Semimembranosus Tendon Advancement for the Anteromedial Knee Rotatory Instability Treatment

Reverse Ramp Lesion Repair in Patients With Meniscotibial Ligament Avulsion Injury: The Hidden AMRI

Lesions of the meniscocapsular junction and the meniscotibial ligament (MTL) of the posterior horn of the medial meniscus are common with knee ligamentous injuries and associated with residual rotational instability if left untreated. MTL avulsion from its tibial attachment has never been described among different types of meniscocapsular disruptions so far. Both diagnosis and treatment of such an injury can be challenging. This article describes a detailed technique and proposes an algorithm to appropriate management of this rare injury.

Medial Collateral Ligament Reconstruction: A Gracilis Tenodesis for Anteromedial Knee Instability

The main principle of the present medial collateral ligament reconstruction technique is to address anteromedial knee instability. Therefore, we describe a gracilis tenodesis with 2 functional bundles to reconstruct the deep and superficial medial collateral ligament. The proposed technique may be performed as an isolated or combined procedure with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. Valgus instability in extension is a contraindication.
