BACKGROUND The results of revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction are limited in the current literature, and no studies have previously documented the outcome of revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using solely hamstring tendon grafts. HYPOTHESIS Revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with 4-strand hamstring tendon graft affords acceptable results and is ...

BACKGROUND Anatomical reconstruction techniques that can restore normal joint kinematics without increasing surgical complications could potentially improve clinical outcomes and help manage anterior cruciate ligament injuries more efficiently. HYPOTHESIS Single-tunnel double-bundle anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with anatomical placement of hamstring tendon graft can more closely ...

INTRODUCTION: Acromioclavicular joint dislocation is a commonly encountered shoulder injury. Various surgical methods are available for the treatment of complete ACJ (type III to VI), however, optimal still controversial. The purpose this study was evaluate radiological and functional outcome anatomic coracoclavicular reconstruction (ACCR) using semitendinosus autograft with suture augmentation...
