- Combined Reconstruction of the Anterolateral Ligament in Patients With Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injury and Ligamentous Hyperlaxity Leads to Better Clinical Stability and a Lower Failure Rate Than Isolated Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction(2019) HELITO, Camilo Partezani; SOBRADO, Marcel Faraco; GIGLIO, Pedro Nogueira; BONADIO, Marcelo Batista; PECORA, Jose Ricardo; CAMANHO, Gilberto Luis; DEMANGE, Marco KawamuraPurpose: To compare functional outcomes, residual instability, and rupture rates in patients with ligamentous hyperlaxity undergoing isolated anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction or combined ACL and anterolateral ligament (ALL) reconstruction. Methods: Two groups of patients were evaluated and compared retrospectively. Both groups consisted of patients with ACL injuries and associated ligamentous hyperlaxity, defined based on the modified Beighton scale with a minimum score of 5. Group 1 patients underwent anatomical ACL reconstruction, and group 2 patients underwent anatomical ACL reconstruction combined with ALL reconstruction. Group 1 consisted of historical controls. The presence of associated meniscal injury, subjective International Knee Documentation Committee and Lysholm functional scores, KT-1000 measurements, the presence of a residual pivot-shift, and the graft rupture rate were evaluated. The study was performed at University of Sao Paulo in Brazil. Results: Ninety patients undergoing ACL reconstruction with ligamentous hyperlaxity were evaluated. The mean follow up was 29.6 +/- 6.2 months for group 1 and 28.1 +/- 4.2 months for group 2 (P = .51). No significant differences were found between the groups regarding Beighton scale, gender, the duration of injury before reconstruction, follow-up time, preoperative instability, or associated meniscal injuries. The mean age was 29.9 +/- 8.1 years in group 1 and 27.0 +/- 9.1 years in group 2 (P = .017). In the final evaluation, group 2 patients showed better anteroposterior clinical stability as evaluated by KT-1000 arthrometry (P = .02), better rotational stability as evaluated by the pivot-shift test (P = .03) and a lower reconstruction failure rate (21.7% [group 1] vs 3.3% [group 2]; P = .03). Clinical evaluations of postoperative functional scales showed no differences between the 2 groups (P = .27 for International Knee Documentation Committee; P = .41 for Lysholm). Conclusions: Combined ACL and ALL reconstruction in patients with ligamentous hyperlaxity resulted in a lower failure rate and improved knee stability parameters compared to isolated ACL reconstruction. No differences were found in the functional scales.
- Clinical Outcomes of Posterolateral Complex Reconstruction Performed with a Single Femoral Tunnel(2021) HELITO, Camilo Partezani; SOBRADO, Marcel Faraco; GIGLIO, Pedro Nogueira; BONADIO, Marcelo Batista; PECORA, Jose Ricardo; GOBBI, Riccardo Gomes; CAMANHO, Gilberto Luis; ANGELINI, Fabio JansonThe objective of this study is to report the functional outcomes, complications, and reconstruction failure rate of patients undergoing posterolateral complex reconstruction with a single femoral tunnel technique. Patients with posterolateral complex injuries associated with injury of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), posterior cruciate ligament (PCL), or both undergoing surgical treatment with the single femoral tunnel technique were included in the study. The International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) and Lysholm's scales were evaluated, in addition to age, gender, time between trauma and surgery, trauma type, range of motion (ROM) restrictions, peroneal nerve injury, and reconstruction failure. Sixty-six patients were included. Eighteen underwent ACL and posterolateral complex (PLC) reconstruction (group 1), 24 underwent ACL, PCL, and PLC reconstruction (group 2), and 24 underwent PCL and PLC reconstruction (group 3). The mean follow-up was 63 months. The subjective IKDC was 83.7 +/- 14.6 for group 1, 74.3 +/- 12.6 for group 2, and 66.3 +/- 16.0 for group 3 ( p <0.001). The Lysholm's score was 87.112.8 for group 1, 79.5 +/- 15.0 for group 2, and 77.7 +/- 15.2 for group 3 ( p =0.042). There were six reconstruction failures among the patients (9.1%) with no differences among the groups ( p =0.368). Female gender and reconstruction failure were associated with worse outcomes. Patients undergoing reconstruction of PLC structures with the single femoral tunnel technique achieved good functional outcomes and a failure rate similar to literature. Patients undergoing only combined ACL reconstruction showed better outcomes than patients undergoing combined PCL reconstruction. Female gender was associated with a worse functional outcome irrespective of the injury type.
