Clinical outcome of meniscus repair for isolated meniscus tear in athletes
Conclusion In our expanded repair indication for isolated meniscus repair for athletes, the rate of satisfactory return to sports was 91.3% in total (88.9% for the medial meniscus group; 92.9% for the lateral meniscus group). During the follow-up period ranging from 12 to 33 months (mean, 19.8 months), re-tear of the repaired site was encountered in 4 of the 46 knees (8.7%).

Regression modelling combining MRI measurements and patient anthropometry for patient screening and prediction of graft diameter in hamstring autograft arthroscopic ACL reconstruction
Conclusions An integrated method for assessing patient risk of producing a diminutive graft diameter and planning augmentation in select cases has been presented. The present findings describe a validated predictive model that builds on previous univariable analyses. Further investigation of larger samples, including factors associated with graft preparation, is required to improve model accuracy for routine clinical application.

Optimisation of platelet concentrates therapy: Composition, localisation, and duration of action
Publication date: January 2017 Source:Asia-Pacific Journal of Sports Medicine, Arthroscopy, Rehabilitation and Technology, Volume 7 Author(s): Yuk-Lin Yung, Sai-Chuen Fu, Yau-Chuk Cheuk, Ling Qin, Michael Tim-Yun Ong, Kai-Ming Chan, Patrick Shu-Hang Yung Platelet concentrates (PC) generally refers to a group of products that are prepared from autologous blood intended to enhance healing activities. PC therapy is now very popular in treating musculoskeletal injuries; however, inconsistent clinical results urge the need to understand the working mechanism of PC. It is generally believed that the platelet-derived bio...

Characteristics of elongated and ruptured anterior cruciate ligament grafts: An analysis of 21 consecutive revision cases
Conclusion The location of the original femoral tunnel was more proximal in patients with elongated grafts than in those with ruptured grafts. Different bone tunnel position from native ACL might lead to graft elongation. (Source: Asia-Pacific Journal of Sports Medicine, Arthroscopy, Rehabilitation and Technology)

Accuracy of magnetic resonance imaging in diagnosing lateral ankle ligament injuries: A comparative study with surgical findings and timings of scans
Conclusion MRI is accurate in diagnosing ATFL injuries. It is specific but not sensitive for CFL tears. The accuracy is higher in the acute setting of 3 months or less from time of injury to MRI. (Source: Asia-Pacific Journal of Sports Medicine, Arthroscopy, Rehabilitation and Technology)

Shorter recovery can be achieved from using walking boot after operative treatment of an ankle fracture
Conclusion Patients who used WBs showed a significantly faster recovery. WBs have an adjustable heel lift that allows users to change the ankle position slightly plantarflexed that helps walking in a postoperative swollen ankle. WBs are easy to slip on, and it is easy to adjust the ankle position in conformity with swelling so that the least painful position could be maintained during walking. WBs have good fixity to allow immediate weight-bearing postoperatively, and there were no cases with loss of reduction postoperatively. The Rocker bottom design minimises the sagittal plane motion in the specific joint of the foot, w...

Anterior cruciate ligament remnant and its values for preservation
Publication date: January 2017 Source:Asia-Pacific Journal of Sports Medicine, Arthroscopy, Rehabilitation and Technology, Volume 7 Author(s): Takeshi Muneta, Hideyuki Koga Controversy surrounds the remnant-preserving anterior cruciate ligament surgery. Advantages of remnant preservation have been reported in regard to better healing and knee function, although no consensus has been reached. This review article discussed the value and meaning of anterior cruciate ligament remnant preservation in several sections such as effects on healing, remnant classification, biomechanical evaluation, relation to proprioception, an...
