Medial meniscus ramp tears are tears of the posteromedial capsule or peripheral rim of the posteromedial meniscus that frequently occur with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears. The incidence and prevalence of medial meniscus ramp tears has been increasing in the recent literature due to the increased understanding of the anatomy and diagnosis of these tears. When a patient presents with an ACL tear, a medial meniscus ramp tear should be suspected if the patient has a grade 3+ Lachman or pivot-shift exam, a vertical line of increased signal intensity in the posterior capsule or peripheral meniscus on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), or posteromedial tibial plateau bone bruising on MRI.

Purpose: To synthesize the current literature on posterolateral corner (PLC) reconstruction and repair, focusing on a comparison of surgical techniques and outcomes based on injury chronicity in the setting of sports-related ligament tears.
Methods: A systematic review of the literature, including queries of the PubMed/MEDLINE, Embase, and Cochrane Library databases, was performed in March 2024. Studies were included if they were of Level IV evidence or greater, reported PLC reconstruction or repair outcomes, and had a minimum 2-year follow-up.

Introduction And Objective: Assessment of urethral stricture (US) management in a specific group of professionals, Urology Residents, in a specific region (Spain), seems to be important to determine the quality of the educational program and design educational interventions to improve it. We aim to investigate diagnosis and therapeutics practices among Urology Residents for the US management.
Materials And Methods: 20-question on-line survey was conducted among residents and junior consultants registered on the mailing list of residents and young urologists of the Spanish Association of Urology (RAEU) group of the educational period 2018-2023.

Ruptures of the quadriceps tendon (QT) are rare but serious injuries accounting for less than 2% of all tendon injuries around the knee. These injuries, often occurring in individuals over 40, are leading to a loss of active extension and a significant impact on knee function. While the treatment of acute QT ruptures through various reinsertion techniques has shown excellent outcomes, managing chronic injuries and failed primary repairs remains challenging due to tendon retraction and difficulties in repositioning the tendon stump.
