Preoperative Templating of Bone-Patellar Tendon-Bone Graft for Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction: A Morphometry-Based Graft Harvest Method.

Background: Knowledge of anatomy and morphometry of the patella and patellar tendon is crucial for the selection of bone-patellar tendon-bone (BTB) graft for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. Graft tunnel mismatch in BTB graft especially in patients with patella alta or baja can result in compromised fixation for the bone-to-bone healing. This complication can be avoided by proper templating of graft using parameters measured from magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).

Bipartite Patella in an Elite Football Player - A Rare Cause of Anterior Knee Pain.

Introduction: Bipartite patella is usually an asymptomatic anatomical variant estimated to have a prevalence of 0.2-6% in an adult population.

Case Report: A 28-year-old league-level football player presented with the left anterior knee pain of 6 months duration.

Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) Injection in Sports Injuries.

Background: Sports injuries are very common, and the management demands high degrees of skills and best techniques for an early return to play. The use of Platelet Rich Plasma (PRP) injections in the treatment of tendon, muscle and ligament injuries has become popular. This study observes the outcomes of PRP injections in sports injuries.

Teledentistry: Is It the Future of Rural Dental Practice? A Cross-sectional Study.

Aim: To bridge the gap between urban and rural population, a vast number of researches are being carried out. Teledentistry is one of the technological advances in dentistry. It is defined by Cook in 1997 as "the practice of using video-conferencing technologies to diagnose and provide advice about treatment over a distance.

Anterior knee pain in ACL reconstruction with BPTB graft - Is it a myth? Comparative outcome analysis with hamstring graft in 1,250 patients.

Unlabelled: Anterior Knee Pain(AKP) has been quoted as the main disadvantage of Bone Patellar Tendon Bone (BPTB)graft in Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction (ACLR). We overcome the problem by harvesting BPTB graft by mini-open mobile window technique.

Objectives: To investigate postoperative incidence of AKP with BPTB graft in comparison with hamstring graft during primary ACLR.
