Comparing outcomes of reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament rupture with fixed loop and adjustable loop
Background: Recently, the surgical methods are used in patients with anterior cruciate ligament rupture and have been associated with successful results. There are different results in the term of using of the surgical methods for anterior cruciate ligament that often is associated with some complications such as infection, static laxity, remaining the pain, need to recurrence surgery, and limi...
متن کاملDisplacement of a Fixed Versus Adjustable Suspensory Fixation Device for Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
Suspensory fi xation devices in anatomic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction commonly feature a button that rests on the cortex of the femur, and a loop that holds the graft in position until healing can occur. While this loop can be closed and fi xed in length, some contemporary designs feature a loop that is adjustable. The purpose of this study was to assess the displacement of t...
متن کاملMechanical properties of suspensory fixation devices for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: comparison of the fixed-length loop device versus the adjustable-length loop device.
BACKGROUND No definite consensus has been reached regarding the optimal technique for graft fixation to the femur in an anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the mechanical strength of two cortical suspension devices which were the TightRope (TR), a new adjustable-length loop device, and the EndoButton (EB), a well-established fixed-length loop dev...
متن کاملGraft Retensioning Technique Using an Adjustable-Loop Fixation Device in Arthroscopic Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears are an unfortunate and devastating injury in the athletic patient. Surgical reconstruction of the ACL with a taut graft construct is necessary to restore knee stability and help expedite the patient's return to an active lifestyle. Arthroscopy-assisted ACL reconstruction can be a technically involved procedure, where strong fixation limits graft motion to ...
متن کاملFemoral Aperture Fixation Improves Anterior Cruciate Ligament Graft Function When Added to Cortical Suspensory Fixation
BACKGROUND Recommendations for bone tunnel placement during anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction have become more precise. However, these recommendations differ neither with the choice of graft nor with the method of fixation used. The influence of the method of femoral fixation used on the biomechanical function of a soft tissue ACL graft remains unknown. HYPOTHESIS Our null hypot...
