Sex- and Age-Specific Analysis of Mountain Biking Injuries: A 10-Year Review of National Injury Data
Mountain biking (MTB) is a quickly growing sport, with many athletes sustaining high-impact injuries. Current literature has not analyzed the most recent MTB-related national emergency department (ED) injury data.
Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Basics: Quadriceps Tendon (All-Soft Tissue) Autograft Preparation-Part 2
Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with quadriceps tendon autograft is a reliable graft option that has recently increased in use. Varying harvesting and graft preparation techniques available and improved technology and implant design continue to make quadricep tendon preparation more efficient and reproducible.
Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Basics: Quadriceps Tendon (All-Soft Tissue) Autograft Harvest-Part 1
Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with quadriceps tendon autograft has become increasingly popular for primary and revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction surgery. Although there are a variety of techniques available for performing quadriceps tendon autograft harvest for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, a minimally invasive, all-soft tissue harvest technique can result in a reproducible, reliable graft while minimizing donor-site morbidity.
Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction With Concomitant Meniscal Repair: Is Graft Choice Predictive of Meniscal Repair Success?
When meniscal repair is performed during anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction (ACLR), the effect of ACL graft type on meniscal repair outcomes is unclear.
