Robotic Assistance for Tunnel Positioning in Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
Accurate ideal graft tunnel positioning is essential for the successful application of anatomic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. The accurate insertion of the tibial tunnel (TT) and femoral tunnel (FT) remain a challenge. A robotic assisted new strategy for drill TT and FT in ACL reconstruction will be performed and …
External Focus of Attention Feedback to Reduce Risk of Non-contact ACL Injury
Knee injuries, especially those to the ACL, are common among physically active people. Preventing these injuries from happening is critical to limiting the long-term pain, disability, and arthritis associated with these injuries. Our study is going to examine new ways to provide feedback about the way people move to determine …
How to Best Treat Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injuries
The project is a pragmatic registry-based RCT aiming to investigate ACL injury treatment. Study results will help fill knowledge gaps, facilitate shared decision making and strengthen patient treatment. Included patients will be randomized to (1) early ACL surgery followed by rehabilitation or (2) active rehabilitation with optional delayed surgery if …
ALL Reconstruction Versus Modified Lemaire's LET in Combination With ACL Reconstruction With a Minimum Follow up of 2 Years
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears are associated with concomitant lesions of the anterolateral ligament (ALL), which increase rotatory instability of the knee. If untreated, ALL insufficiency can compromise the results of ACL reconstruction, with higher risk of iterative ACL tear or additional meniscal lesion. Several surgical techniques have been described …
Biologic Therapy to Prevent Osteoarthritis After ACL Injury
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are extremely common. On average, 50% of individuals suffering an ACL injury will develop radiographic osteoarthritis (OA) 10 to 20 years after injury. Unfortunately, ACL reconstruction does not prevent risk of future OA. Interleukin-1 (IL-1) levels in the human knee joint increase transiently after an …
Efficacy of the NXSignal Device for the Treatment of Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injuries
Injury to the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is very common among sports professionals and the general population [. Unlike other joint injuries, it is reversible, but it can damage adjacent tissues, particularly the meniscus, and catalyze knee osteoarthritis. ACL injury produces instability, joint mechanical alteration, which can lead to degenerative …
Medial Collateral Ligament Reconstruction With Anteromedial Reinforcement for Medial and Anteromedial Rotatory Knee Instability
The aim of this study is to assess the outcomes of the combined quadriceps tendon-bone (QTB) ACLR and MCLR with anteromedial reinforcement performed as described in the published technique: K. Malinowski, K. Hermanowicz, A. Góralczyk, R.F. LaPrade, Medial Collateral Ligament Reconstruction With Anteromedial Reinforcement for Medial and Anteromedial Rotatory Instability …
Dynamic Muscular Electrical Stimulation Following Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction in Military Academy Cadets
The goal of this clinical trial is to examine the effects of 12 weeks of post-operative use of a novel wearable electrical stimulation knee sleeve device (KneeStim) on post-operative biomechanical function (gait). Participants will be United States Military Academy cadets aged 17-27 years. The main questions it aims to answer …
Evaluation of the Results of Two Different Methods in Management of Antero-lateral Instability of the Knee
This randomized clinical study will be conducted to compare the results of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) combined with either anterolateral ligament reconstruction using peroneus longus autograft or extra-articular tenodesis (Modified Lemaire) in management of antero-lateral instability of the knee
Steps Towards Osteoarthritis Prevention
Optimal knee joint loading, which refers to the forces acting on the knee caused by daily activities such as daily steps, plays an essential role in maintaining knee articular cartilage health and reducing the risk of osteoarthritis (OA). After anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR), individuals take fewer daily steps as …
