Comparison of Synovialization and Clinical Outcomes between Anterior Cruciate Ligament Anteromedial Bundle Augmentation and Double-Bundle Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.

This study aimed to compare clinical outcomes and second-look arthroscopic findings between double-bundle anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction for complete ACL rupture and anteromedial (AM) bundle augmentation with preservation of the posterolateral (PL) bundle in isolated AM bundle rupture. Between 2014 and 2021, we retrospectively analyzed 95 ACL reconstructions with at least 2 years of follow-up. Patients undergoing primary ACL reconstruction from January 2014 to June 2021 were included in the study.

Long Term Result of Weil Osteotomy and Callotasis for Bilateral Brachymetatarsia: A Case Report.

Introduction: Brachymetatarsia can be treated by lengthening of the affected metatarsals or shortening of the normal neighboring metatarsals. Combination of the two methods may be more effective rather than using one skill due to less complications.

Case Report: A 56-year-old female patient with the bilateral first, fourth-ray brachymetatarsia underwent Weil osteotomy of the second, third, fifth metatarsals, and callotasis of the fourth metatarsal.

Factors Affecting the Extent of Graft Tendon Synovialization after Double-Bundle Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction: Based on Second-Look Arthroscopic Findings.

Background: We aimed to examine the factors that influence synovialization of the grafted tendon after double-bundle anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction based on second-look arthroscopic findings.

Methods: Out of 205 knees that were treated between August 2008 and May 2016 with double-bundle ACL reconstruction using bio-absorbable cross-pins and Endobuttons for femoral tunnel fixation, we enrolled 65 knees (64 patients) that underwent second-look arthroscopy with hardware removal at 1 year postoperatively. Measured clinical outcomes included the Lysholm score and Tegner activity score that were evaluated preoperatively and during the final follow-up.
