- Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) techniques have substantially evolved over the past several decades, driven by evidence that nonanatomic techniques increase the risk for instability, loss of motion, surgical failure, and posttraumatic osteoarthritis. Early techniques used transtibial femoral tunnel drilling, although improved understanding of the anatomy and biomechanics has led to independent femoral tunnel. Anatomic ACLR requires careful consideration of the native ACL dimensions and orientation. Although there is significant variation between patients, understanding of anatomic patterns allows for reliable identification of the ACL footprints and appropriate tunnel positioning, particularly in chronic injuries where the remanent ACL stump is degraded or absent. The femoral tunnel should be placed low and posterior on the lateral femoral condyle using the lateral intercondylar and bifurcate ridges as landmarks. The center of the tibial footprint can be determined by referencing the medial tibial spine and posterior border of anterior horn of lateral meniscus. Measurement of the dimensions of the native ACL and intercondylar notch is also critical for determining graft size and minimizing the risk of impingement, with a goal of reconstructing 50% to 80% of the tibial footprint area. Clinical outcome studies have demonstrated superior anteroposterior and rotatory knee stability with low surgical revision rates (reported between 3% and 5%). By adhering to the principles of anatomic ACLR, surgeons can produce an appropriately sized and located graft for the individual patient, thereby best restoring native knee kinematics and maximizing function. The aim of this infographic is to highlight essential features of anatomic ACLR techniques, which a focus on the native anatomy and surgical planning to achieve an anatomic ACLR.

- To determine preoperative predictors of long-term acceptable knee function and the development of osteoarthritis (OA) in long-term follow-up after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction.This study is a long-term follow-up of 2 previous randomized controlled trials that included 193 patients who underwent unilateral ACL reconstruction with ipsilateral hamstring tendon or patellar tendon autografts. Patients who suffered multiligament injuries, major meniscal injuries, chondral lesions requiring surgical treatment, or had a previous ACL reconstruction were excluded. Patient demographics, preoperative clinical assessments, and intraoperative findings were used to create stepwise multivariable regression models to determine the patient-acceptable symptom state (PASS) in the International Knee Documentation Committee and the development of OA defined as a Kellgren-Lawrence grade ≥2. Knee laxity measurements, hop performance, patient-reported outcome, and concomitant injuries were determined as variables.A total of 147 patients (63.7% men) were eligible for inclusion, with a mean follow-up of 16.4 ± 1.3years. The patients were an average age of 27.9 ± 8.3years at the time of ACL reconstruction. One-half of the cohort reported an International Knee Documentation Committee evaluation system score above the PASS cutoff. The presence of a concomitant injury at operation (odds ratio [OR], 2.61; 95% confidence interval [CI], 1.10-6.21; P= .030) and greater preoperative anteroposterior laxity (OR, 1.87; 95% CI, 1.05-3.35; P= .034) increased the likelihood of achieving a PASS. A longer period between ACL injury and reconstruction (OR, 2.25; 95% CI, 1.02-5.00; P= .046) and older age at reconstruction (OR, 2.28; 95% CI, 1.34-3.86; P= .0023) increased the odds of developing OA at follow-up.Patients who were older at the time of ACL reconstruction and had waited >1year between the injury and reconstruction ran an increased risk of having OA 16years after reconstruction. One in 2 patients reported acceptable long-term knee function, but no risk factor for poorer subjective knee function was identified. Patients who had a minor concomitant injury and increased preoperative anteroposterior knee laxity had increased odds of reporting an acceptable long-term knee function.Level II; prospective comparative study.