- Comparison of Floseal (R) and Tranexamic Acid for Bleeding Control after Total Knee Arthroplasty: a Prospective Randomized Study(2019) HELITO, Camilo Partezani; BONADIO, Marcelo Batista; SOBRADO, Marcel Faraco; GIGLIO, Pedro Nogueira; PECORA, Jose Ricardo; CAMANHO, Gilberto Luis; DEMANGE, Marco KawamuraOBJECTIVE: Tranexamic acid (TXA) and the hemostatic agent Floseal (R) have already been used to minimize bleeding during total knee arthroplasty (TKA). METHODS: We conducted a prospective, randomized study of 90 patients with indications for TKA. Following inclusion, the participants were randomly allocated in blocks to the following 3 groups: control, Floseal (R) and TXA. Bleeding parameters, including decreases in hemoglobin (Hb), drain output, number of blood transfusions and complications, were assessed. ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT02152917. RESULTS: The mean decrease in Hb was highest in the control group (4.81 +/- 1.09 g/dL), followed by the Floseal (R) (3.5 +/- 1.03 g/dL) and TXA (3.03 +/- 1.2 g/dL) groups. The Floseal (R) and TXA groups did not differ, and both performed better than the control group. The mean total drain output was 901.3 +/- 695.7 mL in the control group, 546.5 +/- 543.5 mL in the TXA group and 331.2 +/- 278.7 mL in the Floseal (R) group. Both TXA and Floseal (R) had significantly less output than the control group, and Floseal (R) had significantly less output than TXA. The number of blood transfusions was very small in all 3 groups. CONCLUSION: The use of TXA or Floseal (R) was associated with less blood loss than that of the control group among patients undergoing primary TKA, as measured both directly (intraoperative bleeding + drainage) and on the basis of a decrease in Hb, without differences in the rate of complications. TXA and Floseal (R) showed similar decreases in Hb and total measured blood loss, but the drain output was smaller in the Floseal (R) group.
- Knee arthroplasty with rotating-hinge implant: an option for complex primary cases and revisions(2018) HELITO, Camilo Partezani; GIGLIO, Pedro Nogueira; CAVALHEIRO, Camila Maftoum; GOBBI, Riccardo Gomes; DEMANGE, Marco Kawamura; CAMANHO, Gilberto LuisABSTRACT Objective: To present the indications, technical aspects, and initial results of the first cases using Endo-Model™ implants in Brazil. Methods: A prospective study was conducted. It included nine patients submitted to a total knee arthroplasty, of which six were primary and three were revisions, using exclusively the Endo-Model™ implant. These patients were followed for an average of 12 months and evaluated with functional scores, such as the Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS), Knee Society Score (KSS), and visual analog pain scale (VAS). Results: There were statistically significant improvements in all scores evaluated in every patient. Only one complication occurred postoperatively (apraxia of the peroneal nerve) and did not require surgery revision. Conclusion: The use of a rotating-hinge implant for knee arthroplasty is a new option for complex cases with severe instability in Brazil; the initial results are satisfactory.
- 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.
- Posterolateral reconstruction combined with one-stage tibial valgus osteotomy: Technical considerations and functional results(2019) HELITO, Camilo Partezani; SOBRADO, Marcel Faraco; GIGLIO, Pedro Nogueira; BONADIO, Marcelo Batista; DEMANGE, Marco Kawamura; PECORA, Jose Ricardo; CAMANHO, Gilberto Luis; ANGELINI, Fabio JansonBackground: To report the functional outcomes and complications from reconstructing the knee posterolateral complex (PLC), associated with one-stage opening-wedge tibial valgus osteotomy, and discuss the technical feasibility of this procedure. Methods: Five patients with chronic PLC injuries and varus deviation of the mechanical axis, associated with central pivot injuries or not, underwent medial opening-wedge high tibial osteotomy combined with PLC reconstruction. The lateral collateral ligament, popliteal tendon, and popliteofibular ligament were reconstructed using a single femoral tunnel. Patients were assessed on physical examination, range-of-motion and functional scales, and radiographs. The International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) score, Lysholm score, and Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome score (KOOS) were determined. Results: Five patients were evaluated: four presented with central pivot injury, and one had an isolated PLC injury. The mean time between injury and surgery was 40 +/- 6.5 months (+/- is indicating standard deviation value). Four patients had minimal residual instability on physical examination, with a lateral opening at varus stress of +/- 3 + at 30 degrees flexion. The means of the IKDC score, Lysholm score, and KOOS were 67.8 +/- 9.2, 83.0 +/- 9.3, and 79.2 +/- 5.9, respectively. All patients showed satisfactory consolidation of osteotomy in 2.6 +/- 0.9 months. Conclusions: The results of this series indicate that one-stage PLC ligament reconstruction associated with medial opening-wedge valgus osteotomy is feasible and shows satisfactory functional results with a low rate of complications. A one-stage procedure might be indicated for young patients with high functionality and more pronounced posterolateral instabilities.
