The study involves a group of patients affected with inveterate lesion of the A.C.L. for at least 18 months. Homogeneous two-staged surgical treatment was carried out: 1) reconstruction of the A.C.L. according to Kenneth-Jones; 2) retention of the popliteus according to Bousquet. Results were: excellent: 18; good: 10; fair: 2. Follow-up was obtained after an average of 18 months.

Functional Outcomes and Return to Sport of Combined ACL Reconstruction and Lateral Extra-Articular Tenodesis in High-Pivot Kabbadi Players: A Prospective Cohort Study of 93 Elite Players.
Indian J Orthop

Department of Orthopaedics and Sports Medicine, Fortis Hospital Mohali, Mohali, Punjab 160022 India.
Article Synopsis
- The study examines the effectiveness of a combined procedure (ACL reconstruction and lateral extra-articular procedure) in treating antero-lateral rotatory instability (ALRI) in kabbadi players, highlighting limited research in this specific sport compared to Western athletics.
- A total of 93 kabbadi players underwent the combined procedure, with various functional outcome scores recorded at multiple time intervals post-surgery, and complications monitored.
- Results showed significant improvements in most knee function scores, with 99% of participants returning to sports and only a low re-rupture rate, while complications were primarily mild and related to the lateral extra-articular tenodesis.
Achieving Specified Laxity in a Noncruciate Total Knee: A Laboratory Design Study.
J Arthroplasty

New York University Langone Orthopedic Hospital, New York, New York.
Background: Noncruciate total knee arthroplasty designs, including ultracongruent, medially congruent, and medial pivot, are gaining increasing attention in total knee arthroplasty surgery. However, there is no consensus for the bearing surface design, whether there should be different medial, lateral, anterior, and posterior laxities, or whether the medial side should be a medial pivot. This study proposes the criterion of reproducing the laxity of the anatomic knee, defined as the displacements and rotations of the femur on the tibia in the loaded knee when shear and torque are applied.

Department of Sports Traumatology, University Hospital of Aarhus, Aarhus, Denmark.
Purpose: It is essential to obtain rotational stability of the knee after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACL-R) and it is suggested that a supplementary reconstruction of the antero-lateral ligament (ALL-R) may supports this. Theoretically, ALL-R may be particularly advantageous to support revision of failed ACL-Rs. It was hypothesized that ACL revision combined with ALL-R will result in superior outcome compared to isolated ACL revision.

Purpose: To identify factors associated with quantified rotatory stability (pivot-shift phenomenon) in the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)-injured knee joint.
Methods: A consecutive sample of 54 patients who were diagnosed with an ACL injury and admitted to our hospital to undergo ACL reconstruction were enrolled in this study. Antero-lateral rotatory laxity of the knee joint was quantified using a Kinematic Rapid Assessment device (KiRA; Orthokey LTD) under spinal block before initiating reconstruction of the ACL.
Does antero-lateral ankle impingement exist?

Antero-lateral ankle impingement syndrome (ALAIS) is a well-established clinical entity that is a common consequence of ankle sprains. Injury to the anterior talo-fibular ligament plays a key role in the genesis of ALAIS. Arthroscopic antero-lateral synovectomy is the standard of care.
