TL;DR: Long read length ultra-deep resequencing-by-synthesis to interrogate regions of the mtDNA genome from related and unrelated individuals at unprecedented resolution shows that very low-level heteroplasmic variance is present in all tested healthy individuals, and is likely to be due to both inherited and somatic single base substitutions.
Journal ArticleDOI
A five-year comparison of patellar tendon versus four-strand hamstring tendon autograft for arthroscopic reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament.
TL;DR: Arthroscopic reconstruction with either graft results in a similar surgical outcome, reliably restoring knee stability over a 5-year period; however, patients with patellar tendon grafts are at greater risk of developing early signs of osteoarthritis.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Location of Femoral Attachment and Length Change Patterns Resulting From Anatomic and Nonanatomic Attachments
TL;DR: The anatomic femoral and patellar MPFL graft attachments are reported, with confirmation of the reproducibility of their location and resulting kinematic behavior, and an identifiable radiographic point for femoral tunnel position is suggested for use intraoperatively.
Journal ArticleDOI
Center and surgeon volume influence the revision rate following unicondylar knee replacement: an analysis of 23,400 medial cemented unicondylar knee replacements.
TL;DR: High-volume centers and surgeons specializing in such procedures had superior results following unicondylar knee replacement compared with their low-volume counterparts, and a minimum of thirteen such procedures per year should be undertaken to achieve results comparable with the high-volume operators.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Effect of Femoral Tunnel Position and Graft Tension on Patellar Contact Mechanics and Kinematics After Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction
TL;DR: The importance of a correct femoral tunnel position and graft tensioning in restoring normal patellofemoral joint kinematics and articular cartilage contact stresses is evident and may lead to adverse outcomes such as early degenerative joint changes or pain if occurring in a clinical population.
