Anatomic double-bundle posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using hamstring tendons.
Recent biomechanical studies have shown that an anatomic double-bundle posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) reconstruction is superior in restoring normal knee laxity compared with the conventional single-bundle isometric reconstruction. We describe a modification of an endoscopic PCL reconstruction technique using a double-bundle Y-shaped hamstring tendon graft. A double- or triple-bundle semiten...
متن کاملPrinciples for using hamstring tendons for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.
The use of autogenous hamstring tendon as a graft source for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction continues to gain in popularity. The low harvest morbidity and excellent biomechanical graft properties coupled with improved fixation of soft tissue grafts are all reasons for excellent clinical outcomes of ACL reconstruction using hamstring tendons. In addition, surgeon awareness of th...
متن کاملAnterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction with Hamstring Tendons Has no Deleterious Effect on Hip Extension Strength
Background: Hamstring tendons are secondary hip extensors. Their harvest for graft in anterior cruciate ligament(ACL) reconstruction may create deleterious effect on hip extension strength. This is of particular importance in sportsthat need powerful hip extension force like climbing and sprinting. Due to scarcity of a comprehensive study in thisarea, we designed this prospect...
متن کاملoutcome of simultaneous arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament and posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with hamstring tendon autograft: a multicenter prospective study
conclusions simultaneous arthroscopic acl and pcl reconstructions using hamstring tendon for combined acl and pcl injuries is a clinically effective, safe, time saving and cost-effective procedure with better patient compliance and reproducible for a timely return of motion, strength, and function with favorable outcome. background multiligamentous injuries of knee are a complex problem in orth...
متن کاملSerial magnetic resonance imaging of hamstring anterior cruciate ligament autografts during the first year of implantation. A preliminary study.
A prospective, observational study was performed to document the serial changes in the magnetic resonance signal of devascularized, hamstring ACL autografts during the 1st year of implantation. Twenty-one ACL deficient knees (14 chronic, 7 acute) were reconstructed. Instability developed in five knees within the first 6 months of graft implantation (24%). Magnetic resonance examinations were pe...