- Purpose: To systematically review the current evidence in the literature to compare return to play following arthroscopic Bankart repair versus open Latarjet procedure for the treatment of anterior shoulder instability. Methods: A literature search was performed based on the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses guidelines. Comparative studies reporting return to play following arthroscopic Bankart repair versus open Latarjet procedure were included. Return to play was compared, with all statistical analysis performed using Review Manager, Version 5.3. Results: Nine studies with 1,242 patients (mean age: 15-30 years) were included. The rate of return to play was 61% to 94.1% among those undergoing arthroscopic Bankart repair and 72% to 96.8% in those undergoing an open Latarjet procedure. Two studies (Bessiere et al. and Zimmerman et al.) found a significant difference in favor of the Latarjet procedure (P < .05 for both, I2 = 37%). The rate of return to play at preinjury level was 9% to 83.8% among those undergoing arthroscopic Bankart repair and 19.4% to 80.6% in those undergoing an open Latarjet procedure, with no study finding a significant difference (P > .05 for all, I2 = 0%). The mean time of return to play was 5.4 to 7.3 months among those undergoing arthroscopic Bankart repair and 5.5 to 6.2 months in those undergoing an open Latarjet procedure, with no study finding a significant difference (P > .05 for all, I2 = 39%). Conclusions: Overall, the majority of studies showed no significant difference in rates of return to play or timing following arthroscopic Bankart repair or open Latarjet procedure. Furthermore, no study has found a significant difference in rate of return to play at pre-injury level, or rate of return to play among collision athletes. Level of Evidence: III, systematic review of Level I-III studies.

Anterior cruciate ligament graft fixation--a myth busted?

- Anterior cruciate ligament graft fixation has become one of the most investigated topics in the sports traumatology literature. With over 400 publications within the past decade, a plausible explanation for the popularity of the topic would be that anterior cruciate ligament graft fixation represents an obvious clinical problem. Yet this does not seem to be the case. We set out to analyze the veracity of the notion that the fixation site is the weak link in a reconstructed knee in the early postoperative period. A mere temporal association is found between the first clinical reports on increased anterior tibial translation relative to the femur with soft-tissue grafts and the first pullout studies reporting lower ultimate failure loads with such grafts. This association was sufficient to convince the orthopaedic community at large that actual causality exists between soft-tissue graft fixation failure and increased knee laxity during healing. Thus the concept of “graft slippage” was born. Even with the imminent risk of being misconstrued as contentious, we submit that the entire concept of graft slippage is a myth, founded on poor scientific practice and affected by commercial bias. As a way forward, clinically important phenomena should be demonstrated through experiments with clear and sound clinical endpoints. As for preclinical studies, although they are indisputably helpful in the elaboration of such phenomena, serious hazards lie in declaring them a sufficient scientific basis for new research or, worse, for clinical standards of care. More importantly, no matter how sophisticated or fascinating their methodology, preclinical studies do not relieve us from the necessity and duty of proving our theories, whenever possible, with randomized controlled trials. Using the search terms “ACL fixation” and “ACL graft fixation,” the Medline literature search results in nearly 600 studies during the last 26 years (1983 to January 2010), of which over 400 have been published within the past decade. As such, anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) graft fixation is among the most investigated topics in recent sports medicine literature.

- © 2017 Arthroscopy Association of North America Purpose To radiographically assess the tibial tunnel up to 5 years after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction using hamstring tendon autografts and biocomposite interference screws. Methods Fifty-one patients underwent anatomic single-bundle ACL reconstruction with metal interference screws in the femur and biocomposite interference screws in the tibia. Standardized digital radiographs with weight-bearing anteroposterior and lateral views of the index knee were taken in the early postoperative period and at 2 and 5 years postoperatively. Of 51 patients, 40 (78%) underwent radiographic assessment on all 3 occasions. Subjective and objective clinical assessments were obtained preoperatively and at the 5-year follow-up. Results The mean follow-up period was 65 months (±3.9 months), with a minimum of 59 months. The width of the tibial tunnel on the anteroposterior view was 9.4 mm (±1.4 mm) in the early postoperative period and 9.2 mm (±1.5 mm) at 5 years (P =.64). The corresponding widths on the lateral view were 9.6 mm (±1.5 mm) in the early postoperative pe riod and 9.0 mm (±1.4 mm) at 5 years (P =.014). In 33 of 40 patients (83%) the width of the tibial tunnel had decreased on 1 or both views at 5 years compared with the early postoperative period. The study group had improved significantly at the 5-year follow-up compared with the preoperative assessments in terms of the KT-1000 arthrometer laxity tests (MEDmetric, San Diego, CA), pivot-shift test, Tegner activity scale, and Lysholm knee score (P < .001). No correlations were found between the tunnel widths and the KT-1000 assessment. Conclusions In 83% of patients, the width of the tibial tunnel had decreased on 1 or both radiographic views at 5 years compared with the early postoperative period after ACL reconstruction using biocomposite interference screws. Level of Evidence Level II, prospective study.
