Outside-In Anterior Cruciate Ligament Revision With Lateral Tenodesis and High-Strength Suture Augmentation Is Easy to Perform With the Iliotibial Band.

ABSTRACT: We describe a technique for revision anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) surgery using a 15-cm strip of the iliotibial band as a graft and the gracilis tendon if available. An internal brace is added to augment the graft. The graft is passed through the femur by drilling an outside-in tunnel from the isometric point F9 of Krackow toward the ACL's footprint and is then double fixed at the tibia using an interference screw and a cortical button. This technique makes it possible to perform simultaneous ACL reconstruction and lateral tenodesis with a continuous, rigid, good-diameter graft that is pedicled to the Gerdy tubercle. Good rotational control is achieved, and all the factors that contribute to ligamentization are present.

Iliotibial Band Tenodesis With a Tenodesis Screw for Augmentation of Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.

Project description:Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with lateral extra-articular tenodesis using a strip of the iliotibial band (ITB) has been shown to increase postoperative stability of the knee. This Technical Note describes a method of ITB tenodesis in which a central slip of the ITB is passed deep to the lateral collateral ligament and then rerouted anteriorly for fixation at a location anterior and proximal to the lateral femoral epicondyle. Five whipstitches are passed through the ITB, and a second distal suture is tied around the distal end. Of the 4 suture tails, 3 are passed through a tenodesis screwdriver, and the screw is placed in the previously reamed bone socket. A closed loop is formed around the tenodesis screw by tying off the suture tails. This technique creates a sling around the lateral collateral ligament, which serves as a checkrein to internal rotation in cases in which increased stability is warranted, such as revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction in an athlete.

Lateral Extra-articular Tenodesis with Iliotibial Band Using Knotless All-Suture Anchor Femoral Fixation.

Project description:Common injuries, such as anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears, can result in both anterior and rotational instability of the knee. An arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) method has been shown to be effective in restoring anterior translational stability, but this could be followed by persistent rotational instability by means of residual pivot shifts or repeat instability episodes. Alternative techniques, such as a lateral extraarticular tenodesis (LET), has been proposed as a technique for preventing persistent rotational instability following ACLR. This article presents a case of a LET using an autologous central slip of iliotibial (IT) band with fixation to the femur using a 1.8-mm knotless all-suture anchor.

Intra-articular Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction With Extra-articular Lateral Tenodesis of the Iliotibial Band.

Project description:An increasing concern has been given to the rotation stability of the knee in the setting of an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. This growing interest stems from a better understanding of the rotational stability of the knee afforded by the identification of the anterolateral ligament. Previously, a residual abnormal pivot-shift test had been found after an anatomic single-band reconstruction of the ACL because of a lack of rotational stability, which may lead to the development of osteoarthritis. Residual instability affects function, especially in high-demand athletes who perform many flexion-rotation movements during sporting activity. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe our preferred method of intra-articular ACL reconstruction using a hamstring tendon autograft in combination with an extra-articular iliotibial band tenodesis for reinforcement of rotational stability.

Lateral Tenodesis Associated With an Intra-articular Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Without Proximal Disinsertion of Iliotibial Band.

Project description:The persistence of rotational instability after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction has been studied by several authors in the past 10 years. Although ACL lesions are currently treated arthroscopically, in the recent past, they were treated with isolated extra-articular tenodesis alone. Understanding the role and importance of anterolateral structures in the pathophysiology of rotational knee instability has increased since the rediscovery of the anterolateral ligament, and combined intra- and extra-articular reconstructions have been increasingly investigated. We sought to describe an option of lateral tenodesis associated with the ACL reconstruction through an iliotibial band tenodesis, without the need for large incisions or extra fixation devices, in a simple, fast, and reproducible manner.

Arthroscopic Hip Labral Augmentation Technique With Iliotibial Band Graft.

Project description:The importance of the acetabular labrum has been well documented for the function and overall health of the hip joint. Several biomechanical studies have shown the sealing effect of the acetabular labrum. In the past decade, labral repair procedures have gained increased attention, with the literature suggesting that the outcomes after hip arthroscopy are directly related to labral preservation. However, a primary labral repair can be challenging in cases of hypoplastic, ossified, or complex and irreparable labral tears in which there is insufficient tissue to perform a primary repair. For these cases, labral reconstruction becomes a viable option with good outcomes at short-term and midterm follow-up. A subset of these patients may show viable remnants of the labral circumferential fibers but, because of the low tissue volume, these remnant fibers are unable to maintain the suction seal. In this situation, a labral augmentation may be a viable alternative to labral reconstruction while preserving as much native labral tissue as possible. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe an arthroscopic hip labral augmentation technique using iliotibial band autograft or allograft.

Lateral Extra-articular Tenodesis: A Technique With an Iliotibial Band Strand Without Implants.

Project description:The main goal in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) should be to restore normal knee biomechanics so the chances of failure decrease. The persistence of knee instability after ACLR goes from 0.7% to 20%. Several factors have been identified and studied, but there are some selected cases in which it seems that without adding lateral extra-articular tenodesis (LET) it is not possible to control rotational instability. Data exist supporting that LET could reduce pivot shift (PS), without losing flexion/extension range of motion nor adding risk of osteoarthritis. Recently, LET has been used in addition to ACLR to add restriction to internal tibial rotation forces, and different authors have shown their techniques to achieve this task. Also, biomechanical studies have compared different techniques for LET procedures. This article aims to describe our technique performing a modified Macintosh LET as an addition to ACLR in selected patients who require extra internal tibial rotation control. This is a reproducible, easy to learn, and inexpensive procedure in terms that only a high resistance suture is needed and not any other implant, such as a stapler, anchors, or screws, reducing the risk of tunnel coalition.

Modified MacIntosh (Over-the-Top Iliotibial Band Autograft) Technique for Pediatric Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Using Knotless All-Suture Anchor Fixation.

Project description:Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is a significant cause of injury among pediatric patients with an increasing incidence. ACL insufficiency can lead to lifelong disability as further joint deterioration occurs in the form of meniscal and subsequently chondral pathology. Techniques for pediatric ACL reconstruction can broadly be classified as physeal-sparing and non-physeal-sparing. Bone age is frequently used when deciding which technique to employ. Patients are candidates for physeal-sparing, over-the-top iliotibial band reconstruction (i.e., modified MacIntosh II) when they have >4 years remaining before skeletal maturity. The modified Macintosh procedure provides both intra- and extra-articular rotational and translational constraint. This Technical Note describes the senior author's modified MacIntosh technique using knotless all-suture anchor fixation in a suture staple technique to mitigate risk of physeal damage.

Meniscal Repair With Iliotibial Band Grafting and Collagen Membrane Wrapping Augmentation.

Project description:This work contains a description of the modified Henning operation. This technique can be proven especially useful in difficult cases of damaged meniscus (complex injuries). It consists of three stages: stable suturing of the meniscus, placement of the graft from the iliotibial band on the meniscus, and covering the graft with a collagen membrane. Stitching the meniscus provides initial stabilization, the graft from the iliotibial band provides scaffolding for the reconstructed tissue, and the collagen membrane provides biological stimulation for healing.

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.

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.