- The knee in congenital femoral deficiency and its implication in limb lengthening: a systematic review(2021) LEITE, Chilan Bou Ghosson; GRANGEIRO, Patricia Moreno; MUNHOZ, Diego Ubrig; GIGLIO, Pedro Nogueira; CAMANHO, Gilberto Luis; GOBBI, Riccardo GomesCongenital femoral deficiency (CFD) is a rare disorder with several limb anomalies including limb shortening and knee cruciate ligament dysplasia. Limb lengthening is usually performed to correct lower limb discrepancy. However, complications, such as knee subluxation/dislocation, can occur during this treatment. Here, we explore CFD knee abnormalities and knee dislocation during limb elongation, discussing when and whether knee ligament reconstruction prior to the lengthening would be necessary to reduce the risk of knee dislocation. There is not enough support in the literature for the routine reconstruction of cruciate ligaments in CFD patients. Of note, in cases of severe anteroposterior or posterolateral rotatory instability, cruciate ligament reconstruction might be considered to decrease the risk of knee subluxation/dislocation during the lengthening treatment.
- Tibial Tubercle Osteotomy With Distalization Is a Safe and Effective Procedure for Patients With Patella Alta and Patellar Instability(2021) LEITE, Chilan B. G.; SANTOS, Tarsis P.; GIGLIO, Pedro N.; PECORA, Jose R.; CAMANHO, Gilberto L.; GOBBI, Riccardo G.Background: Tibial tubercle osteotomy with concomitant distalization for the treatment of patellar instability remains controversial, as it may cause anterior knee pain and chondral degeneration. Purpose: To evaluate radiographic, clinical, and functional outcomes in patients who had patellar instability with patella alta and underwent tibial tubercle osteotomy with distalization (TTO-d) as well as medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction. Study Design: Case series; Level of evidence, 4. Methods: Included in this study were 25 patients (31 cases) (mean age at surgery, 28.7 years; range, 14-33 years) with patellar instability and patella alta who underwent TTO-d with minimum 1-year follow-up. The Caton-Deschamps index (CDI), tibial tubercle-trochlear groove (TT-TG) distance, and amount of distalization were assessed. Clinical and functional variables included J-sign, anterior knee pain, apprehension test, Tegner activity level, and Kujala score. Results: The mean follow-up period was 2.62 years. The mean TT-TG was 16.15 mm (range, 7-24 mm); the mean CDI changed from 1.37 (1.25-1.7) preoperatively to 1.02 (0.9-1.12) postoperatively (P = .001); and the mean amount of tibial tubercle distalization was 8.80 mm (range, 4-16 mm). Lateral release (22 cases; 71.0%), medialization of tibial tubercle (17 cases; 54.8%), and autologous chondrocyte implantation (4 cases; 12.9%) were other associated procedures. The J-sign improved in 30 cases (96.8%; P = .001), and there was a complete resolution of anterior knee pain in 22 cases (71.0%; P = .001). An exploratory analysis showed that patellar cartilage defect severity was correlated with persistent pain (P = .005). The apprehension test became negative in all cases (P = .001). The median Kujala score increased from 52 to 77 (P = .001), and the median Tegner activity level improved from 3 to 4 (P = .001). No cases of osteotomy nonunion were reported. One case (3.2%) of patellar instability recurrence and 3 cases (6.5%) with painful hardware were observed. Conclusion: TTO-d resulted in good radiographic, clinical, and functional outcomes providing proper patellar stability to patients with patella alta. TTO-d appears to be a safe and efficient procedure with low complication rates, providing an additional tool for the personalized treatment of patellar instability.
