test and U Mann–Whitney were used for statistics.Results
MR images of ISL edema correlated surgically with intact ligaments or laxity, and were associated with 87.5 % of facet distraction, LVK: 11.6º, IDI: 1.2. Images of ISL, SSL or LF disruptions showed in all cases ruptures under surgical examination. Images of SSL disruption associated with LVK: 14.5º, IDI: 1.8. Images of ISL disruption associated with SSL/LF rupture, LVK: 16º, and IDI: 2; while LF disruption showed LVK: 18º, IDI: 1.9.When comparing “competent PLC” (images of facet distraction and ISL edema) with “incompetent PLC” (images of SSL disruption ± ISL or LF disruption) the latest showed more severe scores in every variable (p < 0.001), except neurologic status.Conclusion
Following PLC rupture sequence, ISL edema with facet distraction seems not to be enough to define a posterior tension band incompetence. It is the further step of SSL rupture what gives the key to PLC incompetence. 相似文献11.

Background
Surgical techniques of ACL reconstruction (ACLR) have evolved over the past three decades along with debate regarding timing of reconstruction. It was a widespread belief that the timing of surgery was an important factor in determining the resulting stiffness after ACLR. Delayed rather than early reconstruction of the ACL is the current recommended treatment since it is thought to give a better functional outcome. However, there is no consensus in the literature regarding the optimal time of surgical intervention. The purpose of this study was to compare the range of motion and functional outcome in patients who underwent ACLR early with those that were delayed.Materials and Methods
The patients were randomized into two groups; patients who underwent the procedure within three weeks were kept in Group I (Early) and those patients who were reconstructed after six weeks were categorized as Group II (Delayed). Hamstring grafts were used and a standard protocol of surgery and physiotherapy was followed. The range of motion, IKDC and Tegner scores were compared.Results
A hundred and four patients underwent ACLR; fifty-three patients were grouped as Group I (Early) and fifty one as Group II (Delayed). The range of motion of both groups was comparable. The IKDC and Tegner scores were also comparable for early (Group I) ACLR and the patients who had their ACL reconstructed after a delay of at least 6 weeks (Group II).Conclusion
There are no clinical differences in terms of range of motion and functional results between early and delayed ACLR. 相似文献12.

Purpose
We conducted this study to correlate the short term clinical outcomes after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction with patients' age, time since injury and associated meniscal injury.Methods
A total of 43 patients who underwent ACL reconstruction between October 2013 and February 2015 were taken for the study. Preoperative demographic data, clinical scores (Lysholm, IKDC) were recorded for each patient. Time since injury and associated meniscal injuries were recorded. Then a standardized surgical technique was used for each graft type. They were followed up for 6 months and the Lysholm and IKDC scores were evaluated.Results
Only 33 patients completed 6 months follow-up at the end of this study. Twenty-four patients (72.7%) were in the age group of 18–30 years. Nine patients belonged to age group 30–50 years (27.3%). The p value for differences in Lysholm scores between the two age groups was not significant (0.339). The p value for differences in IKDC scores between the two age groups was not significant either (0.138). The mean Lysholm scores were 93.86 ± 3.024 for the group who presented <6 months post-injury, 92 ± 5.494 for the group who presented between 6 months and 1 year and 94.64 ± 3.104 for the group who presented after 1 year; whereas the mean IKDC scores were 92.43 ± 0.793, 90.64 ± 6.598 and 90.89 ± 2.113 respectively. The correlation of outcomes with meniscal injury had no statistical significance.Conclusion
Based on our study, we conclude that age, time since injury and associated meniscal injury does not affect short term functional outcome in ACL reconstruction. 相似文献13.

