Published: September 2023

The all-inside anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) technique was developed to improve patient outcomes by reducing the procedure's invasiveness, minimizing complications and pain, and enabling faster postoperative recovery. This study presents a detailed description of the all-inside ACLR technique, which involves the use of quadrupled semitendinosus (ST) graft and suspension devices at both tibial and femoral sites, as well as valuable tips for avoiding complications that may arise during the procedure. The surgical procedure employs retrograde drills to create bony sockets for graft passage, which are then fixed with suspension devices at both the tibial and femoral sites. This technique has no specific restrictions and may be applied to all patients with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries. The literature reports the advantages, good clinical outcomes, and medium- to long-term graft survival achieved with the all-inside ACLR technique. However, the complications and disadvantages associated with the technique must be considered.

Background: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are common in pediatric and adolescent patients. Understanding this population's injury characteristics and treatment strategies is vital for managing this high-risk group.

Purpose: To report the descriptive epidemiology and treatment strategies of a large cohort of skeletally immature patients with complete ACL tears.

Background Deep learning (DL) methods can improve accelerated MRI but require validation against an independent reference standard to ensure robustness and accuracy. Purpose To validate the diagnostic performance of twofold-simultaneous-multislice (SMSx2) twofold-parallel-imaging (PIx2)-accelerated DL superresolution MRI in the knee against conventional SMSx2-PIx2-accelerated MRI using arthroscopy as the reference standard. Materials and Methods Adults with painful knee conditions were prospectively enrolled from December 2021 to October 2022.

Background: Patients who incur an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury and undergo ACL reconstruction (ACLR) have the intention of returning to sports at their pre-injury level; however, many do not return to the pre-injury level. This study aims to investigate the common factors that hinder patients from resuming sports activities following ACLR and to assess how these barriers impact their ability to return to sports. We hypothesized that patients' psychological factors, including fear of reinjury, would significantly influence their decision to return to sport after ACL reconstruction.

This study elucidated how previous surgery experience, coping, and optimism influenced the mood of patients who underwent anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction surgery. Additionally, it examined the relationships among age, preoperative mood, and postoperative mood. Sixty-four patients (n = 42 men, n = 22 women; age range = 18-51 y) who underwent ACL reconstruction surgery at one hospital in western Japan completed questionnaires before and after surgery.

Patients with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction frequently present asymmetries in the sagittal plane dynamics when performing single leg jumps but their assessment is inaccessible to health-care professionals as it requires a complex and expensive system. With the development of deep learning methods for human pose detection, kinematics can be quantified based on a video and this study aimed to investigate whether a relatively simple 2D multibody model could predict relevant dynamic biomarkers based on the kinematics using inverse dynamics. Six participants performed ten vertical and forward single leg hops while the kinematics and the ground reaction force "GRF" were captured using an optoelectronic system coupled with a force platform.
