Surgical Technique to Repair Musculotendinous Junction Tear of Supraspinatus Using Lateral-Row Anchors to Avoid Cut-Through.

ABSTRACT: A musculotendinous junction tear is a rare type of rotator cuff tear. There is very little literature available on musculotendinous junction tears. We propose a technique for repair of this type of tear using lateral-row anchors. In this technique, the torn tendon is freshened and sutures are passed through the medial part of the torn tendon. When it is fixed with lateral-row anchors, the tear is reduced and tendon-to-tendon healing is seen. The enthesis and the tendon length are preserved.

Arthroscopic Repair of Massive Subscapularis and Supraspinatus Tear by Double-Row Knotless Technique.

Project description:Subscapularis is the most powerful muscle in the rotator cuff. A steep learning curve and constrained space anteriorly make the repair difficult. In massive tears of the rotator cuff, repair of the subscapularis initially makes the massive supraspinatus tear repairable. We present our technique to repair subscapularis and supraspinatus tear by double-row anchors in a knotless and tension-free manner. This technique can be done in partial or full-thickness tears of the upper subscapularis.

Merged Lateral Row Modification of the Suture Bridge Technique for Simultaneous Supraspinatus and Subscapularis Repair.

Project description:Concomitate supraspinatus and subscapularis tear is not rare, and the suture bridge technique is one of the most effective methods for rotator cuff repair. However, some limitations exist in the use of such a technique for simultaneous supraspinatus and subscapularis repair. We introduce the technique of a merged lateral row for suture bridge rotator cuff repair, in which the lateral suture of the supraspinatus and subscapularis is placed in the greater tuberosity. We believe that this technique can reduce both the duration and cost of surgery and decrease soft-tissue damage. It can also allow the "comma tissue," to be simultaneously repaired.

Endoscopic repair of a gluteus medius tear at the musculotendinous junction.

Project description:Abductor tendon tears are an increasingly recognized clinical entity in patients with lateral thigh pain and weakness. These "rotator cuff tears of the hip" typically result from chronic, nontraumatic rupture of the anterior fibers of the gluteus medius. Although the abductor tendon typically tears from the osseous insertion, the case discussed here ruptured at the musculotendinous junction. This is the first report of this abductor tear subtype and its endoscopic repair.

Anatomical Double-Row Lateral Meniscus Root Repair Using Suture Anchors.

Project description:Posterior lateral meniscus root tear leads to extrusion of meniscus and increased instability of knee joint. This leads to loss of hoop stresses with increased and progressive wear of cartilage. Conservative management of root tear in the absence of osteoarthritis is ineffective, and meniscus root repair results in delayed progression of osteoarthritis and improved clinical outcomes. Lateral meniscus root, having a larger surface area, needs a stiffer and secure fixation. Our double-row meniscus root repair technique allows a larger contact area for healing, better biomechanics, low retear, and no tunnel interference with concomitant procedure.

Modified Double-Row Suture Bridge Technique With Double-Row Biceps Tenodesis for Massive Rotator Cuff Tear.

Project description:This article aims to describe a modification of the arthroscopic suture bridge technique for repair of a massive (>3 cm) rotator cuff tear. The method uses 2 medial anchors and 2 lateral anchors for rotator cuff repair, as well as double-row biceps tenodesis. This operative modification may impart better tendon healing and fewer rupture complications than the traditional double-row repair techniques.

A novel technique to avoid intraoperative giant tear slippage: the bimanual double aspiration technique.

Project description:BackgroundThe aim of this paper is to present a novel bimanual double aspiration technique to avoid intraoperative giant tear slippage. The major problem of giant retinal tears (GRT) surgery is the mobility of the posterior flap (slippage), which has been classically solved by the use of intraoperative perfluorocarbon liquid (PFCL). However, avoiding slippage of the posterior flap can be a serious technical challenge when the PFCL is removed, especially when a GRT circumference is > 180°.MethodsConventional three-port 23-gauge pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) plus chandelier was performed in three patients with giant retinal tears (GRT), using the "bimanual double aspiration technique" with non-contact wide field viewing systems. All surgeries were performed by the same surgeon.ResultsNone of the three cases presented with a retinal slippage after the bimanual aspiration technique.DiscussionGRT are full thickness retinal tears that extend circumferentially more than 90° of the retina. Management of GRT is a challenge for the vitreoretinal surgeons because the higher risk of proliferative vitreoretinopathy (PVR), re-detachment and increased risk of retinal slippage; this last can occur intraoperative or postoperative. Retinal slippage is not uncommon but far under-reported and can lead to various complications such as hypotony, retinal folds, and may exacerbate PVR formation. We performed bimanual double aspiration technique to avoid intraoperative giant tear slippage. We believe that this maneuver may avoid slippage by drying the posterior edge of the GRT. There were no complications related with the technique, and no additional equipment was needed.ConclusionIn summary, "bimanual double aspiration technique", is a simple, effective, safe and economic maneuver that could be a good option to avoid intraoperative slippage in giant retinal detachment surgery, thus achieving the stabilization of the posterior retinal flap.

