Tensile strength comparison between hamstring tendon, patellar tendon, quadriceps tendon and peroneus longus tendon: A cadaver research
Publication date: Available online 19 February 2019Source: Journal of Arthroscopy and Joint SurgeryAuthor(s): Krisna Y. Phatama, Mohamad Hidayat, Edi Mustamsir, Ananto Satya Pradana, Brian Dhananjaya, Surya Iman MuhammadAbstractKnee ligament injury is a frequent occurrence. Ligament reconstruction using tendon graft is the best therapy recommendation in the case of severe knee ligament injury. Tendon graft that is oftenly used are hamstring tendon, patellar tendon (BPTB), quadriceps tendon and peroneus longus tendon have been proposed as tendon graft donor. Biomechanically, tensile strength from tendon graft is the main fa...

Management of glenohumeral arthritis in the young patient – A systematic review
ConclusionSurgical intervention in young patients with glenohumeral degeneration carries higher risk of failure and subsequent need for potentially complex revision surgery. Therefore, non-operative measures should be exhausted and patients adequately counselled prior to proceeding to arthroplasty. (Source: Journal of Arthroscopy and Joint Surgery)

Two portal technique with antegrade suture passer and knotless anchors for Arthroscopic Bankart repair: A technical note
Publication date: Available online 2 January 2019Source: Journal of Arthroscopy and Joint SurgeryAuthor(s): Joong-Bae Seo, Kang Heo, Jong-Heon Yang, Jae-Sung YooAbstractArthroscopic Bankart repair is generally accepted as the choice of treatment for labrum and glenoid rim restoration. Recently, the antegrade suture passer has been one of the widely used devices in arthroscopic surgery. This device saves time by combining tissue grasping, suture passage, and suture retrieval into one convenient step. In addition, a knotless anchor is also used for a Bankart repair to prevent knot-induced articular cartilage injuries. Arthro...

Mid to long-term outcomes of the primary constrained condylar knee arthroplasty
ConclusionThe CCK implant is an acceptable option for a total knee arthroplasty which requires the extra stability not provided by a standard implant system. More studies with larger sample sizes, different populations and longer follow-up are needed to further evaluate outcomes in CCK implant recipients. (Source: Journal of Arthroscopy and Joint Surgery)

Is there a difference in treatment outcome for monomicrobial and polymicrobial periprosthetic joint infections? Systematic review and study quality analysis
ConclusionsQuantitative analysis demonstrated that although polymicrobial infections have been identified as a risk factor for failure after a PJI, they did not result in significantly worse outcomes after treatment. Though not statistically significant, polymicrobial PJI with gram negative organisms typically resulted in poorer outcomes as compared to PJI with gram positive organisms. Antibiotic coverage should be evaluated to ensure proper coverage of such gram-negative organisms.Level of evidenceSystematic Review of Level III Studies.
