Femoral 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...

متن کاملGraft fixation alternatives in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.
Reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament is a frequently performed procedure that has had outstanding results. Outcomes are dependent upon an early postoperative physical therapy program that stresses early motion. Early rehabilitation demands rigid intraoperative mechanical fixation of the graft since therapy begins before biologic incorporation of the graft in the bone tunnels. Regard...
متن کاملNovel anterior cruciate ligament graft fixation device reduces slippage
Clinically significant laxity occurs in 10%-30% of knees after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. Graft slippage and tension loss at the hamstring graft tibial fixation site during and after reconstruction surgery contribute to postoperative joint laxity and are detrimental to long-term knee stability and graft properties. Limiting graft slippage will reduce associated complications. We...
متن کاملThe EZLoc: A Simple, Rigid Femoral Fixation Device for a Soft Tissue Anterior Cruciate Ligament Graft
The EZLoc is a new femoral fixation device for soft tissue anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction that combines superior fixation properties (1427 N strength, N/mm stiffness, and high resistance to slippage) with a simple surgical technique. The EZLoc is composed of a slotted body through which the ACL graft is looped and a deployable lever arm that rigidly fixes the graft on the anter...
