Background: Clinical trials investigating acetabular fractures are heterogeneous in their investigated outcomes and their corresponding measurements. Standardization may facilitate comparability and pooling of research results, which would lead to an increase in knowledge about the optimal treatment of acetabular fractures, resulting in long-term evidence-based treatment decisions and improvements in patient care. The aim of this systematic review is to identify the reported outcomes and their measurements from studies on treatments for acetabular fractures to develop a core outcome set which contains the most relevant outcome measures to be included in future studies. Methods: Studies published in English and German including patients aged 16 years and older, with a surgically treated acetabular fracture, will be included. Studies with nonsurgical treatment, pathologic fractures, polytraumatized patients, and patients younger than 16 years of age will be excluded because other outcomes may be of interest in these cases. Any prospective and retrospective study will be included. Systematic reviews will be excluded, but their included studies will be screened for eligibility. The literature will be searched on MEDLINE, CENTRAL, Web of Science, ClinicalTrials.gov, and WHO ICTRP. Risk of selective reporting of outcomes will be assessed using the Outcome Reporting Bias in Trials classification system. Heterogeneously defined outcomes that measure the same outcome will be grouped and subsequently categorized into outcome domains using the taxonomy of the Core Outcome Measures in Effectiveness Trials Initiative. Discussion: It is expected that a high number of studies will be included, and many outcomes will be identified using different definitions and measurement instruments. A limitation of this systematic review is that only previously investigated outcomes will be detected, thus disregarding potentially relevant outcomes.

- Abstract
Background: The current literature lacks recommendations regarding surgical approaches to best visualize and reduce Hoffa fractures. The aims of this study were to (1) define surgical corridors to the posterior portions of the lateral and medial femoral condyles and (2) compare the articular surface areas visible with different approaches. Methods: Eight fresh-frozen human cadaveric knees (6 male and 2 female donors; mean age, 68.2 ± 10.2 years) underwent dissection simulating 6 surgical approaches to the distal femur. The visible articular surface areas for each approach were marked using an electrocautery device and subsequently analyzed using image-processing software. The labeled areas of each femoral condyle were statistically compared. Results: At 30° of flexion, visualization of the posterior portions of the lateral and medial femoral condyles was not possible by lateral and medial parapatellar approaches, as only the anterior 29.4% ± 2.1% of the lateral femoral condyle and 25.6% ± 2.8% of the medial condyle were exposed. Visualization of the lateral femoral condyle was limited by the posterolateral ligamentous structures, hence a posterolateral approach only exposed its central (13.1% ± 1.3%) and posterior (12.4% ± 1.1%) portions. Posterolateral extension by an osteotomy of the lateral femoral epicondyle significantly improved the exposure to 53.4% ± 2.7% and, when combined with a Gerdy's tubercle osteotomy, to 70.9% ± 4.1% (p < 0.001). For the posteromedial approach, an arthrotomy between the anteromedial retinaculum and the superficial medial collateral ligament, and one between the posterior oblique ligament and the medial gastrocnemius tendon, allowed visualization of the central (13.5% ± 2.2%) and the posterior (14.6% ± 2.3%) portions of the medial femoral condyle, while a medial femoral epicondyle osteotomy significantly improved visualization to 66.1% ± 5.5% (p < 0.001). Conclusions: Visualization of the posterior portions of the femoral condyles is limited by the specific anatomy of each surgical corridor. Extension by osteotomy of the femoral epicondyles and Gerdy's tubercle significantly improved articular surface exposure of the femoral condyles. Clinical Relevance: Knowledge of the surgical approach-specific visualization of the articular surface of the femoral condyles might be helpful to properly reduce small Hoffa fragments.

