Femoral Insertion of the Posterior Cruciate Ligament: an Anatomical Study.
OBJECTIVE To identify objective parameters to guide correct location of the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) in the femur. METHODS The PCLs of 20 human cadavers were resected. The following portions were measured: distance from the most distal portion of the PCL, close to the roof, to the most anterior edge of the cartilage (AB); distance from the most proximal portion of the PCL, close to t...
متن کاملEntrapment of the proximal sciatic nerve by the hamstring tendons.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the results of operative treatment of entrapment of the sciatic nerve by tight fibrous structures associated with the hamstring tendons close to their proximal insertion. We retrospectively evaluated the results of 22 operations performed in 16 patients (6 bilateral operations), on average six years postoperatively. There was complete relief in 11 cases...
متن کاملPrinciples for using hamstring tendons for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.
The use of autogenous hamstring tendon as a graft source for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction continues to gain in popularity. The low harvest morbidity and excellent biomechanical graft properties coupled with improved fixation of soft tissue grafts are all reasons for excellent clinical outcomes of ACL reconstruction using hamstring tendons. In addition, surgeon awareness of th...
متن کاملAnatomic double-bundle posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using hamstring tendons.
Recent biomechanical studies have shown that an anatomic double-bundle posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) reconstruction is superior in restoring normal knee laxity compared with the conventional single-bundle isometric reconstruction. We describe a modification of an endoscopic PCL reconstruction technique using a double-bundle Y-shaped hamstring tendon graft. A double- or triple-bundle semiten...
متن کاملStrength and Regrowth of Hamstring Tendons After Hamstring Autograft Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
Much controversy exists regarding the potential advantages and disadvantages of various graft choices for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. Advocates of hamstring autografts often cite the limited apparent morbidity associated with semitendinosus or semitendinosus and gracilis harvest, including evidence that hamstring tendons may regenerate after harvest. In this article, we attempt t...
