Extra-Articular Lateral Tenodesis for Anterior Cruciate Ligament Deficient Knee: A Case Report
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present the case of an extra-articular lateral tenodesis for an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) deficient knee. A 46-year-old male patient sustained an ACL graft rupture after a motorcycle accident. He complained of rotational instability and giving-way episodes. His previous graft was fixed by an intra-articular femoral staple that was not possible to remove at the time of the ACL revision. A modified Lemaire procedure was then performed. He gained rotational stability and was able to resume his sporting activities. We believe that isolated extra-articular reconstructions may still have a role in selected indications including moderate-demand patients complaining of rotational instability after ACL graft failure.

متن کاملIntra-articular Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction With Extra-articular Lateral Tenodesis of the Iliotibial Band
An increasing concern has been given to the rotation stability of the knee in the setting of an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. This growing interest stems from a better understanding of the rotational stability of the knee afforded by the identification of the anterolateral ligament. Previously, a residual abnormal pivot-shift test had been found after an anatomic single-band ...
متن کاملReconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament with an intra-articular patellar tendon graft and an extra-articular tenodesis. Results after six years.
We describe 74 patients with disabling instability of the knee due to isolated anterior cruciate deficiency. None responded to conservative measures or correction of internal derangements. All patients were treated by replacement of the anterior cruciate ligament with the medial third of the patellar tendon as a free graft, supplemented by an extra-articular MacIntosh lateral reconstruction. A ...
متن کاملExtra-articular tenodesis for anterior cruciate ligament rupture in amateur skiers.
Thirty one amateur skiers with 33 knees which had had a symptomatic chronic rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) treated with the Lemaire operation were reviewed retrospectively at an average of 4.5 years. Of the patients 23 were women. The operation failed to control symptoms in 17 out of the 33 knees. However the operation did control symptoms in 13 out of 19 knees in patients over...
متن کاملBiomechanical evaluation of intra-articular and extra-articular procedures in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: a finite element analysis.
BACKGROUND Intra-articular techniques (single and double bundles) are the most widely used procedures for the anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. Lemaire introduced in 1967 the extra-articular techniques, and combined intra-articular and extra-articular reconstruction, to better restore the stability of the knee. However, the effectiveness of these procedures (intra-articular, extra-arti...