COLLATERAL ligament , *DYNAMIC loads , *KNEE , *TENDONS ,EXTERNAL fixators - Abstract
Purpose: To investigate the forces on a medial collateral ligament (MCL) reconstruction (MCLR) relative to the valgus alignment of the knee. Methods: Eight fresh‐frozen human cadaveric knees were subjected to dynamic valgus loading at 400 N using a custom‐made kinematics rig. After resection of the superficial medial collateral ligament, a single‐bundle MCLR with a hamstring tendon autograft was performed. A medial opening wedge distal femoral osteotomy was performed and fixed with an external fixator to gradually adjust the alignment in 5° increments from 0° to 10° valgus. For each degree of valgus deformity, the resulting forces acting on the MCLR were measured through a force sensor and captured in 15° increments from 0° to 60° of knee flexion. Results: Irrespective of the degree of knee flexion, increasing valgus malalignment resulted in significantly increased forces acting on the MCLR compared to neutral alignment (p < 0.05). Dynamic loading at 5° valgus resulted in increased forces on the MCLR at all flexion angles ranging between 16.2 N and 18.5 N (p < 0.05 from 0° to 30°; p < 0.01 from 45° to 60°). A 10° valgus malalignment further increased the forces on the MCLR at all flexion angles ranging between 29.4 N and 40.0 N (p < 0.01 from 0° to 45°, p < 0.05 at 60°). Conclusion: Valgus malalignment of the knee caused increased forces acting on the reconstructed MCL. In cases of chronic medial instabilities accompanied by a valgus deformity ≥ 5°, a realigning osteotomy should be considered concomitantly to the MCLR to protect the graft and potentially reduce graft failures. Level of Evidence: Level III. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background: Concerns regarding the primary stability of early adjustable loop button (ALB) devices for cortical fixation of tendon grafts in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) have led to the development of new implant designs. Purpose: To evaluate biomechanical stability of recent ALB implants in comparison with a continuous loop button (CLB) device. Study Design: Controlled laboratory study. Methods: ACLR was performed in a porcine model (n = 40) using 2-strand porcine flexor tendons with a diameter of 8 mm. Three ALB devices (Infinity Button [ALB1 group]; Tightrope II RT [ALB2 group]; A-TACK [ALB3 group]) and 1 CLB device (FlippTack with polyethylene suture) were used for cortical tendon graft fixation. Cyclic loading (1000 cycles up to 250 N) with complete unloading were applied to the free end of the tendon graft using a uniaxial testing machine, followed by load to failure. Elongation, stiffness, yield load, and ultimate failure load were recorded and compared between the groups using a Kruskal-Wallis test with post hoc Dunn correction. Results: Elongation after 1000 cycles at 250 N was similar between groups (ALB1, 4.5 ± 0.7 mm; ALB2, 4.8 ± 0.8 mm; ALB3, 4.5 ± 0.6 mm; CLB, 4.5 ± 0.8 mm), as was load to failure (ALB1, 838 ± 109 N; ALB2, 930 ± 89 N; ALB3, 809 ± 103 N; CLB, 842 ± 80 N). Stiffness was significantly higher in the ALB1 group compared with the CLB group (262.3 ± 21.6 vs 229.3 ± 15.1 N/mm; P < .05). No significant difference was found between the 4 groups regarding yield load. Constructs failed either by rupture of the loop, breakage of the button, or rupture of the tendon. Conclusion: The tested third-generation ALB devices for cortical fixation in ACLR withstood cyclic loading with complete unloading without significant differences to a CLB device. Clinical Relevance: The third-generation ALB devices tested in the present study provided biomechanical stability comparable with that of a CLB device. Furthermore, ultimate failure loads of all tested implants exceeded the loads expected to occur in the postoperative period after ACLR. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background: Conflicting evidence has been reported regarding the biomechanical relevance of ramp lesions (RLs) on knee kinematics. Furthermore, the influence of the defect size of the RLs on anterior tibial translation (ATT) and external rotation (ER) is currently unknown. Purpose: To evaluate the influence of RL defect size on knee kinematics in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) deficiency and after simulated ACL reconstruction (sACLR). Study Design: Controlled laboratory study. Methods: Eight cadaveric knee specimens were tested in a 6 degrees of freedom robotic test setup. Force-controlled clinical laxity tests were performed with 200 N of axial compression in 0°, 30°, 60°, and 90° of flexion: 5 N·m internal rotation (IR)/ER torque, 134 N ATT force, and an anteromedial drawer test consisting of 134 N ATT force under 5 N·m ER torque. After determining the native knee kinematics, the ACL was cut at the tibial insertion, followed by a transosseous refixation to simulate a surgical repair or reconstruction (simulated ACL reconstruction; sACLR). An RL was sequentially created with a length of 1, 2, and 3 cm. Each state of the RL was evaluated in the ACL-deficient state