Article Synopsis
- Meniscus allograft transplantation (MAT) is a complex surgical procedure that utilizes various fixation techniques, each having its own pros and cons.
- The native meniscus effectively resists hoop stress due to its unique collagen fiber structure, which is not easily replicated in MAT.
- The authors propose using a high-tensile suture tape called InternalBrace to directly alleviate hoop stress and improve meniscus tensioning during the transplantation process.
It is not coincidence that fervor surrounding anterolateral ligament (ALL) reconstruction increased as double-bundle anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) enthusiasm cooled. But perhaps we shifted our focus too soon, or perhaps we shifted our focus too much. But we must remember that the ACL is primary.

Background: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries often involve sudden single leg loading with directional changes. Trunk and lower extremity (LE) load transfer and muscle power are directly coupled during these movements. The effect of trunk and LE long-axis rotation training on forward single leg drop jump landing and stabilization (FSLDJLS) was studied.

Purpose: To present the results of a return to sports bridge program designed to reduce knee injuries following ACL reconstruction and physical therapy.
Methods: One hundred and fifty (male = 83, female = 67) patients participated in a whole body neuromuscular control, progressive resistance strength and agility training program. Post-program testing included functional movement form, dynamic knee stability, lower extremity power, agility, and sports skill assessments.
