Anterior Talofibular Ligament Repair With Suture Tape Augmentation.

ABSTRACT: The most common injury sustained to the ankle ligaments is a result of inversion of the foot. This mechanism results in injury to the anterior talofibular ligament alone or in conjunction with the calcaneofibular ligament and posterior talofibular ligament. Patients experiencing recurrent ankle sprains despite nonoperative measures often require surgical management. Recent focus has been on augmentation procedures to improve the stability of a lateral ankle ligament repair by protecting it during the healing phase and supporting early mobilization. This article describes, with video illustration, anterior talofibular ligament repair with suture tape augmentation.

Arthroscopically Assisted Tape Augmentation for Anterior Talofibular Ligament Repair.

Project description:In this Technical Note, we describe arthroscopically assisted tape augmentation of a modified Broström repair for chronic lateral ankle instability. Specifically, this technique involves talar anchor placement under direct arthroscopic visualization combined with a minimally invasive approach for anatomic anterior talofibular ligament repair and FiberTape (Arthrex, Naples, FL) augmentation. The primary advantage of our technique compared with open InternalBrace (Arthrex) techniques is that only a 2-cm incision is made and no subcutaneous suture passing and knot tying are required, which bear the danger of superficial peroneal nerve damage. In addition, the risk of nonanatomic anchor placement is diminished owing to direct arthroscopic visualization and preparation of the anterior talofibular ligament remnants.

Anterolateral Ligament Repair With Suture Tape Augmentation.

Project description:Recent insights into the structure and function of the anterolateral ligament (ALL) of the knee has resulted in a recognition of its contribution in rotational control of the knee. Several ALL reconstruction techniques have been described in the literature. This article describes, with video illustration, a percutaneous repair technique using suture tape augmentation. A tendon graft is not needed. This technique allows early mobilization and encourages natural healing of the ligament by protecting the ligament during the healing phase as a secondary stabilizer.

Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction With Suture Tape Augmentation.

Project description:The advent of suture tape augmentation has led to increased use in knee, elbow, and ankle ligament repairs and reconstructions. Recent biomechanical analysis of the use of suture tape augmentation have shown superior strength characteristics compared with repair or reconstruction alone. Despite its increased use in extra-articular ligament procedures, its use as an augment to anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction has not been widely described. This article details a simple technique to incorporate the use of suture tape augmentation during concurrent anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using hamstring autograft.

Clinical outcomes of arthroscopic all-inside anterior talofibular ligament suture augmentation repair versus modified suture augmentation repair for chronic ankle instability patients.

Project description:BackgroundTo compare the clinical efficacies of arthroscopic anterior talofibular ligament suture augmentation repair and modified suture augmentation repair in patients with chronic ankle instability (CAI).MethodsFrom October 2019 to August 2020, 100 patients with CAI were enrolled after propensity score matching analysis and observed for two years. Among them, 50 underwent modified suture augmentation repair and the other 50 underwent suture augmentation repair. The clinical efficacies of CAI treatments were evaluated using the American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) clinical rating scale, visual analog scale (VAS), and anterior drawer test scores.ResultsThe postoperative AOFAS score of the modified suture augmentation repair group (83.8 ± 11.3) was significantly higher than that of the suture augmentation repair group (76.3 ± 11.3; P = 0.001). The VAS (P = 0.863) and anterior drawer test (P = 0.617) scores were not significantly different between the two treatment groups.ConclusionBoth the modified suture augmentation repair and suture augmentation repair demonstrated good clinical efficacies. The AOFAS score of the modified suture augmentation repair group was superior to that of the conventional suture augmentation repair group. Thus, modified suture augmentation repair is a feasible and practical surgical technique for CAI treatment.

Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Repair With Suture Tape Augmentation.

Project description:The medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) is the main restraining force in the first 20° of flexion against lateral patellar displacement and is disrupted after patellar subluxation or dislocation. MPFL reconstruction is frequently performed when conservative management fails and the patient has recurrent patellar dislocations. However, a variety of complications have been reported in the literature with this procedure. Internal bracing with suture tape augmentation encourages healing and allows early mobilization. This article describes, with video illustration, MPFL repair with suture tape augmentation.

Posterior Cruciate Ligament Repair With Suture Tape Augmentation.

Project description:The posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) acts as the primary restraint to posterior tibial translation of the knee. Injuries to the PCL are rare in isolation and more often are associated with multiligament injuries to the knee. Several PCL reconstruction and PCL repair techniques have been described in the literature, but no single technique has been shown to be the most superior. Internal bracing with suture tape augmentation encourages natural healing and allows early mobilization. This article describes, with video illustration, PCL repair with suture tape augmentation.

A Technique of Arthroscopic Primary Anterior Cruciate Ligament Repair With Polyester Suture Tape Augmentation.

Project description:Restoring anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) function after a rupture is critical for reducing long-term knee damage. Primary reconstruction is well established as a golden standard for treatment of complete ACL tear. Nevertheless, carefully selected patients can substantially benefit from a primary repair in comparison to reconstruction. We present a technique of arthroscopic primary ACL repair with polyester suture tape augmentation. Our method expands the spectrum of ACL repair techniques by creating a comfortable pulley-like system of tensioning the ligament and suture tape with a cortical button-suture construct.

Suture Tape Augmentation Repair of the Medial Patellofemoral Ligament.

Project description:Adolescents with osteochondral loose bodies after a first-time patellar dislocation are most commonly treated with surgical intervention. However, the ideal method of managing a concurrent medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) disruption is still unknown. Recent evidence suggests high failure rates are associated with primary MPFL repair. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe an alternative surgical technique for managing acute first-time patellar dislocations by using high-strength suture augmentation of the MPFL.

Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction With Suture Tape Augmentation: A Surgical Technique.

Project description:The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is the most common ligamentous knee injury and often is encountered in those participating in multidirectional sports. ACL reconstruction is the most commonly performed knee ligament reconstruction and employs a variety of surgical techniques but still is challenged by residual laxity and graft rupture. To help address and prevent future ACL failures, new repair and reconstruction techniques have been employed that incorporate suture augmentation (InternalBrace; Arthrex, Naples, FL), which protects the graft during healing and ligamentization. Our goal of this article is to provide a surgical technique of suture augmentation with ACL reconstruction.

Anterior Cruciate Ligament Repair Using Independent Suture Tape Reinforcement.

Project description:Recently there has been renewed interest in primary repair of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). Repair of the acute proximal ruptured ACL can be achieved with the independent suture tape reinforcement ACL repair technique. The independent suture tape reinforcement technique reinforces the ligament as a secondary stabilizer, encouraging natural healing of the ligament by protecting it during the healing phase and supporting early mobilization. The purpose of this article is to describe, with video illustration, this ACL repair technique.
