- Simultaneous anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction and computer-assisted open-wedge high tibial osteotomy: A report of eight cases(2011) DEMANGE, Marco Kawamura; CAMANHO, Gilberto Luis; PECORA, Jose Ricardo; GOBBI, Riccardo Gomes; TIRICO, Luis Eduardo Passarelli; ALBUQUERQUE, Roberto Freire da Mota eEight patients, aged 37-50 years, with chronic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) deficiency, medial compartment osteoarthritis and varus deformity underwent simultaneous arthroscopic ACL reconstruction and open-wedge high tibial osteotomy controlled by a computer navigation system. Despite preoperative planning, the surgeon may need to choose a different osteotomy site during the procedure, invalidating the previous plans. The intraoperative wire control for osteotomies is not precise. The navigation system can help obtain precise alignment during high tibial osteotomy. The average preoperative mechanical axis was 7.5 of varum (sd +/- 1.17 degrees), the average postoperative axis was 1.2 degrees of valgus (sd +/- 1.04 degrees) (p<0.01), and the average correction of the mechanical axis was 8.7 degrees (sd +/- 0.76 degrees). The site of the osteotomy was 3.9 cm (3.5-4.8 cm, sd +/- 0.35 mm) from the articular line, with an inclination of 27.9 degrees (24-35, sd +/- 4.8). The simultaneous use of these procedures allowed proper correction of the knee axis during the surgery. The surgery can be performed concomitantly with ACL reconstruction.
- Evaluation of the isometry of different points of the patella and femur for medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction(2016) GOBBI, Riccardo Gomes; PEREIRA, Cesar Augusto Martins; SADIGURSKY, David; DEMANGE, Marco Kawamura; TIRICO, Luis Eduardo Passarelli; PECORA, Jose Ricardo; CAMANHO, Gilberto LuisBackground: The location of patellar and femoral fixation of the graft in medial patellofemoral ligament reconstructions has been widely discussed. This study aimed to assess the distances between different patellar and femoral fixation points to identify the least anisometric pairs of points. Methods: Ten cadaver knees were attached to an apparatus that simulated an active range of motion of 120, with three metallic markers fixed onto the medial side of the patella, and seven markings onto the medial epicondyle. The examined points included the proximal patella pole (1), the patellar center (3), the midpoint between points 1 and 3 (2), a point directly on the epicondyle (6), points 5 mm anterior (5) and posterior (7) to the epicondyle, points 5 mm anterior to point 5 (4) and 5 mm posterior to point 7 (8), and points 5 mm proximal (9) and distal (10) to the epicondyle. The distances between patella and femur points were measured by a photogrammetry system at 15 degrees intervals. Findings: The pair of points that exhibited the lowest average variability in distance, and hence was the most isometric, was the patella center combined with the anterior to the medial femoral epicondyle. The pairs of points that exhibited the highest average variability in distance, and hence were the least isometric, were the ones located distal or posterior to the medial femoral epicondyle, with less influence by the patellar location. Interpretation: Surgeons should avoid positioning the graft distally or posterior to the epicondyle due to the increase in anisometry.
- Medial patellotibial ligament and medial patellomeniscal ligament: anatomy, imaging, biomechanics, and clinical review(2018) HINCKEL, Betina Bremer; GOBBI, Riccardo Gomes; KALEKA, Camila Cohen; CAMANHO, Gilberto Luis; ARENDT, Elizabeth A.The purpose of this article is to review anatomical, biomechanical, and clinical data of the medial patellotibial ligament (MPTL) and medial patellomeniscal ligament (MPML), as well as studies focusing on the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) but with relevant data about the MPTL and MPML. A literature search of articles specifically addressing the MPTL and/or MPML was included along with studies focusing on the MPFL but with relevant data about the MPTL and MPML. The medial patellar ligaments responsible for maintaining the stability of the patellofemoral (PF) joint include the MPFL, the MPTL, and the MPML. The MPFL is considered the primary restraint to lateral patellar translation, while the latter two are considered secondary restraints. There is robust literature on the anatomical, imaging, and biomechanical characteristics of the MPFL, and also the clinical outcome of its injury and surgical reconstruction; much less is known about the MPTL and MPML. Isolated MPFL reconstruction has good clinical and functional outcomes, with a low failure rate when defined as frank re-dislocation. Complications, including continued episodes of patellar apprehension and subluxation, remain present in most series. In addition, the current literature primarily includes a homogeneous population with few excessive anatomic dysplastic factors. There is lack of knowledge on the role of MPTL and MPML in (potentially) aiding patella stabilization and improving clinical outcomes. Understanding the role of the medial-sided patellar ligaments, in particular the role of the secondary stabilizers, in PF function and injury will aid in this goal. MPTL and MPML have consistent basic science literature, as well as favorable clinical outcomes of surgical patellar stabilization with reconstruction of the MPTL. However, there is much heterogeneity among clinical case series and lack of comparative studies to allow clear indication for the role of isolated or combined surgical reconstruction in patellar stabilization. Therefore, this comprehensive review helps understand the current knowledge and the possible applications in the orthopedic clinical practice. V.
