A thorough knowledge of the anatomy of the deltoid and spring ligament complex is important for treatment of deformities that impact the foot and ankle. Both ligaments are interconnected, and the study of their anatomic characteristics is better performed together than in isolation. The deltoid ligament is a group of ligaments that derives its origin from the medial malleolus, and the spring ligament complex consist of a group of ligaments that connects the navicular and the sustentaculum tali of the calcaneus. They both play an important role in stabilization of the medial ankle and medial column of the foot.

Revision of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction presents various challenges not encountered in the primary settings, including malpositioned tunnels, tunnel widening, and the lack of consensus on the ideal graft to be used. This Technical Note describes a one-stage anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction revision using a bone-patellar tendon-bone autograft combined with lateral extra-articular tenodesis. This technique represents the ideal approach to tackle complex revision cases primarily characterized by tibial and femoral tunnel osteolysis and rotational knee instability.

The medial patellofemoral complex provides the primary static restraint to lateral patellar translation and is composed of the medial patellofemoral ligament and medial quadriceps tendon femoral ligament. Multiple techniques including medial patellofemoral ligament and/or medial quadriceps tendon femoral ligament reconstruction have demonstrated good results; however, modification of the femoral fixation technique is required for skeletally immature patients or revision cases in which anatomic bony fixation on the femur is not possible. This technique describes an all-soft-tissue procedure for single-bundle medial patellofemoral complex reconstruction in which the graft is fixed on the adductor tendon while using the medial collateral ligament as a distalizing pulley, for anatomic and isometric recreation of the native ligament.

This Technical Note describes a surgical approach that combines circumferential fiber augmentation with transtibial pullout repair for the treatment of medial meniscal posterior root tears. To address the challenge of meniscal extrusion and subsequent joint space narrowing that predisposes to osteoarthritis, this technique uses an artificial ligament to add circumferential collagen fiber reinforcement to improve meniscal extrusion. This integrated approach is designed to address the limitations of conventional tibial pullout repairs by potentially providing better results in preventing meniscal extrusion.

Purpose: (1) To evaluate the incidence and combination types of concomitant malleolar and fibular fractures in patients with distal spiral tibial shaft fractures. (2) To evaluate the risk factors for concomitant malleolar fractures in patients with distal spiral tibial shaft fractures.
Methods: A retrospective review was performed on 64 cases of surgically treated distal spiral tibial shaft fractures with complete radiographs and computed tomography (CT) scans.

The urgent etiological diagnosis represents the main management objective of cervical spondylodiscitis (CSD) to start as soon as possible antibiotic treatment to prevent neurological deterioration. The present study aimed to evaluate a multicenter experience implementing a minimally invasive surgical approach (MISA) to manage CSD such pathology vs the most complex and aggressive surgical strategies currently used.This retrospective multicenter study used a database of 70 patients from five European neurosurgical centers.
