Abstract
Despite early reports of high failure rates in knee ligament repair techniques resulting in favor of reconstruction, newer advances in surgical technology have shifted the attention back to repair with the addition of various tissue augmentation techniques. Ligament repair preserves proprioceptors in the native ligament and avoids autograft tendon harvest, minimizing the complications associated with donor site ruptures in reconstruction techniques. Tissue augmentation has been successfully used in knee ligamentous and tendon repair procedures, as well as in some upper extremity procedures. This study provides a clinical update on the surgical techniques, biomechanics, and outcomes with the application of various tissue augmentation techniques in the ligaments surrounding the knee joint.
期刊介绍:
Orthopedic Research and Reviews is an international, peer-reviewed, open-access journal focusing on the patho-physiology of the musculoskeletal system, trauma, surgery and other corrective interventions to restore mobility and function. Advances in new technologies, materials, techniques and pharmacological agents will be particularly welcome. Specific topics covered in the journal include: Patho-physiology and bioengineering, Technologies and materials science, Surgical techniques, including robotics, Trauma management and care, Treatment including pharmacological and non-pharmacological, Rehabilitation and Multidisciplinarian care approaches, Patient quality of life, satisfaction and preference, Health economic evaluations. The journal welcomes submitted papers covering original research, basic science and technology, clinical studies, reviews and evaluations, guidelines, expert opinion and commentary, case reports and extended reports.
