Arthroscopic evaluation of anatomical variations of the oblique popliteal ligament and their association with popliteal cyst formation.
Orthop Traumatol Surg Res

Pôle Aixois de Chirurgie Articulaire et Sportive, La Bastide d'Axium, 21, Avenue Alfred Capus, 13090 Aix-en-Provence, France.
Introduction: The posteromedial compartment of the knee houses several important anatomical structures, including the oblique popliteal ligament (OPL), an accessory insertion tendon of the semimembranosus muscle. Popliteal cysts develop from the synovial bursa located between the medial gastrocnemius and the semimembranosus, typically secondary to intra-articular pathologies causing effusion. This study aimed to describe the normal anatomy of the postero-medial capsule of the knee and its anatomical variations, particularly in the presence of popliteal cysts.

Stability of the distal radioulnar joint, which varies among individuals, is dependent on the bony structure of the sigmoid notch and the surrounding soft tissues, such as the interosseous membrane, the extensor carpi ulnaris tendon, the pronator quadratus, and the deep radioulnar ligaments. In particular, avulsions of the deep radioulnar ligaments lead to instability and disturbed wrist proprioception.

Article Synopsis
- Poikiloderma with neutropenia (PN) is a rare genetic condition resulting from mutations in a specific gene, characterized by skin changes, ongoing low neutrophil levels, and recurrent respiratory infections.
- A case study of a 15-month-old boy revealed symptoms like skin hyperpigmentation, growth issues, and respiratory infections, with notable physical traits such as facial dysmorphism and widespread poikiloderma.
- Laboratory tests indicated mild neutropenia and low immunoglobulin levels, leading to treatment with immunoglobulin replacement and antibiotics, highlighting the importance of monitoring immune function in patients with recurrent infections.
Generalized Joint Laxity Increases the Risk of Recurrence of Distal Radioulnar Joint Instability after Arthroscopic Foveal Repair of the Triangular Fibrocartilage Complex.
Arthroscopy
November 2024
Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Yonsei University College of Medicine, Severance Hospital, Seoul, Republic of Korea. Electronic address:
Purpose: To compare the clinical results of the arthroscopic foveal repair of the triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) for distal radioulnar joint (DRUJ) instability in patients with or without generalized joint laxity.
Methods: Patients who underwent arthroscopic transosseous foveal TFCC repair of Palmer 1B foveal TFCC tears (Atzei classification class II or III) from January 2018 to October 2021 were identified. Patients treated for symptomatic DRUJ instability for more than 3 months, and with at least 2 years of follow-up, were included.
[Modified gluteus maximus transfer for hip abductor deficiency].
Oper Orthop Traumatol
October 2024
Klinik und Poliklinik für Orthopädie und Orthopädische Chirurgie, Universitätsmedizin Greifswald, Ferdinand-Sauerbruch-Str., 17475, Greifswald, Deutschland.
Article Synopsis
- The objective of the surgical procedure is to address abductor deficiency by transferring the gluteus maximus and refixing it at the greater trochanter.
- This method is suitable for patients with significant atrophy and fatty degeneration of the gluteal muscles (over 50%), while contraindications include low muscle degeneration, limited strength, and infections.
- The surgical technique involves making incisions to create a triangular flap from the gluteus maximus, which is then repositioned to improve hip stability and muscle function.
