There are many studies in the literature on the use of adductor magnus and quadriceps tendons in primary or revision surgery of patellofemoral instability in skeletally immature patients. In this Technical Note, the combination of both tendons is presented with cellularized scaffold implantation cartilage surgery in the patella.

A biomechanical analysis of four medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction techniques.

Background: Implant free medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction is an increasingly popular technique to address patellar instability. There remains sparse literature on the biomechanical differences between the most common femoral attachment fixation points including Schottle's point, superficial medial collateral ligament, and adductor magnus tendon. This study compared these reconstruction techniques as well as a novel triangle reconstruction integrating both superficial medial collateral ligament and adductor magnus tendon.

Article Synopsis
- - The study explores how leg dominance affects the choice of perforator flap donor sites for reconstruction surgeries using advanced imaging techniques to enhance preoperative planning.
- - In a sample of 40 patients, most (87.5%) were right-leg dominant, showcasing that the dominant leg typically has larger and more numerous perforators for certain flap types compared to the nondominant leg.
- - Results suggest that surgeons may benefit from prioritizing the dominant leg as a donor site, as it has better vascular characteristics and muscle thickness for improving surgical outcomes, although no significant differences were found in the subcutaneous tissue thickness.
Anatomical Relationships of the Proximal Attachment of the Hamstring Muscles with Neighboring Structures: From Ultrasound, Anatomical and Histological Findings to Clinical Implications.
Diagnostics (Basel)
August 2024
Basic Sciences Department, Universitat Internacional de Catalunya, 08017 Barcelona, Spain.
Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the relationships between the proximal attachments of hamstring muscles and surrounding structures using ultrasound and anatomical samples from 97 hemipelvis specimens.
- Results show distinct hyperechogenic lines surrounding the origins of the semimembranosus and biceps femoris, and reveal that the semimembranosus muscle has a more proximal origin compared to other hamstring muscles.
- The findings suggest that these anatomical connections may help explain the common injuries at the origins of the hamstring muscles.
Localizing motor entry points of adductor muscles of thigh for motor point procedures in the treatment of adductor spasticity.

Spasticity which is focal or segmental such as affecting a single muscle group or limb can be treated by chemical neurolysis or surgical denervation at the neurovascular hilus. This study determines the motor entry points (MEPs) of adductor muscles of the thigh in the adult Indian population and identifies precise anatomical landmarks for the successful performance motor point procedures for the relief of muscle spasticity. A total of 10 adult lower limbs were dissected, and nerve branches to adductor muscles were carefully exposed up to their MEP.

Article Synopsis
- Dynamic knee valgus (DKV) is linked to a higher risk of ACL injuries, making it crucial to study muscle activity in those with this condition to enhance prevention strategies.
- A meta-analysis reviewed four studies, involving 130 participants, to compare muscle activation in individuals with DKV versus healthy individuals during single-leg and overhead squats.
- Results showed significant differences in muscle activity across several muscle groups in the DKV cohort, indicating compensatory muscle responses and highlighting the importance of targeted rehabilitation to improve knee stability.
