- 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.
- Anatomical study on the anterolateral ligament of the knee(2013) HELITO, Camilo Partezani; MIYAHARA, Helder de Souza; BONADIO, Marcelo Batista; TIRICO, Luis Eduardo Passareli; GOBBI, Riccardo Gomes; DEMANGE, Marco Kawamura; ANGELINI, Fabio Janson; PECORA, Jose Ricardo; CAMANHO, Gilberto LuisOBJECTIVE: Describe the knee anterolateral ligament (ALL) and establish its anatomical marks of origin and insertion. METHODS: Dissection of the anterolateral aspect of the knee was performed in six cadavers. After isolation of the ALL, its lenght, width and thickness were measured as its places of origin and insertion. The ALL origin was documented in relation to the lateral collateral ligament (LCL) origin and the insertion was documented in relation to the Gerdy tubercle, fibullar head and lateral meniscus. After the first two dissections, the ligament was removed and sent to histologycal analysis. RESULTS: The ALL was clearly identified in all knees. Its origin in the lateral epycondile was on average 0.5 mm distal and 2.5 mm anterior to the LCL. In the tibia, two insertions were observed, one in the lateral meniscus and another in the proximal tibia, about 4.5 mm distal to the articular cartilage, between the Gerdy tubercle and the fibullar head. The average measures obtained were: 35.1 mm lenght, 6.8 mm width and 2.6 mm thickness. In the ligament histological analysis, dense connective tissue was observed. CONCLUSION: The ALL is a constant structure in the knee anterolateral region. Its origin is anterior and distal to the LCL origin. In the tibia, it has two insertions, one in the lateral meniscus and another in the proximal tibia between the Gerdy tubercle and the fibullar head.
- Medial Closing-Wedge Distal Femoral Osteotomy: Fixation With Proximal Tibial Locking Plate(2015) TIRICO, Luis Eduardo Passarelli; DEMANGE, Marco Kawamura; BONADIO, Marcelo Batista; HELITO, Camilo Partezani; GOBBI, Riccardo Gomes; PECORA, Jose RicardoDistal femoral varus osteotomy is a well-established procedure for the treatment of lateral compartment cartilage lesions and degenerative disease, correcting limb alignment and decreasing the progression of the pathology. Surgical techniques can be performed with a lateral opening-wedge or medial closing-wedge correction of the deformity. Fixation methods for lateral opening-wedge osteotomies are widely available, and there are various types of implants that can be used for fixation. However, there are currently only a few options of implants for fixation of a medial closing-wedge osteotomy on the market. This report describes a medial, supracondylar, V-shaped, closing-wedge distal femoral osteotomy using a locked anterolateral proximal tibial locking plate that fits anatomically to the medial side of the distal femur. This is a great option as a stable implant for a medial closing-wedge distal femoral osteotomy.