- Why Do Authors Differ With Regard to the Femoral and Meniscal Anatomic Parameters of the Knee Anterolateral Ligament? Dissection by Layers and a Description of Its Superficial and Deep Layers(2016) HELITO, Camilo Partezani; AMARAL JR., Carlos do; NAKAMICHI, Yuri da Cunha; GOBBI, Riccardo Gomes; BONADIO, Marcelo Batista; NATALINO, Renato Jose Mendonca; PECORA, Jose Ricardo; CARDOSO, Tulio Pereira; CAMANHO, Gilberto Luis; DEMANGE, Marco KawamuraBackground: No consensus exists regarding the anatomic characteristics of the knee anterolateral ligament (ALL). A critical analysis of the dissections described in previous studies allows the division of the ALL into 2 groups with similar characteristics. The presence of considerable variability suggests that the authors may not be referring to the same structure. Purpose/Hypothesis: To perform a lateral anatomic dissection, by layers, seeking to characterize the 2 variants described for the ALL on the same knee. We hypothesized that we would identify the 2 variants described for the ALL and that these variants would have distinct characteristics. Study Design: Descriptive laboratory study. Methods: Thirteen unpaired cadaveric knees were used in this study. The dissection protocol followed the parameters described in previous studies. Immediately below the iliotibial tract, we isolated a structure designated as the superficial ALL, whereas between this structure and the articular capsule, we isolated a structure designated as the deep ALL. The 2 structures were measured for length at full extension and at 90 degrees of flexion and for distance from the tibial insertion relative to the Gerdy tubercle. Potential contact with the lateral meniscus was also evaluated. After measurements were obtained, the 2 dissected structures underwent histologic analysis. Results: The superficial ALL presented a posterior and proximal origin to the center of the lateral epicondyle, its length increased on knee extension, and it exhibited no contact with the lateral meniscus. The deep ALL was located in the center of the lateral epicondyle, its length increased on knee flexion, and it presented a meniscal insertion. Both structures had a similar tibial insertion site; however, the insertion site of the deep ALL was located more posteriorly. The analysis of the histological sections for both structures indicated the presence of dense and well-organized collagen fibers. Conclusion: This anatomic study clearly identified 2 structures, described as the superficial and deep ALL, which were consistent with previous but conflicting descriptions of the ALL. Clinical Relevance: This study clarifies numerous controversies encountered in anatomic studies of the ALL. Knowledge regarding the existence of 2 distinct structures in the anterolateral knee will allow more accurate evaluation of their functions and characteristics.
