Lesser Tuberosity Avulsion Fracture Repair Using Knotless Arthroscopic Fixation.

Project description:Although some literature may suggest that acute nondisplaced lesser tuberosity fractures should undergo nonoperative management, there is a body of evidence that supports surgical stabilization of these injuries due to concern for fracture displacement, nonunion and malunion, anteromedial impingement, and possible biceps tendon subluxation or dislocation. In this Technical Note, we introduce a novel technique for arthroscopic fixation of lesser tuberosity avulsion fractures using a knotless repair. In the lateral decubitus position using standard arthroscopic portals, with the addition of the biceps accessory portal, 2 ULTRATAPE sutures are fixed to the avulsed fragment in luggage-tag fashion to create a secure, knotless fixation. These are used to mobilize and anatomically approximate the lesser tuberosity to the avulsion bed and are held in place with suture anchors placed immediately adjacent to the fracture bed. This technique provides good anatomic reduction with maximal surface area for bone-to-bone healing.

Fracture Avulsion of the Greater Tuberosity: Arthroscopic Transosseous Augmented Technique.

Project description:The fracture avulsion of the greater tuberosity (GT) represents 2% of all humerus fractures, but the true incidence is likely to be higher, being challenging the initial diagnosis on radiograph. The fracture avulsion of the GT could have different treatments: nondisplaced or minimally displaced fractures are treated conservatively, whereas for displaced or comminuted fractures surgical treatment is preferred. The most important finding of this study is the employment of an all-arthroscopic transosseous augmented technique for the treatment of a displaced humeral GT fracture avulsion. This technique shows all the advantages of the transosseous fixation and arthroscopic approach.

Arthroscopic Treatment of Greater Tuberosity Avulsion Fractures.

Project description:Isolated fractures of the greater tuberosity of the humerus are an uncommon and frequently missed diagnosis. Mistreated and unrecognized, these fractures can cause chronic pain and diminished shoulder range of motion and function. Operative treatment options include open reduction and internal fixation, as well as arthroscopic-assisted reduction and internal fixation. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe a bridging arthroscopic technique for the treatment of bony avulsions of the supraspinatus tendon.

Arthroscopic Treatment of Tibial Eminence Avulsion Fracture With Suture Tensioning Technique.

Project description:Although a tibial eminence avulsion fracture is a rare knee injury, it can result in some complications such as nonunion, limited range of motion, and anterior instability of the knee if the displaced fracture is not well reduced. Arthroscopic procedures for this fracture have been commonly performed in recent years. In patients with small fragments, a pullout operation is usually performed, but arthroscopic suture reduction is technically difficult. In addition, anterior instability of the knee may remain even if the fragment is well reduced at the time of the surgical procedure. Generally, surgeons are concerned about anatomic reduction compared with appropriate tensioning during surgery. Therefore, one of the key points to avoid remaining anterior instability of the knee is to obtain and maintain appropriate tensioning. The purpose of this article is to present an easy and safe technique for acquisition of appropriate tensioning using a tensioning device for tibial eminence avulsion fractures. Although it has limitations, this technique can facilitate the reduction of tibial eminence avulsion fractures and appropriate tensioning of the anterior cruciate ligament.

The Arthroscopic Three-Point Fixation for Anterior Cruciate Ligament Avulsion Fracture: Surgical Technique.

Project description:Several arthroscopic repairs and fixation for tibial intercondylar eminence fracture have been developed for restoring anterior cruciate ligament function. Repairing the avulsion fragment with multiple-point fixation provides some benefits over a single-point fixation. It provides multidirectional force control, especially on the posterior part of the fragment, and produces area of compression. We propose a 3-point fixation technique for providing proper reduction and compression in large fragment anterior cruciate ligament avulsion fracture. This includes using hybrid intra-articular and tunnel pull-out suture fixation to provide good posterior reduction and fixation. The number of tunnels is decreased by using a suture anchor.

