Patellar tendon versus quadrupled bone-semitendinosus anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: a prospective clinical investigation in athletes.
PURPOSE Patellar tendon and hamstrings are both used in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction, and comparisons have been reported with different results. The purpose of this clinical study was to compare the results of ACL reconstruction in athletes with 2 different graft types, both using bone-to-bone healing: bone-patellar tendon-bone graft and a quadrupled bone-semitendinosus graft...
متن کاملThe “Hoover” (vacuum cleaner) technique for calcifying tendonitis deposits excision and removal of the calcific debris
A new technical tip for the improvement of the arthroscopic treatment of symptomatic calcifying tendinitis is described. Arthroscopic excision of calcifying tendonitis may result with multiple minute calcific debris in the subacromial bursa, causing severe post operative pain due to chemical irritation of the bursa. We suggest the use of a bladeless shaver barrel as a "Hoover" (vacuum cleaner) ...
متن کاملMagnetic resonance imaging of patellar tendonitis.
The radiological and MRI appearances of 24 knees with patellar tendonitis resistant to conservative therapy were analysed to identify the characteristic MRI appearance and to determine if the patellar morphology was abnormal. A significant thickening of the tendon was found in all cases; this was a more reliable diagnostic feature than a high signal within the superior posterior and central asp...
متن کاملReduction of postoperative stiffness after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair: results of a customized physical therapy regimen based on risk factors for stiffness.
PURPOSE The purpose of this study was to determine the benefits of a modified rehabilitation protocol (incorporating early closed-chain overhead stretching) in reducing the risk of postoperative stiffness after arthroscopic rotator cuff repair. METHODS During a 17-month period, we performed primary arthroscopic rotator cuff repairs in 152 patients. After surgery, patients with risk factors id...
متن کاملArthroscopic debridement for bilateral calcific tendinitis of the subscapularis tendons: a case report.
We report on a 36-year-old man who underwent arthroscopic debridement for bilateral calcific tendinitis of the subscapularis tendons. The patient had a positive coracoid impingement test for both shoulders. Radiology showed calcific deposits at the insertion of both subscapularis tendons, close to the lesser tuberosities and just posterior to the coracoid tips. The patient underwent sequential ...