- Regarding ""Intra-articular Injection of Tranexamic Acid Reduced Postoperative Hemarthrosis in Arthroscopic Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction: A Prospective Randomized Study""(2019) GOBBI, Riccardo Gomes; GIGLIO, Pedro Nogueira; HELITO, Camilo Partezani; PECORA, Jose Ricardo
- Radiographic Landmarks for Locating the Femoral Origin and Tibial Insertion of the Knee Anterolateral Ligament(2014) HELITO, Camilo Partezani; DEMANGE, Marco Kawamura; BONADIO, Marcelo Batista; TIRICO, Luis Eduardo Passareli; GOBBI, Riccardo Gomes; PECORA, Jose Ricardo; CAMANHO, Gilberto LuisBackground: Recent anatomic studies have confirmed the presence of a true ligament structure, the anterolateral ligament (ALL), in the anterolateral region of the knee. This structure is involved in the rotatory instability of the knee and might explain why some isolated reconstructions of the anterior cruciate ligament result in a residual pivot shift. Therefore, when considering the least invasive method for reconstruction of this structure, it is important to identify the corresponding bony landmarks on radiographic images. Purpose: To establish radiographic femoral and tibial landmarks for the ALL in frontal and lateral views. Study Design: Descriptive laboratory study. Methods: Ten unpaired cadaver knees were dissected. The attachments of the ALL were isolated and its anatomic parameters were quantified. Its origin and insertion were marked with a 2-mm-diameter metallic sphere, and radiographs were taken from frontal and lateral views. The obtained images were analyzed and the ALL parameters established. Results: The origin of the ALL in the lateral view was found at a point an average SD of 47.5% 4.3% from the anterior edge of the femoral condyle and about 3.7 +/- 1.1 mm below the Blumensaat line. In the frontal view, the origin was about 15.8 +/- 1.9 mm from the distal condyle line. The ALL insertion was an average of 53.2% +/- 5.8% from the anterior edge of the lateral tibial plateau in the lateral view and 7.0 +/- 0.5 mm below the lateral tibial plateau in the frontal view. In anatomic dissections, the origin of the ALL was 1.9 +/- 1.4 mm anterior and 4.1 +/- 1.1 mm distal to the lateral collateral ligament, and the insertion was 4.4 +/- 0.8 mm below the lateral tibial plateau cartilage. Conclusion: The ALL origin on an absolute lateral radiograph of the knee is approximately 47% of the anterior-posterior size of the condyle and 3.7 mm caudal to the Blumensaat line. In a frontal radiograph, the ALL is 15.8 mm from the posterior bicondyle line. The ALL insertion is approximately 53.2% of the anterior-posterior size of the plateau in the lateral view and 7.0 mm below the articular line in the frontal view. Clinical Relevance: Knowledge of the anatomic landmarks of the ALL on radiography will permit minimally invasive surgical reconstruction with lower morbidity.
- Surgical Timing Does Not Interfere on Clinical Outcomes in Combined Reconstruction of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament and Anterolateral Ligament: A Comparative Study With Minimum 2-Year Follow-Up(2021) HELITO, Camilo Partezani; SOBRADO, Marcel Faraco; GIGLIO, Pedro Nogueira; BONADIO, Marcelo Batista; PECORA, Jose Ricardo; GOBBI, Riccardo Gomes; CAMANHO, Gilberto LuisPurpose: To compare the functional outcomes, knee stability, failure rate and complication rates of combined anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and anterolateral ligament (ALL) reconstruction with hamstrings grafts between acute and chronic cases. Methods: Consecutive patients who underwent combined ACL and ALL reconstruction with hamstrings grafts were evaluated. Patients operated on less than 8 weeks after injury were allocated to group 1, and the others were allocated to group 2. Demographic data, knee stability, and functional outcomes of the 2 groups were evaluated. Results: Thirty-four patients in the acute group and 96 in the chronic group were evaluated. The follow-up time was similar between the groups (28.7 +/- 5.2 [24-43] months vs 29.4 +/- 7.2 [24-58] months; P = 0.696). No differences were found between the groups in age, sex, trauma mechanism, presence of knee hyperextension, graft diameter, and meniscal injuries. There was no difference between the groups in the postoperative KT-1000 and in the pre- or postoperative pivot shift. The preoperative KT-1000 was higher in group 2 (7.9 +/- 1.1 vs 7.4 +/- 1.2; P = 0.031). There were no differences in the International Knee Documentation Committee or Lysholm. Three (2.3%) patients developed failure, 1 (2.9%) in group 1 and 2 (2.1%) in group 2. The total complication rate was 10% and did not differ between the groups. Conclusions: Combined ACL and ALL reconstruction has similar outcomes in patients undergoing surgery in the acute and chronic phases. Patients with chronic injury have similar knee stability, functional scores, and failure rates as acute-injury patients, and patients with acute injury have no more complications than chronic patients. Level of Evidence: Level III, retrospective comparative therapeutic trial.
