    3D COMPUTER TOMOGRAPHY FOR MEASUREMENT OF FEMORAL POSITION IN ACL RECONSTRUCTION
    (2015) FERNANDES, Tiago Lazzaretti; MARTINS, Nuno Miguel Morais Fonseca; WATAI, Felipe de Andrade; NETO, Cyro Albuquerque; PEDRINELLI, Andre; HERNANDEZ, Arnaldo Jose
    Objective: To validate intra-and inter-class correlation coefficients of a transparent 3D-TC protocol and investigate relationships between different axial rotations. Methods: Twenty unilateral knee TCs (iSite - Philips) were evaluated by means of a transparent 3D-TC OsiriX Imaging Software (v.3.9.4), 3D MPR protocol. Mathematical model of femoral tunnel projections acquired on vertical and horizontal rotations from -20 to +20 degrees. Height (h'/H) and length (t'/T) of tunnel projections have been analyzed by the Bernard and Hertel's method. Statistics: power of study=80%, ICC, ANOVA, p<0.05 (SPSS-19). Results: Transparent 3D-TC showed high reliability of both intra-observer (h'/H= 0.941; t'/T= 0.928, p<0.001) and inter-observer (h'/H= 0.921; t'/T= 0.890, p<0.001) ICC. ACL Length (t'/T) and Height (h'/H) projections were statistically different on vertical and horizontal rotations: p=0.01 and p<0.001, respectively. Conclusion: This new transparent 3DTC protocol is an accurate and reproducible method that can be applied for ACL femoral tunnel or footprint measurement with high ICC reliability.

    Isokinetic muscle strength and knee function associated with double femoral pin fixation and fixation with interference screw in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction
    (2012) FERNANDES, Tiago Lazzaretti; PROTTA, Thiago Rocha; FREGNI, Felipe; BOLLIGER NETO, Raul; PEDRINELLI, Andre; CAMANHO, Gilberto Luis; HERNANDEZ, Arnaldo Jose
    Intensive scheduling in sports requires athletes to resume physical activity shortly after injury. The purpose of this study was to investigate early isokinetic muscle strength and knee function on bone-patellar tendon-bone (BPTB) ACL reconstruction with double femoral pin fixation or interference screw technique. A prospective study was conducted from 2008 to 2009, with 48 athletes who received femoral BPTB fixation with interference screw (n = 26) or double pin (n = 22). Clinical (IKDC objective score and hop test) and isokinetic muscle strength (peak torque (PT), PT/body weight and flexion/extension rate (F/E) in 60 and 240A degrees/s) were analyzed at 6 months of follow-up. Analysis at baseline showed no differences between groups before surgery related to age, gender, associated injury, Tegner or Lysholm score; thus showing that groups were similar. During follow-up, however, there were significant differences between the two groups in some of the isokinetic muscle strength: PT/BW 60A degrees/s (Double Pin = 200% +/- A 13% vs. Interference Screw = 253% +/- A 16%*, *P = 0.01); F/E 60A degrees/s (Double Pin = 89% +/- A 29%* vs. Interference Screw = 74% +/- A 12%, *P = 0.04). No statistical differences between groups were observed on IKDC objective score, hop test and complications. The significant muscle strength outcome of the interference screw group found in this study gives initial evidence that this fixation technique is useful for athletes that may need accelerated rehabilitation. Early return to sports ability signaled by isokinetic muscle strength is of clinical relevance as it is one of the main goals for athletes' rehabilitation. III.

