Surgical Outcomes of Lateral Ulnar Collateral Ligament Reconstruction Versus Repair for Posterolateral Rotatory Instability of the Elbow: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.
Orthop J Sports Med
January 2025
Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Asan Medical Center, University of Ulsan College of Medicine, Seoul, Republic of Korea.
Background: The aim of surgical treatment for posterolateral rotatory instability (PLRI) of the elbow is to restore the integrity of the lateral ulnar collateral ligament (LUCL), with ligamentous reconstruction being the preferred option for recurrent symptomatic PLRI. However, there is no clinical evidence demonstrating the superiority of reconstruction versus repair. Treatment options currently depend on the cause of the LUCL injury and surgeon preference.

Eur J Orthop Surg Traumatol
January 2025
Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, University of Utah, 590 Wakara Way, Salt Lake City, UT, 84108, USA.
Purpose: Controversy remains about the ideal construct for certain olecranon fractures. The purpose of this study was to compare cost-effectiveness with the value driven outcomes tool between fixation strategies of olecranon fractures.
Methods: All surgically treated isolated proximal ulna fractures (CPT code 24,685) at a level 1 trauma center from 2013 to 2023 were retrospectively reviewed.
Knotless Suture Anchors Display Favorable Elongation but an Inferior Ultimate Failure Load Versus Titanium Suture Anchors and All-Suture Anchors: A Biomechanical Comparison in a Porcine Model.
Orthop J Sports Med
December 2024
Department of Trauma, Hand and Reconstructive Surgery, University Hospital Münster, Münster, Germany.
Background: Several types of suture anchors, which differ in their working principles, are available for fixation of ligamentous structures in knee surgery. How the choice of a suture anchor type influences the biomechanical stability of ligament fixation is largely unknown.
Purpose: To compare the biomechanical properties of different suture anchor designs regarding primary stability for tendon fixation and repair in medial collateral ligament (MCL) surgery.
Anterior ankle impingement.
Orthop Traumatol Surg Res
November 2024
Clinique de l'Orangerie, 29 allée de la Robertsau, 67000 Strasbourg, France. Electronic address:
Our understanding of the pathophysiology of anterior ankle impingement has steadily progressed since the princeps description almost 70 years ago. The same is true of diagnosis and treatment, which have greatly changed over time. The present study provides an update on this pathology, addressing the following questions: Anterior ankle impingement is suspected in case of anterior ankle pain reproducible by palpation and exacerbated by dorsiflexion imposed by the examiner or squatting, and Molloy's sign.

Thomas Jefferson University Hospital and Rothman Orthopaedic Institute, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, U.S.A.
Since Dr. Frank Jobe performed the initial surgery on Tommy John in 1974, the ulnar collateral ligament (UCL) reconstruction (UCLR), colloquially "Tommy John Surgery," described in 1986 has evolved as the gold standard treatment for UCL tears. The crux of technique modifications involve flexor pronator mass (FPM) management, ulnar nerve transposition (UNT), graft selection, or graft-fixation options.
