Current Best Practice for Management of Medial Collateral Ligament Injury
Medical collateral ligament injuries are among the most common knee injuries for the athletic population. Immobilization once was the accepted course of treatment for MCL injuries but research has demonstrated the ineffectiveness of this approach. The knee is second only to the ankle in frequency of injuries in competitive sports and often more severe. Ruptures to the anterior cruciate ligament...
متن کاملRepair of medial collateral ligament injury during total knee arthoplasty.
Intraoperative midsubstance lacerations of the medial collateral ligament (MCL) must be addressed during surgery, and failure to obtain coronal plane stability could affect patient outcomes and satisfaction. This article reports our results of a series of patients who sustained an intraoperative MCL injury during a primary total knee arthroplasty and were treated by direct primary repair and no...
متن کاملTwo Genetic Loci associated with Medial Collateral Ligament Injury.
Medial collateral ligament (MCL) injuries are a common knee injury, especially in competitive athletes. Identifying genetic loci associated with MCL injury could shed light on its etiology. A genome-wide association screen was performed using data from the Research Program in Genes, Environment and Health (RPGEH) including 1 572 cases of MCL injury and 100 931 controls. 2 SNPs (rs80351309 and r...
متن کاملElbow medial collateral ligament injuries
Elbow medial collateral ligament sprain occurs when the elbow is subjected to a valgus force exceeding the tensile properties of the medial collateral ligament (MCL). This is an injury seen more often in throwing athletes. Understanding the differential diagnosis of medial elbow pain is paramount to diagnose MCL injury as well as addressing other medial elbow pathology. A natural evolution rega...
متن کاملTreatment of medial collateral ligament injuries.
The medial collateral ligament is the most frequently injured ligament of the knee. The anatomy and biomechanical role of this ligament and the associated posteromedial structures of the knee continue to be explored. Prophylactic knee bracing has shown promise in preventing injury to the medial collateral ligament, although perhaps at the cost of functional performance. Most isolated injuries a...