    BILATERAL LOCALIZED PIGMENTED VILLONODULAR SYNOVITIS OF THE KNEE: CASE REPORT AND REVIEW
    (2018) FERNANDES, Tiago Lazzaretti; VIDEIRA, Livia Dau; SASAKI, Sandra Umeda; NATALINO, Renato Jose Mendonca; ALMEIDA, Adriano Marques de; PEDRINELLI, Andre; HERNANDEZ, Arnaldo Jose
    Objectives: Several cases of bilateral diffuse pigmented villonodular synovitis (PVNS) or tenosynovial giant cell tumor have been described in the literature. Nevertheless, some presentations are rare and differential diagnoses are necessary. Methods: The purpose of this study was to perform a systematic review of the literature related to PVNS and to report a rare supra-patellar bilateral and focal presentation. We performed a systematic data review in the Pubmed Clinical Queries database using MeSH and keywords related to PVNS and tenosynovial giant cell tumor. Results: Two cases of bilateral and local PVNS had been previously described, but neither was localized in the supra-patellar compartment. To our knowledge, this case report is the first to describe supra-patellar bilateral and localized PVNS of the knee. This case involves a 28-year-old woman with bilateral localized PVNS of the supra-patellar recess of the knee. MRI showed a low-signal intensity nodule in T1-and T2-weighted images. These were associated with hemosiderin pigmentation. Conclusion: The most important finding of the case reported is related to rarity and location. Histopathology analysis confirmed a rare case of hemosiderin pigmentation in the capsular nodule with internal non-pigmented villous content. Lipoma arborescens in the supra-patellar form must be ruled out as a differential diagnosis since it occurs in the same site.

    THE NATURAL HISTORY OF THE ANTERIOR KNEE INSTABILITY BY STRESS RADIOGRAPHY
    (2014) REZENDE, Marcia Uchoa de; HERNANDEZ, Arnaldo Jose; CAMANHO, Gilberto Luis
    Objective: To analyze the anteroposterior displacement of the knee by means of stress radiography in individuals with unilateral anterior knee instability and relate to time of instability. Methods: Sixty individuals with intact knees (control group) and 125 patients with unilateral anterior instability (AI group) agreed to participate in the study. Gender, age, weight, height, age at injury, time between injury and testing, and surgical findings are studied. Both groups are submitted to anterior and posterior stress radiographies of both knees. Anterior (ADD) and posterior displacement difference (PDD) were calculated between sides. Results: In the control group ADD and PDD are in average, zero, whereas in the AI group ADD averaged 9.8mm and PDD, 1.92mm. Gender, age, weight, height, age at trauma and presence of menisci's lesions do not intervene in the values of ADD and PDD. Meniscal injuries increase with time. ADD and PDD do not relate with the presence or absence of associated menisci's lesions. The ADD and the PDD are related to each other and increase with time. Conclusion: There is a permanent anterior subluxation of the injured knee that is related to the amount of anterior displacement that increases with time.

    Locking intramedullary nails compared with locking plates for two- and three-part proximal humeral surgical neck fractures: a randomized controlled trial
    (2016) GRACITELLI, Mauro E. C.; MALAVOLTA, Eduardo A.; ASSUNCAO, Jorge H.; KOJIMA, Kodi E.; REIS, Paulo R. dos; SILVA, Jorge S.; FERREIRA NETO, Arnaldo A.; HERNANDEZ, Arnaldo J.
    Background: Previous studies have shown good clinical results in patients with proximal humeral fractures (PHFs) treated with locking intramedullary nails or locking plates. Our study compared the clinical and radiographic outcomes in patients with 2- and 3-part surgical neck fractures. Methods: In this prospective, randomized controlled trial, 72 patients with 2- or 3-part surgical neck PHFs were randomly assigned to receive fixation with locking intramedullary nails (nail group) or locking plates (plate group). The primary outcome was the 12-month Constant-Murley score. The secondary outcomes included the Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand score, the visual analog scale pain score, the shoulder passive range of motion, the neck-shaft angle, and complication rates. Results: There was no significant mean treatment group difference in the Constant-Murley score at 12 months (70.3 points for the nail group vs. 71.5 points for the plate group; P=.750) or at individual follow-up assessments. There were no differences in the 3-, 6- and 12-month Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand scores, visual analog scale scores, and range of motion, except for the medial rotation at 6 months. The neck-shaft angle was equivalent between the groups at 12 months. There were significant differences over 12 months in total complication rates (P=.002) and reoperation rates (P=.041). There were no significant differences for the rotator cuff tear rate (P=.672). Conclusion: Fixation of PHFs with locking plates or locking intramedullary nails produces similar clinical and radiologic results. Nevertheless, the complication and reoperation rates were higher in the nail group.