and after sACLR. Results: In the ACL-deficient state, only an RL of 3 cm length resulted in a significant increase of ATT in 30° of flexion (mean difference 0.73 mm; 95% CI, 0.36-1.1 mm). After sACLR, an RL had no significant effect. When looking at ER, an RL significantly increased ER in full extension in the ACL-deficient state in 2 cm (mean difference 0.9°; 95% CI, 0.08°-1.74°) and 3 cm length (mean difference 1.9°; 95% CI, 0.57-3.25). Furthermore, a 3-cm RL significantly increased IR in 0° of flexion in the ACL-deficient state (mean difference 1.9°; 95% CI, 0.2°-3.6°). No effect of ramp lesions on rotation was found after sACLR. Conclusion: RLs result in a small increase in ATT, ER, and IR in ACL-deficient knees at early flexion angles, but not after sACLR. Clinical Relevance: Small RLs did not change time-zero knee kinematics and may, therefore, be left untreated, especially when the ACL is reconstructed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Background: Bone staples have been shown previously to be a viable modality for cortical tendon graft fixation in ligament knee surgery. However, soft tissue reactions have been reported, making implant removal necessary. Magnesium alloys are a promising material for biodegradable orthopaedic implants, with mechanical properties closely resembling those of human bone. Purpose: To compare the primary stability of a biodegradable bone staple prototype made from magnesium to bone staples made from metal in the cortical fixation of tendon grafts during knee surgery. Study Design: Controlled laboratory study. Methods: Primary stability of peripheral tendon graft fixation was assessed in a porcine model of medial collateral ligament reconstruction. Two commercially available metal bone staples (Richards fixation staple with spikes [Me1] and spiked ligament staple [Me2]) were compared with a magnesium bone staple prototype for soft tissue fixation. Primary stability was assessed using a uniaxial materials testing machine. Cyclic loading at 50 and 100 N was applied for 500 cycles each, followed by load-to-failure testing. Results: After 500 cycles at 50 N, elongation was 1.5 ± 0.5 mm in the Me1 group, 1.9 ± 0.5 mm in the Me2 group, and 1.8 ± 0.4 mm in the magnesium group. After 1000 cycles of loading (500 cycles at 50 N and 500 at 100 N), elongation was 3.6 ± 0.9 mm in the Me1 group, 3.5 ± 0.6 mm in the Me2 group, and 4.1 ± 1.0 mm in the magnesium group. No significant differences regarding elongation were found between the groups. Load to failure was 352 ± 115 N in the Me1 group, 373 ± 77 N in the Me2 group, and 449 ± 92 N in the magnesium group, with no significant difference between the groups. Conclusion: In this study, the magnesium bone staples provided appropriate time-zero biomechanical primary stability in comparison with metal bone staples and may therefore be a feasible alternative for cortical fixation of tendon grafts in knee surgery. Clinical Relevance: The biodegradability of magnesium bone staples would eliminate the need for later implant removal. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

- Abstract
Purpose Methods Results Conclusion Level of Evidence The purpose of this study was to analyse the influence of coronal lower limb alignment on collateral ligament strain.Twelve fresh‐frozen human cadaveric knees were used. Long‐leg standing radiographs were obtained to assess lower limb alignment. Specimens were axially loaded in a custom‐made kinematics rig with 200 and 400 N, and dynamic varus/valgus angulation was simulated in 0°, 30°, and 60° of knee flexion. The changes in varus/valgus angulation and strain within different fibre regions of the collateral ligaments were captured using a three‐dimensional optical measuring system to examine the axis‐dependent strain behaviour of the superficial medial collateral ligament (sMCL) and lateral collateral ligament (LCL) at intervals of 2°.The LCL and sMCL were exposed to the highest strain values at full extension (
p < 0.001). Regardless of flexion angle and extent of axial loading, the ligament strain showed a strong and linear association with varus (all Pearson'sr ≥ 0.98;p < 0.001) and valgus angulation (all Pearson'sr ≥ −0.97;p < 0.01). At full extension and 400 N of axial loading, the anterior and posterior LCL fibres exceeded 4% ligament strain at 3.9° and 4.0° of varus, while the sMCL showed corresponding strain values of more than 4% at a valgus angle of 6.8°, 5.4° and 4.9° for its anterior, middle and posterior fibres, respectively.The strain within the native LCL and sMCL was linearly related to coronal lower limb alignment. Strain levels associated with potential ultrastructural damages to the ligaments of more than 4% were observed at 4° of varus and about 5° of valgus malalignment, respectively. When reconstructing the collateral ligaments, an additional realigning osteotomy should be considered in cases of chronic instability with a coronal malalignment exceeding 4°–5° to protect the graft and potentially reduce failures.There is no level of evidence as this study was an experimental laboratory study.