- Combined reconstruction of the anterolateral ligament in chronic ACL injuries leads to better clinical outcomes than isolated ACL reconstruction(2018) HELITO, Camilo Partezani; CAMARGO, Danilo Bordini; SOBRADO, Marcel Faraco; BONADIO, Marcelo Batista; GIGLIO, Pedro Nogueira; PECORA, Jose Ricardo; CAMANHO, Gilberto Luis; DEMANGE, Marco KawamuraPurpose To evaluate the results of combined anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and anterolateral ligament (ALL) reconstruction in patients with chronic ACL injury. It was hypothesized that patients who underwent combined ACL and ALL reconstruction would exhibit less residual laxity and better clinical outcomes. Methods Two groups of patients were evaluated and compared retrospectively. Both groups consisted only of patients with chronic (more than 12 months) ACL injuries. Patients in group 1 underwent anatomical intra-articular reconstruction of the ACL and patients in group 2 underwent anatomic intra-articular ACL reconstruction combined with ALL reconstruction. The presence of associated meniscal injury, the subjective International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) and Lysholm functional outcome scores in the postoperative period, KT-1000 evaluation, the presence of residual pivot shift and graft rupture rate were evaluated. Results One hundred and one patients who underwent reconstruction of chronic ACL injuries were evaluated. The median follow-up was 26 (24-29) months for group 1 and 25 (24-28) months for group 2. There were no significant differences between groups regarding gender, age, duration of injury until reconstruction, follow-up time or presence of associated meniscal injuries in the preoperative period. Regarding functional outcome scores, patients in group 2 presented better results on both the IKDC (p = 0.0013) and the Lysholm (p < 0.0001) evaluations. In addition, patients in group 2 had better KT-1000 evaluation (p = 0.048) and a lower pivot shift rate at physical examination, presenting only 9.1% positivity versus 35.3% in the isolated ACL reconstruction (p = 0.011). Regarding re-ruptures, group 1 presented 5 (7.3%) cases, and group 2 presented no cases. Conclusion The combined ACL and ALL reconstruction in patients with chronic ACL injury is an effective and safety solution and leads to good functional outcomes with no increase in complication rate. The clinical relevance of this finding is the possibility to indicate this type of procedure when patients present with more than 12 months after injury for surgery.
- Anatomical Risk Factors for Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injury Are Not Important As Patellar Instability Risk Factors in Patients with Acute Knee Injury(2022) GOBBI, Riccardo Gomes; VIDEIRA, Livia Dau; SANTOS, Anderson Albuquerque dos; SARUHASHI, Marcello Barni; LUCARINI, Bruno Romano; FERNANDES, Renan Jose Rodrigues; GIGLIO, Pedro Nogueira; PECORA, Jose Ricardo; CAMANHO, Gilberto Luis; HINCKEL, Betina BremerTo compare in magnetic resonance imaging the anatomical risk factors for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury and patellar dislocation among patients who suffered acute knee injury, 105 patients with acute knee injury resulting in 38 patellar dislocations (patella group), 35 ACL injuries (ACL group), and 32 meniscus or medial collateral ligament injuries (control group) were included. These groups were compared for risk factors for patellar dislocation (patellar height, trochlear dysplasia, and quadriceps angle of action) and for ACL injury (intercondylar width, posterior inclination of tibial plateaus, and depth of the medial plateau). Univariate analysis found statistically significant differences ( p <0.05) between the patella and ACL groups in patellar height (Caton-Deschamps [CD] 1.23 vs. 1.07), trochlear facet asymmetry (55 vs. 68%), PTTG (13.08 vs. 8.01mm), and the patellar tip and trochlear groove (PTTG) angle (29.5 vs. 13.71 degrees). The patella group also differed from control in medial plateau inclination (4.8 vs. 1.87 degrees), patellar height (CD 1.23 vs 1.08), trochlear facet asymmetry (55 vs. 69%), lateral trochlear inclination (17.11 vs. 20.65 degrees), trochlear depth (4.1 vs. 6.05mm), PTTG (13.08 vs. 9.85mm), and the PTTG angle (29.5 vs. 17.88 degrees). The ACL and control groups were similar in all measures. Multivariate analysis found the following significant determinants between the Patella and Control groups: patellar height (CD index, odds ratio [OR]: 80.13, p =0.015), trochlear anatomy (asymmetry of facets M/L, OR: 1.06, p =0.031) and quadriceps action angle (PTTG angle, OR: 1.09, p =0.016); between the ACL and control groups: PTTG angle (OR: 0.936, p =0.04) and female gender (OR: 3.876, p =0.032); and between the patella and ACL groups, the CD index (OR: 67.62, p =0.026), asymmetry of the M/L facets (OR: 1.07, p =0.011) and PTTG angle (OR: 1.16, p <0.001). In conclusion, in patients with acute knee injury, the anatomical factors patellar height, trochlear dysplasia, and quadriceps angle of action were related to the occurrence of patellar dislocation. None of the anatomical factors studied was related to the occurrence of anterior cruciate ligament injury.
