Steep Tibial Slope Increases ACL Graft Failure Despite Lateral Augmentation
A 6-year cohort study finds that posterior tibial slope exceeding 12 degrees significantly raises rerupture risk even with tenodesis.
Biceps Tenotomy and Tenodesis Show Moderately Robust Clinical Equivalence
A meta-analysis using the reverse continuous fragility index suggests current evidence for similar outcomes is statistically stable.
LDTM Transfer Achieves 91% Return-to-Work Rate for Subscapularis Tears
A retrospective study of 189 patients shows significant functional gains and a mean five-month return to employment after tendon transfer.
Increased Tibial Slope Raises Risk of Meniscal Allograft Failure
A retrospective cohort study finds higher posterior tibial slope correlates with reoperation and failure despite stable functional scores.
Isolated MPFL Reconstruction Stabilizes Patella Despite High Femoral Anteversion
Patients with femoral torsion over 30 degrees and minimal maltracking achieved stability without derotational osteotomy in a 2-year study.
Triamcinolone Acetonide Shows No Direct Toxicity to Human Knee Cartilage
Laboratory analysis of human tissue suggests triamcinolone reduces degradative enzymes without causing chondrocyte death or matrix loss.
Cartilage Damage Increases Between Primary and Revision ACL Reconstruction
Registry data show a 0.7% increase in the odds of chondral lesions for every month of delay between initial injury and revision surgery.