Dual Posteromedial Portal Technique: Arthroscopic Loop Suspensory Fixation-Posterior Cruciate Ligament Tibial Avulsion Fracture.

Project description:Posterior cruciate ligament avulsion fracture injuries have been associated with an increased risk of meniscal tears and premature patellofemoral/medial compartment osteoarthritis. Sports-related trauma is a common cause of posterior cruciate ligament avulsion fractures. Surgical management is recommended for displaced bony avulsion of the posterior cruciate ligament to stabilize the knee and prevent knee pain, nonunion, and osteoarthritis progression. This article discusses our preferred treatment using a loop suspensory fixation device through a dual posteromedial portal technique.

Arthroscopic Fixation Technique for Avulsion Fracture of the Posterior Cruciate Ligament From the Tibia.

Project description:This study describes an arthroscopic pullout fixation technique for small and comminuted avulsion fractures of the posterior cruciate ligament from the tibia. Intra-articular surgery required 3 arthroscopic portals, the anterolateral, anteromedial, and posteromedial portals. To simplify surgery, the posterolateral portal was omitted. A 2.4-mm K-wire was inserted through the anterior incision to the center of the bone fragment. This central guidewire was subsequently overdrilled with a 4.0-mm cannulated drill. The fixation material consisted of Pass Telos artificial ligaments inserted through the fiber loop of a fixed suspensory device such as RIGIDLOOP. The leading end of the thread of the RIGIDLOOP was pulled out through the anteromedial portal. The button of RIGIDLOOP was gradually advanced through the bone tunnel. The button was pulled out and flipped over the bony fragment. The artificial ligament was pulled distally to reduce the bony fragment, and fixed onto the tibia using a ligament button while applying anterior drawer force to the proximal tibia with the knee flexed at 90°. This minimally invasive procedure was successful in treating small and comminuted avulsion fracture of the tibial attachment of the posterior cruciate ligament.

Arthroscopic Reduction and Fixation of a Lesser Trochanter Avulsion Nonunion.

Project description:Identifying and treating avulsion fractures of the pelvis and proximal femur in adolescent athletes has become increasingly more important as the rate of competitive sports participation has grown. The majority of these fractures can be treated conservatively, with most returning to full activity. Surgical treatment of these injuries has been traditionally indicated for >2 cm displacement, painful nonunion, symptomatic exostosis formation, or persistent pain and symptoms. Lesser trochanter avulsion injuries are extremely rare and literature outlining their surgical treatment lacking. We present our method of arthroscopic reduction and fixation of lesser trochanter avulsion nonunions.

Arthroscopic Parachute Technique for Split-type Greater Tuberosity Fractures.

Project description:Over the past years, several arthroscopic fixation procedures have been adopted for fractures of the greater tuberosity. Although they offer advantages over open approaches, especially for avulsion-type fixation, split-type fractures are usually treated with open reduction and internal fixation. However, suture constructs can result in a more reliable fixation system for multifragment or osteoporotic split-type fractures. Currently, the use of arthroscopic techniques in these more complex fractures is questionable due to inherent limitations of anatomic reduction and stability concerns. The authors report a technically simple and reproducible arthroscopic procedure based on anatomic, morphologic, and biomechanical concepts, which offers advantages over traditional open approaches or double-row arthroscopic techniques in the treatment of most split-type greater tuberosity fractures.

Revision Arthroscopic Greater Tuberosity Fracture Fixation and Implant Removal: An Open to Arthroscopic Approach.

Project description:Failure of a greater tuberosity fracture fixation with screws can lead to stiffness, pain, and weakness of the rotator cuff. Management of a previously performed open greater tuberosity fracture fixation with screws involves implant removal and refixation of the fragment. Doing this arthroscopically in a previously performed open surgery has its own challenges but distinct advantages. Describe herein is a technique for performing this revision surgery arthroscopically.
