Despite the high incidence of anterior cruciate ligament injury in patients with tibial plateau fractures, we found no reports about anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with retained internal fixation hardware for these fractures. Herein, we report 2 male patients with Schatzker type V tibial plateau fractures and describe the use of retained hardware for internal fixation in tibia. The patients underwent anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using outside-in technique for the femoral tunnel. Throughout the follow-up, no radiological symptoms of suspected knee osteoarthritis were observed. Accordingly, surgical intervention can be reduced by creating an independent femoral tunnel.

Return to Sport and Graft Failure Rates After Primary Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction With a Bone-Patellar Tendon-Bone Versus Hamstring Tendon Autograft: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis.
Am J Sports Med

Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Boston Medical Center, Boston, Massachusetts, USA.
Background: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears are frequent injuries in athletes that often require surgical reconstruction so that patients may return to their previous levels of performance. While existing data on patient-reported outcomes are similar between bone-patellar tendon-bone (BTB) and hamstring tendon (HT) autografts, the literature regarding return to sport (RTS), return to previous levels of sport activity, and graft failure rate remains limited.
Purpose: To compare rates of RTS, return to previous activity levels, and graft retears among athletes undergoing primary ACL reconstruction using a BTB versus HT autograft.
Return to On-Snow Performance in Ski Racing After Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.

Background: The individual variation in on-snow performance outcomes after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction (ACLR) in elite alpine ski racers has not been reported and may be influenced by specific injury characteristics.
Purpose: To report the performance statistics of elite ski racers before and after ACLR and to identify surgical and athlete-specific factors that may be associated with performance recovery.
Study Design: Descriptive epidemiological study.
Impact of tunnel enlargement on patient-reported outcomes following isolated posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.

Background: Tunnel enlargement (TE) might jeopardize knee function and ligament stability after revision surgery of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. To date, only few studies concern TE following posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (PCLR). This study aims to determine TE after isolated PCLR and its relationship with patient-reported outcomes.

Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction aims to improve knee stability and range of motion. The AperFix system consists of polymer components, and fixed-loop fixation is an established endoscopic technique. Our aim in this study was to compare the long-term clinical and radiological results of AperFix and fixed-loop fixation and to prove that the long-term results of the AperFix fixation method are at least as good as those of the fixed loop device.

Ethnopharmacological Relevancy: Danggui Niantong Decoction (DGNTD) is a traditional Chinese medicine compound formula that has been demonstrated to possess efficacy in the treatment of rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoarthritis (OA), as well as for dispelling moisture and relieving pain. As mentioned before, DGNTD is essential for synovial inflammation in RA. The primary features of the OA synovial membrane are low-grade inflammation, hyperplasia with enhanced fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) proliferation, and fibrosis, which can cause pain and stiffness.
