Knee-laxity measurements were elevated in the without-revision group, but the difference was not significant. Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACL reconstruction) is a surgical tissue graft replacement of the anterior cruciate ligament, located in the knee, to restore its function after anterior cruciate ligament injury.The torn ligament is removed from the knee before the graft is inserted through a hole created by a single hole punch. doi: 10.2106/JBJS.ST.20.00055. Careers. Houston Methodist Orthopedics & Sports Medicine. Thomas et al. Mayo Clinic has substantial experience with all of these procedures. Some authors suggest that an accelerated rehabilitation program for revision ACLR is not appropriate because of weaker initial graft fixation [20]. - with a posteriorly positioned femoral tunnel consider final tibial graft fixation in full extension ratherthan 30 deg flexion, since positioning - Effects of notchplasty and femoral tunnel position on excursion patterns of an anterior cruciate ligament graft.

This provides a cylindrical graft, which is delivered to the femoral tunnel through the arthroscopic portal. Von recum et al. Preoperative planning is critical to identify and characterize bone tunnel pathology. [11] reported the results of 49 consecutive two-stage revision ACLRs in which the tibial tunnel was grafted (the bone graft was taken from the ipsilateral iliac crest) during the first stage, followed by an ACLR using various grafts and fixation methods for the second stage. endobj

Modified Transtibial Versus Anteromedial Portal Technique in Anatomic Single-Bundle Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction. Typically, a staged procedure requires an average delay of 4 to 6months to allow for the bone defect to heal [11, 18], likely subjecting patients to a prolonged period of knee instability and thus adding to the risk of meniscal injury, additional deterioration of muscle strength, and osteochondrosis [32].

proprioceptive reflex leading to a functional extension loss while the patient is awake. Root tears also put tremendous forces on the ACL graft and can lead to rotational instability and graft failure. Cancel anytime. Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction remains the gold-standard treatment for young active patients with functional instability after an ACL injury. Battaglia and Miller [12] indicated that bone grafting should be performed in cases with a tunnel diameter of 1015mm. In 4 studies, the authors reported the time interval between first and second surgeries, with an average of 6.1 months for ICBG compared with 8.7 months for allogenic and synthetic grafts.

However, with precise indications, proper preoperative planning and operative-technique selection, two-stage revision ACLR can achieve favorable outcomes. They observed that the the failure rate was 10.3% in the one-stage revision group and 6.1% in the two-stage group. The goal of revision ACLR is to improve knee stability and activity levels, but the outcomes are reported to be inferior to those of primary ACLR [3]. TECHNIQUE STEPS. The site is secure. A revision procedure may be performed to improved knee function, correct instability, and facilitate a return to normal activities.
