  • Arthroscopic medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction combined with tibial tuberosity transfer for recurrent patellar dislocation

    ObjectiveTo investigate the effectiveness of arthroscopic medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction combined with tibial tuberosity transfer for recurrent patellar dislocation.MethodsBetween February 2012 and December 2013, 24 patients (24 knees) with recurrent patellar dislocation were treated with arthroscopic MPFL reconstruction combined with tibial tuberosity transfer. There were 7 males and 17 females, with a mean age of 23.2 years (range, 18-37 years). One patient had recurrence dislocation after operation in the other hospital, and the others were the first operation. The disease duration ranged from 6 months to 20 years (mean, 5.6 years). The patellar apprehension tests were positive. The preoperative Lysholm score was 49.79±11.67 and the Kujala score was 49.63±6.28. X-ray films showed that 13 patients had dysplasia of the patella and femoral trochlea; 8 patients had high tibia (Caton-Deschamps index>1.2); the congruence angle was (23.96±5.54)°. CT examination showed that the tibial tuberosity-trochlear groove distance (TT-TG) value was (23.71±2.35) mm.ResultsAll incisions healed by first intention. Twenty-two patients were followed up 59-81 months, with an average of 66.8 months. No dislocation occurred during the follow-up period. The patellar apprehension tests were negative. At 1 week after operation, the results of X-ray films and CT showed that the congruence angle angle was (–1.96±4.65)°, and the TT-TG value was (13.75±1.89) mm, which were significantly lower than those before operation (P<0.05). At 6 months, 1 year, and last follow-up, Lysholm scores were 81.13±17.76, 91.35±3.60, and 92.23±2.71, respectively; and Kujala scores were 84.04±3.98, 91.48±3.64, and 91.45±3.29, respectively. The Lysholm and Kujala scores were significantly increased after operation when compared with the preoperative scores (P<0.05). At last follow-up, the effectiveness was excellent in 11 cases, good in 8 cases, and fair in 3 cases, with an excellent and good rate of 86%.ConclusionArthroscopic MPFL reconstruction combined with tibial tuberosity transfer for recurrent patellar dislocation can effectively improve the patellofemoral joint matching relationship and has a satisfactory short- and medium-term effectiveness.

  • Effectiveness of medial open wedge high tibial osteotomy combined with posterior slope angle of tibial plateau correction in treatment of osteoarthritis of limited flexion knee with varus deformity

    ObjectiveTo explore the short-term effectiveness of medial open wedge high tibial osteotomy (OWHTO) combined with posterior slope angle of tibial plateau correction to treat the osteoarthritis of limited flexion knee with varus deformity.MethodsThe data of 18 cases (18 knee) with osteoarthritis of limited flexion knee with varus deformity between January 2014 and July 2016 were analyzed retrospectively. There were 6 males and 12 females with an average age of 54.9 years (range, 48-64 years). There were 8 cases of left knee and 10 cases of right knee. The varus of knee ranged from 7.45 to 15.52° (mean, 10.63°). According to Kellgren-Lawrence grading standard, there were 4 cases of grade Ⅱ and 14 of grade Ⅲ. OWHTO was used to adjust the varus deformity, and the posterior slope angle of tibial plateau was adjusted to solve the limited flexion.ResultsThe thickness of osteotomy was 10-19 mm (mean, 14.91 mm). The operation time was 1.2-2.0 hours (mean, 1.4 hours). All incisions healed by first intension. All patients were followed up 1.0-2.5 years, with an average of 1.5 years. At last follow-up, the range of knee flexion and Lysholm score, Hospital for Special Surgery (HSS) score, and International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) score were significantly higher than preoperative ones, showing significant differences (P<0.05). X-ray films showed that the osteotomy healed at 3- 7 months (mean, 3.6 months) after operation. At last follow-up, the limb alignment by the relative position of tibial plateau and the posterior slope angle of tibial plateau were significantly improved, showing significant differences when compared with preoperative ones (P<0.05).ConclusionThe OWHTO combined with posterior slope angle of tibial plateau correction can significantly improve the range of flexion and functional score in short-term.

  • Experience in diagnosis and treatment of KD-ⅢM dislocation of knee joint

    ObjectiveTo explore the effectiveness of one-stage posterior medial corner (PMC) repair or reconstruction combined with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) reconstruction in treating KD-ⅢM dislocation. Methods The clinical data of 15 patients with knee KD-ⅢM dislocation who met the selection criteria between January 2016 and July 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 9 males and 6 females, aged 22-61 years (mean, 40.3 years). Injuries were caused by violence of flexion, valgus, and external rotation, including 10 cases of traffic accident injuries, 3 cases of crush injuries, 1 case of winch injury, and 1 case of explosion injury. The time from injury to operation ranged from 3 days to 6 months, with an average of 18.5 days. PMC repair combined with PCL+ACL reconstruction was performed in 10 cases in acute stage (within 3 weeks after injury), including 3 cases of irreducible dislocation. PMC+PCL+ACL reconstruction was performed in 5 cases with chronic dislocation. Before operation and at last follow-up, the knee joint function was evaluated by Lysholm score and International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) 2000 score. KT-3000 was used to evaluate the forward stability of the knee (calculated the difference of tibial anterior displacement of both knees), the X-ray films of the stress position of the knee joint was used to evaluate the valgus of the knee (calculated the difference of medial joint space width of both knees) and the backward stability (calculated the difference of tibial posterior displacement of both knees), and the internal and external rotation stability was evaluated by knee flexion 30° tibial external rotation and knee flexion 90° tibial internal rotation tests (calculated the difference of tibial internal rotation and the difference of tibial external rotation of both knees). Results The operation time was 120-240 minutes, with an average of 186.5 minutes. Patients were followed up 24-48 months, with an average of 27.4 months. There was no complication such as infection, deep vein thrombosis, vascular injury, or heterotopic ossification. At last follow-up, the Lysholm score, IKDC2000 score, the difference of tibial anterior displacement of both knees, the difference of medial joint space width of both knees, the difference of tibial posterior displacement of both knees, the difference of tibial internal rotation and the difference of tibial external rotation of both knees significantly improved when compared with preoperative ones (P<0.05). According to the IKDC2000 valgus stability grading standard, there were 3 cases of grade C and 12 cases of grade D before operation, and 10 cases of grade A and 5 cases of grade B at last follow-up, which was significantly improved when compared with that before operation (Z=−4.930, P=0.000). At last follow-up, the pivot shift tests of 15 patients were negative. The anterior and posterior drawer tests of 10 patients were negative, 5 patients had mild instability, both the anterior and posterior drawer tests were positive. ConclusionKD-ⅢM dislocation of the knee joint can lead to the posterior medial and anterior instability. Acute dislocation combined with “dimple sign” requires surgical reduction as soon as possible to repair PMC and reconstruct PCL and ACL. In chronic patients, PMC is difficult to repair, it is recommended to reconstruct PMC, PCL, and ACL at one stage to improve knee joint stability. The early and middle effectiveness are satisfactory.
