Anatomical Single-bundle Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Using a Freehand Transtibial Technique.

Purpose: In anatomical single-bundle (SB) anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction, the traditional transtibial approach can limit anatomical placement of the femoral tunnel.

Surgical Technique: We present a novel three-point freehand technique that allows for anatomic SB ACL reconstruction with the transtibial technique.

Materials And Methods: Between January 2012 and December 2012, 55 ACL reconstructions were performed using the three-point freehand technique.

Spontaneous healing of a displaced bucket-handle tear of the lateral meniscus in a child.

Bucket-handle tears less frequently occur in the lateral meniscus than in the medial meniscus. An 11-year-old male patient complained of painful swelling and locking due to a displaced bucket-handle tear of the lateral meniscus. We recommended an arthroscopic surgery; however, the patient left the hospital without surgical treatment.

Patellar dislocation with genu valgum treated by DFO.

Congenital habitual patellar dislocation is a rare condition of the knee where the patella dislocates during flexion and relocates during extension. The congenital form is permanent, irreducible, and presents at birth. It is characterized by a short quadriceps and a major patellofemoral dysplasia and short height.
