Patellar tendon length after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.
We studied changes in patellar tendon length after reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament using either the medial third of the patellar tendon as a graft (n = 40) or a Leeds-Keio artificial ligament (n = 40). Both types of ligament replacement had been supplemented with a MacIntosh extra-articular lateral substitution. The mean change in length in the tendon graft group was 6% (SD 5.3...
متن کاملPatellar tendon ossification after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using bone – patellar tendon – bone autograft
BACKGROUND Among the various complications described in literature, the patellar tendon ossification is an uncommon occurrence in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction using bone - patellar tendon - bone graft (BPTB). The heterotopic ossification is linked to knee traumatism, intramedullary nailing of the tibia and after partial patellectomy, but only two cases of this event linked to...
متن کاملMR Imaging Findings of Patellar Tendon after Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction with Bone-Tendon-Bone Autograft
reconstruction by means of bone-patellar-bone (BTB) autografting is an increasingly popular procedure for the stabillization of ACL-deficient knee (1, 2). The central one-third of the patellar tendon and bony plugs are excised together to increase strength, durability and elasticity (3, 4) and the donor site is allowed to heal by primary intensification. The outcome of ACL reconstruction, using...
متن کاملAvoiding mismatch in allograft anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: correlation between patient height and patellar tendon length.
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether a correlation exists between patient height and soft-tissue patellar tendon length. METHODS Magnetic resonance imaging (1.5 T) was performed for knee pathology on 403 patients. The patellar tendon length was measured in the midsagittal plane by a board-certified musculoskeletal radiologist. Patient height was recorded to the nearest in...
متن کاملQuadriceps strength and functional capacity after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. Patellar tendon autograft versus allograft.
Harvesting the central third of the patellar tendon for autograft anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction is thought to compromise quadriceps strength and functional capacity. We compared objective measurements of quadriceps strength and functional capacity in athletes after patellar tendon autograft or allograft anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. We looked at 33 active male patients ...
