Article Synopsis
- * A study reviewed patients under 18 who had surgery for this condition, finding seven cases with an average age of 16 and a symptom duration of about 7 months, all of whom were satisfied with their surgical outcomes.
- * Despite successful surgery, some patients still experienced mild symptoms post-operation, and it was noted that nerve tests could be normal even when symptoms suggest cubital tunnel syndrome.
We evaluated two newer forms of femoral fixation of hamstring grafts for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, the Endobutton direct (Smith and Nephew, Andover, MA) and Femoral intrafix (Depuy Mitek, Raynham, MA), and compare them to devices that have been evaluated in the literature, the AXL Crosspin (Biomet, Warsaw, IN) and Biotransfix II (Arthrex, Naples, FL). Paired hamstring tendon allografts were fixed in the femoral tunnel of 24 cadaveric bovine knees (6 per group) according to each device's specifications. The free ends (tibial sides) were fixed to the materials testing machine via custom-made cryo-clamps.
