Ectopic insertions of the biceps femoris tendon at the knee can cause impingement with the fibular head, leading to pain with or without snap. There are several variant insertions that have recently been described and classified. Pain syndrome primarily affects athletic patients, often cyclists, disrupting sports practice.

Introduction: Abnormal biceps femoris distal tendon insertion can cause tendon snapping, as is well-known in the literature. The presenting symptom is lateral knee pain, often during sports activities and cycling in particular. The present study tested two hypotheses: abnormal biceps femoris insertion on the fibular head may cause painful friction without clinical snapping, whether visible, audible or palpable; surgical correction achieves good results for pain and return to sport, regarding both snapping and friction.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the effectiveness of 3D planning-assisted methods versus conventional systems in total knee arthroplasty (TKA) to improve component positioning and reduce the risk of complications.
  • It involved a randomized control study with 80 patients, comparing those using patient-specific custom cutting guides (3D-guided group) to a control group using traditional methods.
  • Results showed that the 3D-guided group had significantly fewer misalignments, more accurate positioning, shorter surgery times, and better clinical outcomes over two years, although the overall knee alignment benefits were not statistically significant.

Background: In patients with advanced knee osteoarthritis and extra-articular knee deformity (EKD), ligament balance may be difficult to achieve during total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Treatment options include two-stage surgery with the first stage involving correction of the EKD and same-stage TKA and tibial osteotomy (1S-TKA-TO). The objective of this study was to assess outcomes in 26 patients managed with 1S-TKA-TO.

Background: Same-stage (1S) total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and femoral osteotomy (FO) may deserve consideration in patients with both knee osteoarthritis and severe extra-articular knee deformity (EKD). The objective of this study was to assess clinical and radiological outcomes and morbidity (complications and revisions) in 6 patients managed with S1-TKA-FO.

Hypothesis: 1S-TKA-FO produces satisfactory outcomes and is not associated with higher morbidity rates compared to two-stage TKA-TO or TKA with intra-articular EKD correction, while also significantly shortening total treatment duration.