- Extensor mechanism injury, infection, and an extended time between trauma and surgical approach are related to the need for total knee arthroplasty removal after traumatic dehiscence(2023) HELITO, Camilo Partezani; SOBRADO, Marcel Faraco; GOBBI, Riccardo Gomes; DEMANGE, Marco Kawamura; FRANCIOZI, Carlos Eduardo; TKA Traumatic Exposure Study GrpBackground: Surgical wound-related traumatic complications are rarely reported in the lit-erature. Traumatic dehiscence is unpredictable because of the trauma magnitude and the potential of associated injuries. This study aims to report the clinical outcomes and com-plications of a case series due to traumatic dehiscence after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and establish possible criteria for prognosis for maintaining the implant.Methods: Patients admitted to an emergency room due to traumatic dehiscence after TKA were retrospectively evaluated. Patient data was analyzed and patients who maintained or not the arthroplasty were compared to establish prognosis factors.Results: Thirty-two patients with traumatic dehiscence after TKA were evaluated. The trauma occurred on a mean of 14.3 +/-25.0 days after the surgical procedure, and debride-ment in the operating room was performed on a mean of 6.2 +/-4.9 hours after the trauma. Twenty patients maintained the arthroplasty until the end of follow-up and did not require revision. Factors related to arthroplasty removal were associated extensor mechanism injury (p = 0.026), time from trauma to surgical debridement (p = 0.035), and infection (p = 0.0001)Conclusion: Traumatic dehiscence after total knee arthroplasty is an event with a high rate of complications. Extensor mechanism Injury, infection, and extended time between trauma and surgical intervention were poor prognostic factors for arthroplasty maintenance.
- Degenerative Medial Meniscus Tear With a Displaced Flap Into the Meniscotibial Recess and Tibial Peripheral Reactive Bone Edema Presents Good Results With Arthroscopic Surgical Treatment(2021) HELITO, Camilo Partezani; HELITO, Paulo Victor Partezani; SOBRADO, Marcel Faraco; GIGLIO, Pedro Nogueira; GUIMARAES, Tales Mollica; PECORA, Jose Ricardo; GOBBI, Riccardo Gomes; RODRIGUES, Marcelo Bordalo; BERG, Bruno VandePurpose: To report the arthroscopic treatment results of a degenerative medial meniscus tear with a displaced flap into the meniscotibial recess, tibial peripheral reactive bone edema, and focal knee medial pain. As a secondary objective, we propose to identify possible factors associated with a good or poor prognosis of the surgical treatment of this lesion. Methods: From 2012 to 2018, patients who had this specific meniscus pathology and underwent arthroscopic surgical treatment were retrospectively evaluated. Patients with Kellgren-Lawrence (KL) classification greater than 2 were excluded. KL classification, the presence of an Outerbridge grade III/V chondral lesion of the medial compartment, limb alignment, body mass index, and smoking were evaluated. The subjective outcomes included the International Knee Documentation Committee score, improvement in the pain reported by patients, and the Global Perceived Effect (GPE) scale score. Results: A total of 69 patients were evaluated. The mean age was 58.6 +/- 7.1 years. The follow-up time was 48.7 +/- 20.8 months. Fifty-five (79.7%) patients reported pain improvement. The postoperative International Knee Documentation Committee was 62.6 +/- 15.4, and the mean GPE was 2.3 +/- 2.6. Fourteen patients (20.3%) showed no improvement in pain, and 7 patients (10.2%) presented complications. Groups that improved (GPE 0) and did not improve (GPE < 0) did not present differences regarding age, sex, follow-up time, chondral lesions, or body mass index. Patients without improvement had a greater incidence of smoking (P = .001), varus alignment (P = .008), and more advanced KL classification (P < .001). In the multivariate analysis based on the GPE score, KL classification (P = .038) and smoking (P = .003) were significant. Conclusions: Arthroscopic surgical treatment of degenerative medial meniscal tears with a meniscal flap displaced into the meniscotibial recess and adjacent focal bone edema in the tibia shows good results in approximately 80% of cases. Smoking and KL grade 2 were factors associated with poor prognosis of surgical treatment.