    Muscle Injury: Pathophysiology, Diagnosis, and Treatment
    (2022) SANTANNA, João Paulo Cortez; PEDRINELLI, André; HERNANDEZ, Arnaldo José; FERNANDES, Tiago Lazzaretti
    Abstract Skeletal muscle tissue has the largest mass in the human body, accounting for 45% of the total weight. Muscle injuries can be caused by bruising, stretching or laceration. The current classification divides these injuries into mild, moderate and severe. The signs and symptoms of grade I lesions are edema and discomfort; grade II, loss of function, gaps and possible ecchymosis; and grade III, complete rupture, severe pain and extensive hematoma. The diagnosis can be confirmed by ultrasound, which is dynamic and cheap, but examiner dependent; and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), which provides better anatomical definition. The initial phase of the treatment consists in protection, rest, optimal use of the affected limb, and cryotherapy. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), ultrasound therapy, strengthening and stretching after the initial phase and range of motion without pain are used in the clinical treatment. On the other hand, surgery has precise indications: hematoma drainage and muscle-tendon reinsertion and reinforcement.

    The influence of femoral tunnel position in single-bundle ACL reconstruction on functional outcomes and return to sports
    (2014) FERNANDES, Tiago Lazzaretti; FREGNI, Felipe; WEAVER, Kayleen; PEDRINELLI, Andre; CAMANHO, Gilberto Luis; HERNANDEZ, Arnaldo Jose
    The purpose of this study was to radiographically investigate the influence of femoral tunnel placement in ACL reconstruction on early outcomes and return to sports due to anatomic and nonanatomic positioning. A prospective study was conducted from 2008 to 2010, with 86 athletes who underwent ACL reconstruction between anteromedial (AM) footprint and high AM position. Knee functional outcomes (IKDC objective and subjective, Tegner score, and Lysholm scale) return to sports and complications were analyzed at 6- and 12-month follow-up. At follow-up, it was observed that tunnel projection along Blumensaat's line was correlated with functional outcomes on Tegner scale (at 6 and 12 months) and IKDC subjective (at 12 months). There was a significant difference in mean tunnel projection along Blumensaat's line when analyzing return to sports (73 +/- A 1.4 and 79 +/- A 1.7 %, respectively, for projections on return vs. no return to sports, p = 0.02) and complications (73 +/- A 1.3 vs. 78 +/- A 1.6 %, respectively, for projections on no complications vs. complications, p = 0.03). No differences were stated on coronal view. These correlations between tunnel positioning on functional outcomes could not be explained by demographic or baseline characteristics. The clinical relevance of this study is that tunnel positioning along AM footprint and high AM position represented by tunnel projection along Blumensaat's line is associated with early return to sports on previous Tegner level and better functional outcome in athletes.

    EPIDEMIOLOGY OF SPORTS INJURIES ON COLLEGIATE ATHLETES AT A SINGLE CENTER
    (2014) ROSA, Bruno Berbert; ASPERTI, Andre Marangoni; HELITO, Camilo Partezani; DEMANGE, Marco Kawamura; FERNANDES, Tiago Lazzaretti; HERNANDEZ, Arnaldo Jose
    Objective: To evaluate the incidence of sports injuries in college athletes from the same institution from 1993 to 2013. Methods: Athletes from 13 modalities were interviewed about the presence and type of injury, type of treatment and time of withdrawal, based on the questionnaire ""Injury Surveillance System"" (ISS). Data were analyzed with graphs and tables of injury prevalence by gender, age, site of injury and modality. We also analyzed the average time of withdrawal of athletes, returning to sports practice and new lesions. Results: It was observed that 49.91% of the athletes showed some type of injury, with similar incidence between genders; the most frequent injuries were the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and the ankle sprain; the average withdrawal time was 11 weeks. ACL was the injury with greater impact on college sports career, especially given the time of withdrawal. Conclusion: The most frequent injury, ACL, occurred most frequently in indoor sports such as handball and volleyball and had the highest number of cases treated with surgery and a longer average withdrawal time. More studies are needed to create a larger database in order to schedule preventive measures for amateur athletes.

