Instabilities of the subtalar joint are commonly overlooked or mismanaged, and chronic instability is a debilitating condition leading to premature joint degeneration. Several methods of treatment have been described, mainly screw fixation, arthrodesis, or ligament reconstruction. Most studies describe open methods for ligament reconstruction. We describe an original technique for "all-inside" arthroscopic graft reconstruction of the interosseous talocalcaneal ligament for subtalar instability.

Osteochondritis dissecans is a rare condition characterized by the deterioration of a small area of bone and cartilage without infection. Its exact cause is unclear, though factors such as abnormal bone development, joint pressure, repetitive injuries, inadequate blood supply, and genetic links have been observed. In this case, a 27-year-old woman experienced chronic right knee pain following a twisting injury, which led to reduced mobility and mild pain.

Background: Short-term follow-up studies have reported favorable clinical outcomes after arthroscopic superior capsule reconstruction (SCR) for irreparable rotator cuff tears.

Purpose: To assess whether these positive outcomes are maintained long-term and whether cuff tear arthropathy worsens over time after fascia lata autograft SCR.

Study Design: Case series; Level of evidence, 4.

Article Synopsis
  • Popliteal artery injury is a rare but significant complication of knee arthroscopic surgery, highlighting a need for more research due to a lack of data and guidelines.
  • The study analyzed 17,000 procedures and found a 0.059% incidence of popliteal artery injury among 10 patients, detailing the types of surgeries performed and various treatment methods used.
  • After an average follow-up of over 43 months, patients showed no reported complications and exhibited positive recovery in joint function and vascular health.

Outcomes of All-Inside Arthroscopic ACL Reconstruction with Lateral Extra-Articular Tenodesis (ACLR + LET).

Indian J Orthop

January 2025

Department of Orthopaedics, Kalinga Institute of Medical Sciences, KIIT University, Bhubaneshwar, Odisha 751024 India.

Background: Anatomic single-bundle ACL reconstruction (ACLR) produces good results when the graft and tunnel are positioned in the anatomic footprint on the femoral and tibial insertion sites in a more oblique orientation. The of the knee and its biomechanical role in controlling rotational laxity, internal rotation, and pivot shift has led to adding adjunctive procedures like extra-articular augmentation and lateral extra-articular tenodesis (LET) to decrease rotational laxity. We prospectively analyzed young adults with rotational instability and generalized laxity undergoing an arthroscopic single bundle ACLR with an additional LET procedure.