Double-Row Root Repair with Bridging Centralization Using Double Nonsliding Anchors for Medial Meniscus Posterior Root Tear.

Project description:Medial meniscal posterior root tears disrupt the "hoop" function of the meniscus and may lead to knee osteoarthritis. Although root repair could be a key to osteoarthritis prevention, this surgery does not necessarily guarantee an optimal result even when combined with meniscal centralization and high tibial osteotomy. To address this issue, we made five modifications to the original combined approach, namely two anchors to fix the root, instead of one; bridging centralization instead of single centralization; release of the meniscotibial capsule vs no release; release of valgus stress before knot tying vs no release; and prohibiting postoperative cross-legged sitting and sitting on heels. The advantages of this approach over the original approach are numerous and comprise ease of performing concurrent open wedge high tibial osteotomy, shorter fixation distance, better anatomical reattachment of the meniscal root, increased bone-meniscus contact and contact pressure, and larger contact area between the capsule and tibial rim. The disadvantages of the approach are that knot-tying is cumbersome, pie-crusting of the medial collateral ligament is necessary in patients not undergoing open wedge high tibial osteotomy, and tears >3 mm from the attachment are a contraindication. We describe the steps in this modified approach in detail.

Arthroscopy Technique: Repair of Musculotendinous Junction Rotator Cuff Tears in the Shoulder Using a Dynamic Convergence Suture Bridge Technique.

Project description:Musculotendinous junction (MTJ) rotator cuff tears in the shoulder are rare injuries in which the tendon fails medial to its tuberosity attachment. There is difficulty in striking a balance between restoring the length-tension relationship of the tendon while avoiding high suture tension at the repair site. In view of the rare incidences of these tears, there is a paucity of literature on their repair techniques. We seek to share our surgical technique in addressing type A MTJ tears-where the medial muscular tear margin is short but remains adequate for suture bridge repair, whereas the lateral tendon remains on the footprint. We used mattress sutures from the medial row of anchors, threaded through the lateral tendon stump, then passed medially to engage the medial stump, before being fixed to a lateral row in a knotless fashion. Pulling on this pair of sutures will thus bring into closer apposition of both medial and lateral tear margins in a dynamic convergence pattern. Our surgical technique is a safe and effective method of repairing type A MTJ tear that confers improved biological and biomechanical advantage via the formation of a dynamic convergence suture bridging technique in addition to a double-row repair construct.

Double Row Knotted "Trident": 1 Suture Technique for Superior to Posterosuperior Small Cuff Tear.

Project description:Many arthroscopy suture techniques have been described for small rotator cuff tears, but there is no consensus. The aim of this study is to describe a double-row knot technique, which we call a "trident point," for the superior and posterosuperior small cuff tear that is easily reproducible and has a fast learning curve. This knot takes into account the excess of tendon tissue on the foot print after a cuff suture, called a "dog-ear deformity." However clinical, ultrasound, and biomechanical evaluation with follow-up remains necessary to validate the sustainability of this arthroscopy technique.

Arthroscopic Single Lateral Row Repair Technique for Small Rotator Cuff Tears.

Project description:Small symptomatic rotator cuff tears are a common problem seen by orthopaedic surgeons. Arthroscopic repair has been shown to have favorable outcomes for these lesions. There is as yet no consensus on the ideal technique for the arthroscopic repair of small rotator cuff tears. We present a single lateral row technique for the repair of such lesions, which we believe to be reproducible and effective, that achieves good approximation of the tear while reducing the chance of suture cutouts.
