Unlike anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury, disability from isolated posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) injury varies from no interference with life style to severe impairment of daily activities. Therefore, management of isolated PCL injuries remains controversial. High-energy vehicular accidents often cause more-serious PCL injuries, while less-severe injuries result from low-energy trauma...

Shoulder arthroscopy is a promising tool for assessing and treating patients with a rotator cuff tear. Arthroscopic rotator cuff repair with suture anchor fixation such as the single-row, double-row, and suture bridge technique are popular procedures that can provide excellent clinical outcomes. On the other hand, longitudinal midsubstance, U-shape, or L-shape tears may benefit more from a side...

This research aims to present a novel arthroscopic fixation technique that uses double-row suture anchor for tibial spine avulsion and evaluate its short-term clinical outcomes. The surgical is described retrospective case series presented. Patients who presented with type III IV fractures according the Meyers McKeever classification received same treatment from 2013 2018 in two specialised hos...

BACKGROUND The purpose of our study is to evaluate the clinical results of arthroscopic suture bridge repair for patients with rotator cuff tears. METHODS Between January 2007 and July 2007, fifty-one shoulders underwent arthroscopic suture bridge repair for full thickness rotator cuff tears. The average age at the time of surgery was 57.1 years old, and the mean follow-up period was 15.4 mon...

PCL reconstructive techniques are constantly evolving, and further clinical studies needed to definitively understand the potential benefits of internal brace augmentation anatomic double-bundle reconstruction. This Technical Note reports an arthroscopic all-inside reconstruction with that is effective reproducible.

The influence of acromioplasty in long standing rotator cuff deficiency with intractable pain was retrospectively evaluated in a consecutive series of 13 patients who were followed for a mean period of 19 months (range, 12 to 42 months) after arthroscopic acromioplasty. The Constant score improved from 59.3 (range, 39.9 to 90.3) preoperatively to 98.7 (69.1 to 122.7) postoperatively. Pain and m...
