Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears are a common orthopaedic injury, particularly in athletic populations. Primary ACL reconstructions (ACLR) have fairly successful outcomes; however, there is a subset of patients who experience failure or re-injury and require a technically challenging revision ACLR procedure.

Early weight bearing and early rehabilitation intervention vary for allograft and hamstring autograft. Please reference specific instructions below. Expectations are the early return to sport phase will be delayed.

2024年12月17日 · Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR), despite its effectiveness in restoring knee stability and function, can have associated morbidity. The most frequent complications are technical errors, which have been described during graft harvesting, tunnel placement or graft fixation.

Rehabilitation is a key component of the recovery process after an anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). The fundamental goal for the athlete is to return to sport as quickly as possible, preferably performing at the same level as preinjury, while minimising the risk of reinjury.

There are two different techniques used for ACL reconstruction: In the 1970s and 1980s the extra-articular procedure was commonly performed for anterior tibial subluxation to eliminate any pivot shift. It has, however, lost favour due to residual instability and the later development of degenerative changes.

2017年1月5日 · Surgical technique for bone–patellar tendon–bone autograft harvest and preparation for use during left knee anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) in a patient.

2025年1月23日 · Recovery from anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) induces bilateral functional and physiological adaptations. Neurophysiologic measures of motor control have focused on the involved knee joint, limiting understanding regarding the extent of bilateral neural adaptations.

Chief among these is graft selection, which most commonly falls into 1 of 4 options: bone−patellar tendon−bone (BPTB) autograft, hamstring tendon autograft (HT), quadriceps tendon autograft, and allografts. The most frequently used allografts include BPTB, HT, tibialis anterior or posterior tendon, and Achilles tendon.

2023年8月4日 · Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) is one of the most well-studied and -performed procedures in the world. The objectives of operative reconstruction are to restore knee stability and function and reduce discomfort, with …

2017年10月24日 · Purpose: To determine whether the addition of LEAT to primary ACLR provides greater control of rotational laxity and improves clinical outcomes compared with ACLR alone and to assess the impact of early versus delayed ACLR.
