- Trochlear dysplasia and patellar instability in patients with Down syndrome(2015) MOREIRA, Tiago Amaral Rebouças; DEMANGE, Marco Kawamura; GOBBI, Riccardo Gomes; MUSTACCHI, Zan; PÉCORA, José Ricardo; TÍRICO, Luis Eduardo Passarelli; CAMANHO, Gilberto LuisOBJECTIVE: To analyze occurrences of trochlear dysplasia in patients with Down syndrome in the presence and absence of femoropatellar instability. METHODS: Eleven knees with stable patellae and thirteen with unstable patellae in patients with Down syndrome were compared. Radiographs were produced to evaluate patellar height, trochlear angle and femoropatellar congruence angle. RESULTS: The prevalence ratio for a high patella between the unstable and the stable patients was 1.01 using the Insall-Salvati index and 0.68 using the Caton-Deschamps index. For an abnormal congruence angle, the prevalence ratio was 2.04. An increased congruence angle was only found in four cases, all presenting instability. CONCLUSIONS: Trochlear dysplasia was only found in cases of instability. The trochlear groove angle and the femoropatellar congruence angle correlated with the presence of patellar instability.
- Valor da avaliação radiográfica pré-operatória dos defeitos ósseos no joelho nas revisões de artroplastia(2012) IAMAGUCHI, Mauricio Masasi; HELITO, Camilo Partezani; GOBBI, Riccardo Gomes; DEMANGE, Marco Kawamura; TIRICO, Luiz Eduardo Passarelli; PECORA, Jose Ricardo; CAMANHO, Gilberto LuisOBJECTIVE: To evaluate the value of preoperative radiographic evaluations for total knee arthroplasty (TKA) revision. METHODS: Thirty-one knees that were operated between 2006 and 2008, in a consecutive series of cases of TKA revision surgery were analyzed retrospectively. THE FOLLOWING CRITERIA WERE EVALUATED: number of wedges or structured bone grafts used for filling the bone defects; locations of the wedges and bone grafts used; and mean thickness of the polyethylene used. The AORI classification was previously established based on preoperative radiographs, using preestablished criteria. After the analysis, the knees were divided into four groups (I, IIA, IIB and III). RESULTS: The mean number of wedges or grafts used in each knee progressively increased among the groups (group I: 1.33; group IIA: 2; group IIB: 4.33; and group III: 4.83) (P = 0.0012). The commonest locations were medial in the tibia and posteromedial in the femur. There were no statistically significant differences in the thickness of the polyethylene used. CONCLUSION: The AORI classification for bone defects in the knee, based on preoperative radiographs, showed a correlation with increasing need to use wedges and/or structured grafts in TKA revisions. However, up to 46% of the knees in groups I and IIA presented bone defects of up to 5 mm that were not diagnosed by means of preoperative radiographs.
- O uso do transplante osteocondral a fresco no tratamento das lesões osteocondrais do joelho(2012) TÍRICO, Luís Eduardo Passarelli; DEMANGE, Marco KawamuraTreatment of chondral and osteochondral knee lesions in young patients remains a challenge for orthopedic surgeons. The repair techniques currently available in Brazil, such as debridement, microfracture and autologous osteochondral transplantation are insufficient for treating large chondral and osteochondral lesions. Fresh homologous osteochondral transplants have been used in the knee joint in the United States with excellent results. This article had the aims of reviewing the basic science, indi cations, surgical techniques and possible complications and describing the technique of fresh homologous osteochondral transplantation in the knee joint, performed in the Institute of Orthopedics and Traumatology, Hospital das Clinicas, Univer sity of São Paulo.
- 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.
- Dor na ponta da haste após revisão de artroplastia total de joelho(2012) ALBINO, Rômulo Ballarin; SANTOS, Lívia Souza; GOBBI, Riccardo Gomes; IAMAGUCHI, Maurício; DEMANGE, Marco Kawamura; TIRICO, Luis Eduardo; PÉCORA, José RicardoOBJECTIVE: To correlate parameters of implants with incidence of pain. METHODS: 32 knees (31 patients) operated on between 2006 to 2008 in a serie of cases of TKA revision surgery were monitored for evidence of pain at the tip of the stem.In all we used uncemented stem Scorpio TS Total Knee® Revision System (Stryker®). Criteria assessed: pain in the leg or thigh without other causes, diameter and length of the nail; position of the rod in the medullary canal, intramedullary canal diameter. RESULTS: Mean age was 66.7 years and mean follow-up was 2.6 years.21,87% of patients reported leg pain, 9.37% thigh pain. The group of pacients with leg pain presented with shaft diameter 14.7 mm, length 80 mm in 71.42% and 155 mm in 28,58%, stem diameter/ intramedullary canal diameter average relation of 0,76, 42.8% had stem malalignment. The group without leg pain presented with shaft diameter 15.2 mm, length 80 mm in 68% and 155 mm in 32%, diameters average relation of 0.80, 20.8% had stem malalignment. The group with thigh pain presented with shaft diameter 18.3 mm, length 80 mm in 66.67% and 155 mm in 33,33%,diameters average relation of 0.75, 0% had stem malalignment The group without thigh pain presented with shaft diameter 16.56 mm, length 80 mm in 70.37% and 155 mm in 29,63%, diameters average relation of 0.79, 14,2% had stem malalignment. CONCLUSION: There was no association between the assessed criteria and pain in the tip of the stem.
- Fresh osteochondral knee allografts in Brazil with a minimum two-year follow-up(2017) TÍRICO, Luís Eduardo Passarelli; DEMANGE, Marco Kawamura; SANTOS, Luiz Augusto Ubirajara; PÉCORA, José Ricardo; CROCI, Alberto Tesconi; CAMANHO, Gilberto LuísABSTRACT OBJECTIVE: The present study aimed to report the results of the first series of cases of fresh ostechondral allografts in the knee joint in Brazil with a minimum follow-up of two years. METHODS: A protocol of procurement, harvesting, processing, and utilization of fresh osteochondral allografts in the knee joint was established, beginning with legislation modifications, graft harvesting techniques, immediate processing, storage of fresh grafts, and utilization of two surgical techniques of osteochondral transplantation. Eight patients were treated and followed-up for a minimum of two years. RESULTS: Patients were evaluated with subjective IKDC, KOOS, and modified Merle D'Aubigne and Postel questionnaires. Mean subjective IKDC score was 31.99 ± 13.4 preoperative and 81.26 ± 14.7 at the latest follow-up; preoperative KOOS score was 46.8 ± 20.9 and postoperative was 85.24 ± 13.9, indicating a significant improvement over time (p < 0.01). Mean modified Merle D'Aubigne-Postel score was 8.75 ± 2.25, preoperatively, and 16.1 ± 2.59 postoperatively. Friedman test for non-parametric samples demonstrated a significant improvement in postoperative scores (p < 0.01). CONCLUSION: The use of fresh osteochondral allografts in Brazil is a safe procedure, with good clinical results in the short- and medium-term for the treatment of osteochondral lesions greater than 4 cm2 in the knee joint.
