Objectives: A double button technique using a cortical on both the humeral and ulnar sides of UCLR for fixation has recently been proposed, with advantages including greater control over graft tensioning decreased risk bone tunnel fracture. This was evaluated biomechanically found to be non-inferior traditional docking regarding strength, joint stiffness, strain. However, clinical outcomes have...

This case report focuses on a 17-year-old polytrauma patient who suffered septic wound infection after an open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) soft tissue reconstruction with pedicled flap, which led to substantial bone defect of the lower leg. After thorough antibiotic treatment ensuring non-septic wound, was reconstructed using contralateral free fibula flap designed as flow through in...

This study compared the stiffness (K), yield load (YL), and slippage (SL) of six tibial fixation methods. These properties were determined from load-to-failure and cyclic tests of double-looped tendon grafts fixed to both animal and young human tissue. Tandem washers (K = 259 N/mm, YL = 1159 N, SL = 0.5 mm) and the Washerloc (K = 248 N/mm, YL = 905 N, SL = 2.0 mm) were the two best fixations. A...