    INCREASED RISK OF SPORTS INJURIES AMONG MEDICAL STUDENTS: CROSS-SECTIONAL STUDY
    (2022) ASPERTI, A. N. D. R. E. M. A. R. A. N. G. O. N. I.; JOVANOVIC, I. G. O. R.; CARUI, N. I. C. K. O. L. A. S. A. N. D. R. E. A. S. B. O. M.; PEDRINELLI, A. N. D. R. E.; HERNANDEZ, A. R. N. A. L. D. O. J. O. S. E.; FERNANDES, T. I. A. G. O. L. A. Z. Z. A. R. E. T. T. I.
    Objective: To evaluate the nature and rate of sports injuries in medical students, as well as the risk factors at these events. Methods: All student-athletes (218) from a Medical School, integrated in at least one of the six team sport modalities (soccer, rugby, indoor soccer, handball, basketball, and volleyball) in 2017, were included. Injuries affecting their performance, regardless of time loss, were included. Athlete-exposure (A-E) was defined as one student-athlete participating in one practice or game. Results: Injury rates were significantly higher in junior medical students (1(st) - 3(rd) year) (7.58 per 1000 A-E, 95%CI = 6.11-9.06) than in senior medical students (4(th) - 6(th) year) (4.49 per 1000 A-E, 95%CI = 3.26-5.73) (p < 0.001). Multi-sports athletes had higher injury rates (10.69 per 1000 A-E, 95%CI = 8.22-13.17) than single-sport athletes (4.49 per 1000 A-E, 95%CI = 3.51-5.47) (p = 0.002). More than 60% of reported injuries occurred in the lower limbs and the mechanism that accounted for most injuries in games was player contact (51%); whereas in practice, it was non-contact (53%). Conclusion: Junior medical students present a higher injury rate than seniors. Medical students practicing more than one modality had a higher injury rate than those involved in just one sport modality.

    ANTEROMEDIAL OR CENTRAL ANATOMIC ACL RECONSTRUCTION? A CADAVERIC HIP-TO-TOE STUDY
    (2023) FERNANDES, Tiago Lazzaretti; SOUZA, Michel Oliveira; NETO, Cyro Albuquerque; ARAUJO, Paulo Henrique; PEDRINELLI, Andre; HERNANDEZ, Arnaldo Jose
    Objective: To compare anatomic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction between two tunnel positions in knees with isolated ligament tears. Methods: Anatomic ACL reconstruction was performed, from hip-to-toe, on 15 fresh cadaveric specimens. No associated lesions were created to enhance knee instability. The protocol was conducted in three states: (1) complete isolated ACL deficiency; (2) anatomic femoral and tibial anteromedial ACL reconstruction (AM REC); and (3) anatomic femoral and tibial central ACL reconstruction (Central REC). The reconstruction protocols were randomly assigned. The continuous mechanized pivot-shift test was recorded dynamically with a tracking system. Results: The Central REC group showed a smaller degree of internal rotation (0.6 & DEG; & PLUSMN; 0.3 & DEG; vs. 1.8 & DEG; & PLUSMN; 0.3 & DEG;, respectively, P < 0.05) and no difference in anterior translation (4.7 mm & PLUSMN; 0.4 mm vs. 4.5 mm & PLUSMN; 0.4 mm, respectively, P > 0.05) in the pivot-shift test, compared with the AM REC group. Conclusion: The central anatomic ACL reconstruction resulted in greater restriction of internal rotation than the anteromedial anatomic ACL reconstruction. Experimental Study on Cadaver.
