چکیده

background: ligament reconstruction is a common procedure in orthopedic surgery. although several popular techniques are currently in use, new methods are proposed for secure fixation of the tendon graft into the bone tunnel. purposes: we sought to introduce our new technique of bashti bone plug for fixation of soft tissue graft in anterior cruciate ligament (acl) reconstruction and to compare its biomechanical features with conventional absorbable interference screw technique in a bovine model. methods: twenty pairs of bovine knees were harvested after death. soft tissue was removed and the achilles tendon was harvested to be used as an acl graft. it was secured into the bone tunnel on the tibial side via two different methods: bashti bone plug technique and conventional screw method. biomechanical strength was measured using 200 n and 300 n cyclic loading on the graft. pull out strength was also tested until the graft fails. results: no graft failure was observed after 200 n and 300 n cyclic loading in either fixation methods. when testing for pull out failure, 21 tendons (53%) were torn and 19 tendons (48%) slipped out. no fixation failure occurred, which did not reveal a significant difference between the bone plug or interference screw group (p=0.11). the mean pull out force until failure of the graft was 496±66 n in the screw group and 503±67 n in the bone plug group (p=0.76). conclusions: our suggested fixation technique of bashti bone plug is a native, cheap, and feasible method that provides comparable biomechanical strength with interference screw when soft tissue fixation was attempted in bovine model.

Comparison of screw post fixation and free bone block interference fixation for anterior cruciate ligament soft tissue grafts: biomechanical considerations.

Endoscopic (single-incision) anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction with bone patellar tendon bone can usually be secured with interference screws on the femur and tibia. Infrequently, patella alta, which results in a longer tendinous component of the graft construct, can result in construct mismatch, resulting in a large portion of the tibial bone plug extruding from the tibial tunnel...

Erratum to: A biomechanical comparison between cortical bone trajectory fixation and pedicle screw fixation

Erratum After publication of the original article [1] it came to our attention that the legends for figures 2 and 3 had been interchanged. The correct legend for figure two is 'Pedicle screw fusion model' and the correct legend for figure three is 'Cortical bone trajectory model'. biomechanical comparison between cortical bone trajectory fixation and pedicle screw fixation. permits unrestricted...

A biomechanical comparison between cortical bone trajectory fixation and pedicle screw fixation

PURPOSE There have been several reports on the pullout strength of cortical bone trajectory (CBT) screws, but only one study has reviewed the stability of functional spine units using the CBT method. The purpose of this study was to compare vertebral stability after CBT fixation with that after pedicle screw (PS) fixation. METHODS In this study, 20 lumbar spine (L5-6) specimens were assigned ...
