Isolated Tibial Tubercle Fracture With and Without Combined Patellar Tendon Avulsion: Early Outcomes, Complications, and Reoperations.
J Pediatr Orthop
January 2025
Departments of Orthopaedic Surgery.
Background: Tibial tubercle fractures (TTF) are uncommon injuries, comprising <3% of proximal tibial fractures. Rarely, they occur in conjunction with patellar tendon avulsion (PTA). We aimed to compare reoperation rates and short-term postoperative outcomes in patients with TTF versus combined injuries.

Purpose: To use a large nationwide administrative database to directly compare usage, complications, and need for revision stabilization surgery after medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction (MPLFR), tibial tubercle osteotomy (TTO), and combined MPFLR and TTO (MPFLRTTO).
Methods: The PearlDiver Mariner database was queried for all reported cases of MPLFR, TTO, and combined MPFLRTTO performed between 2010 and 2020 using Current Procedural Terminology codes. Subsets from those cohorts with laterality-specific , , codes for patellar instability were used to evaluate 2-year incidence of infection, stiffness, fracture, and revision stabilization with MPFLR and/or TTO.
Background: Medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction (MPFLR) is an excellent surgical option for patients with recurrent patellar instability. This technique has demonstrated significant improvements in patient-reported outcomes, high rates of return to sport, and low rates of failure. However, there is debate regarding the use of isolated MPFLR in the setting of concomitant pathoanatomic features such as patella alta, trochlear dysplasia, or a lateralized tibial tubercle.

Am J Sports Med
January 2025
Midwest Orthopaedics at Rush University Medical Center, Chicago, Illinois, USA.
Background: Mismatch between osteochondral allograft (OCA) donor and recipient sex has been shown to negatively affect outcomes. This study accounts for additional donor variables and clinically relevant outcomes.
Purpose: To evaluate whether donor sex, age, donor-recipient sex mismatch, and duration of graft storage affect clinical outcomes and failure rates after knee OCA transplantation.
Open Reduction and Orthogonal Tension Band Plating of an Isolated Periprosthetic Tibial Tubercle Fracture: A Case Report.
JBJS Case Connect
October 2024
Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Mayo Clinic, Rochester, MN.
Case: A 67-year-old woman sustained a periprosthetic tibial tubercle avulsion fracture with extensor mechanism disruption. She underwent open reduction internal fixation (ORIF) with orthogonal mini-fragment plates applied in a tension band fashion with patellar tendon suture augmentation. Radiographs, range of motion, and patient-reported outcomes were completed over 1 year.