- Abstract
Background and Purpose: Recommendations regarding fragment-size-dependent screw fixation trajectory for coronal plane fractures of the posterior femoral condyles (Hoffa fractures) are lacking. The aim of this study was to compare the biomechanical properties of anteroposterior (AP) and crossed posteroanterior (PA) screw fixations across differently sized Hoffa fractures on human cadaveric femora., Patients and Methods: 4 different sizes of lateral Hoffa fractures (n = 12 x 4) were created in 48 distal human femora according to the Letenneur classification: (i) type I, (ii) type IIa, (ii) type IIb, and (iv) type IIc. Based on bone mineral density (BMD), specimens were assigned to the 4 fracture clusters and each cluster was further assigned to fixation with either AP (n = 6) or crossed PA screws (n = 6) to ensure homogeneity of BMD values and comparability between the different test conditions. All specimens were biomechanically tested under progressively increasing cyclic loading until failure, capturing the interfragmentary movements via motion tracking., Results: For Letenneur type I fractures, kilocycles to failure (mean difference [∆] 2.1, 95% confidence interval [CI] -1.3 to 5.5), failure load (∆ 105 N, CI -83 to 293), axial displacement (∆ 0.3 mm, CI -0.8 to 1.3), and fragment rotation (∆ 0.5°, CI -3.2 to 2.1) over 5.0 kilocycles did not differ significantly between the 2 screw trajectories. For each separate subtype of Letenneur type II fractures, fixation with crossed PA screws resulted in significantly higher kilocycles to failure (∆ 6.7, CI 3.3-10.1 to ∆ 8.9, CI 5.5-12.3) and failure load (∆ 275 N, CI 87-463 to ∆ 438, CI 250-626), as well as, less axial displacement from 3.0 kilocycles onwards (∆ 0.4°, CI 0.03-0.7 to ∆ 0.5°, CI 0.01-0.9) compared with AP screw fixation., Conclusion: Irrespective of the size of Letenneur type II fractures, crossed PA screw fixation provided greater biomechanical stability than AP-configured screws, whereas both screw fixation techniques demonstrated comparable biomechanical competence for Letenneur type I fractures. Fragment-size-dependent treatment strategies might be helpful to determine not only the screw configuration but also the surgical approach.

- Abstract
Different medial structures are responsible for restraining valgus rotation, external rotation, and anteromedial rotation. When injured this can result in various degrees of isolated and combined instabilities. In contrast to earlier speculation, the posterior oblique ligament (POL) is no longer considered to be the main stabilizer of anteromedial rotatory instability (AMRI). Acute proximal medial ruptures are typically managed conservatively with very good clinical results. Conversely, acute distal ruptures usually require a surgical intervention. Chronic instabilities mostly occur in combination with instabilities of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). The clinical examination is a particularly important component in these cases to determine the indications for surgery for an additional medial reconstruction. In cases of severe medial and anteromedial instabilities, surgical treatment should be considered. Biomechanically, a combined medial and anteromedial reconstruction appears to be superior to other reconstruction methods; however, there is currently a lack of clinical studies to confirm this biomechanical advantage., (© 2023.
