Bone graft procurement for patellar defect grafting in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Bone grafting of the patellar defect from harvest of the central third bone-patellar tendon-bone autograft in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction has been advocated by some authors to decrease the risk of patellar fracture from the existing stress riser as well as decrease postoperative donor site pain. We present a method of harvesting bone reamings during ACL reconstruction that is simple, efficient, and maximizes the amount of bone that can be collected.

Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction with or without Bracing
Background: Rupture of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) would cause instability and disability and if left untreated. Reconstruction is performed by different techniques including patellar bone graft, as the strongest device. Application of brace after ACL reconstructions has revealed doubtful results. Methods: One hundred ACL ruptured patients randomized into two groups were reconstructed with...
متن کاملAnatomy, Biology and Biomechanics of Patellar Tendon Autograft Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
Autologous bone-patellar tendon-bone autograft is a common choice for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction and from both biologic and biomechanical perspectives is well-suited for this purpose. A centrally harvested, 10 mm wide patellar tendon graft has an estimated initial load-to-failure of 2977 N, and interference screw fixation of associated bone blocks provides initial pull-out streng...
متن کاملThe modified bone-patellar tendon-bone allograft in single-bundle anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.
Bone-patellar tendon-bone graft has been an attractive option for single-bundle anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction in clinical practice. However, the graft-tunnel mismatch in the proximal part of the tibial tunnel and the ultimate strength after postoperative ligamentization process have been potential problems for the traditional 10-mm wide graft. We modified the traditional bone-patell...

Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with bone-patellar tendon-bone autograft has long been considered the graft preference for young, active patients with anterior cruciate ligament injuries. The central-third of the native patellar tendon is a reliable graft and is the preferred option for competitive athletes given its excellent track record with high return-to-play rates and low failur...
متن کاملGraft Choices for Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
The question of which graft to use for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction continues to be debated at meetings around the world. The overall choice of grafts consists of autografts, allografts, and synthetic grafts. By far the two most commonly used grafts are central third bone-patellar tendon-bone and hamstring tendon, either semitendinosus alone or semitendinosus combined with gr...