Background:
There are few posterolateral approaches that do not require the common peroneal nerve (CPN) dissection. With the nerve exposure, it would pose a great challenge and sometimes iatrogenic damage over the surgical course. The purpose was to present a case series of patients with posterolateral tibial plateau fractures treated by direct exposure and plate fixation through a modified posterolateral approach without exposing the common peroneal nerve (CPN).Materials and Methods:
9 consecutive cases of isolated posterior fractures of the posterolateral tibial plateau were operated by open reduction and plate fixation through the modified posterolateral approach without exposing the CPN between June 2009 and January 2012. Articular reduction quality was assessment according to the immediate postoperative radiographs. At 24 month followup, all patients had radiographs and were asked to complete a validated outcome measure and the modified Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) Knee Scale.Results:
All patients were followedup, with a mean period of 29 months (range 25–40 months). Bony union was achieved in all patients. In six cases, the reduction was graded as best and in three cases the reduction was graded as middle according to the immediate postoperative radiographs by the rank order system. The average range of motion arc was 127° (range 110°–134°) and the mean postoperative HSS was 93 (range 85–97) at 24 months followup. None of the patients sustained neurovascular complication.Conclusions:
The modified posterolateral approach through a long skin incision without exposing the CPN could help to expand the surgical options for an optimal treatment of this kind of fracture, and plating of posterolateral tibial plateau fractures would result in restoration and maintenance of alignment. This approach demands precise knowledge of the anatomic structures of this region. 相似文献14.
BackgroundAn anatomical double bundle ACL reconstruction replicates the anatomy of native ACL as the tunnels are made to simulate the anatomy of ACL with AM and PL bundle foot prints. The goal of anatomic ACL reconstruction is to tailor the procedure to each patient’s anatomic, biomechanical and functional demands to provide the best possible outcome. The shift from single bundle to double bundle technique and also from transtibial to transportal method has been to provide near anatomic tunnel positions.PurposeTo determine the position of femoral and tibial tunnels prepared by double bundle ACL reconstruction using three dimensional Computed tomography.Study designA prospective case series involving forty patients with ACL tear who underwent transportal double bundle ACL reconstruction.MethodComputed tomography scans were performed on forty knees that had undergone double bundle anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. Three-dimensional computed tomography reconstruction models of the knee joint were prepared and aligned into an anatomical coordinate axis system for femur and tibia respectively. Tibial tunnel centres were measured in the anterior-to-posterior and medial-to-lateral directions on the top view of tibial plateau and femoral tunnel centres were measured in posterior to anterior and proximal-to-distal directions with anatomic coordinate axis method. These measurements were compared with published reference data.ResultsAnalysing the Femoral tunnel, the mean posterior-to-anterior distances for anteromedial and posterolateral tunnel centre position were 46.8% ± 7.4% and 34.5% ± 5.0% of the posterior-to-anterior height of the medial wall and the mean proximal-to-distal distances for the anteromedial and posterolateral tunnel centre position were 24.1% ± 7.1% and 61.6% ± 4.8%. On the tibial side, the mean anterior-to-posterior distances for the anteromedial and posterolateral tunnel centre position were 28.8% ± 4.3% and 46.2% ± 3.6% of the anterior-to posterior depth of the tibia measured from the anterior border and the mean medial-to-lateral distances for the anteromedial and posterolateral tunnel centre position were 46.5% ± 2.9% and 50.6% ± 2.8% of the medial-to-lateral width of the tibia measured from the medial border. There is high Inter-observer and Intra-observer reliability (Intra-class correlation coefficient).Discussion and conclusionFemoral AM tunnel was positioned significantly anterior and nearly proximal whereas the femoral PL tunnel was positioned significantly anterior and nearly distal with respect to the anatomic site. Location of tibial AM tunnel was nearly posterior and nearly medial whereas the location of tibial PL tunnel was very similar to the anatomic site Evaluation of location of tunnels through the anatomic co-ordinate axes method on 3D CT models is a reliable and reproducible method. This method would help the surgeons to aim for anatomic placement of the tunnels. It also shows that there is scope for improvement of femoral tunnel in double bundle ACL reconstruction through transportal technique. 相似文献

Background:
The clinical relationship between medial meniscus tear and anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture has been well documented. However, the mechanism of this clinical phenomenon is not exactly explained. Our aim is to investigate the biomechanical impact of partial and complete ACL rupture on different parts of medial meniscus.Materials and Methods:
Twelve fresh human cadaveric knee specimens were divided into four groups: ACL intact (ACL-I), anteromedial bundle transection (AMB-T), posterolateral bundle transection (PLB-T), and ACL complete transection (ACL-T) group. Strain on the anterior horn, body part, and posterior horn of medial meniscus were measured under 200 N axial compressive tibial load at 0°, 30°, 60°, and 90° of knee flexion, respectively.Results:
Compared with the control group (ACL-I), the ACL-T group had a higher strain on whole medial meniscus at 0°, 60°, and 90° of flexion. But at 30°, it had a higher strain on posterior horn of meniscus only. As to PLB-T group, strain on whole meniscus increased at full extension, while strain increased on posterior horn at 30° and on body of meniscus at 60°. However, AMB-T only brought about higher strain at 60° of flexion on body and posterior horn of meniscus.Conclusions:
Similar to complete rupture, partial rupture of ACL can also trigger strain concentration on medial meniscus, especially posterior horn, which may be a more critical reason for meniscus injury associated with chronic ACL deficiency. 相似文献16.

Introduction
During post-operative rehabilitation for posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) reconstruction, flexion is limited to 90° for the first 6 weeks, and hamstring strengthening is initiated at 3 months because of static stability. The posterolateral corner sling (PLCS) procedure is frequently performed with PCL reconstruction to help alleviate posterolateral rotator instability, and it is possible, during this procedure, to damage the dynamic motion and to over-constrain the knee. 相似文献17.

Background
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) surgical reconstruction is performed with the use of an autogenic, allogenic or synthetic graft. The document issued by the Italian National Guidelines System (SNLG, Sistema Nazionale Linee Guida) at the National Institute of Health aims to guide orthopaedic surgeons in selecting the optimal graft for ACL reconstruction using an evidence-based approach. 相似文献18.
Outcomes after posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) reconstructive surgery have historically been inferior to outcomes after reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). As such, some surgeons may be reluctant to recommend reconstruction of the PCL. However, recent technologic advances have substantially improved PCL reconstructive surgical outcomes. These advances include better understanding of PCL diagnosis and surgical indications; recognition of the need for repair or reconstruction of associated injuries, especially injuries to the posterolateral and posteromedial corners of the knee; PCL-specific surgical instruments including mechanical tensioning devices to restore anatomic tibial step-off; improved graft fixation techniques including primary and backup methods of fixation; use of strong graft material including advances in the procurement, processing, and usage of allograft tissue; improved surgical techniques; and advances in the understanding of knee ligament structure and biomechanics, resulting in more accurate surgical tunnel placement, achieving anatomic graft insertion sites while minimizing graft bending. Today, PCL reconstructive surgery often results in excellent function with a return to the patient’s preinjury level of activity. In contrast to accelerated rehabilitation after ACL reconstructive surgery, slow and deliberate postoperative rehabilitation is recommended to allow early healing to occur after PCL reconstructive surgery. 相似文献
