The most common injury sustained to the ankle ligaments is a result of inversion of the foot. This mechanism results in injury to the anterior talofibular ligament alone or in conjunction with the calcaneofibular ligament and posterior talofibular ligament. Patients experiencing recurrent ankle sprains despite nonoperative measures often require surgical management. Recent focus has been on augmentation procedures to improve the stability of a lateral ankle ligament repair by protecting it during the healing phase and supporting early mobilization. This article describes, with video illustration, anterior talofibular ligament repair with suture tape augmentation.Physical examination in the presence of a multiligament knee injury can be complex and challenging. Hence, stress radiography is a useful and inexpensive tool that is widely used in the assessment of this type of injury. It guarantees an objective analysis of the magnitude of knee instability, which may reduce the observer's interpretation bias in relation to the physical examination. However, for the radiographic analysis to be reproducible, it is necessary to standardize the technique to evaluate each of the main knee ligaments. This article aims to describe in detail how to perform stress radiography to assess the sufficiency of the posterior cruciate ligament and collateral ligaments in the context of a multiligament injury.Difficulties in graft harvesting of the hamstring have been the topic of many studies. These difficulties are related to the aponeurotic or fibrous attachments of the hamstrings with the medial head of the gastrocnemius muscle, soleus muscle, and leg fascia. Freeing the graft from these attachments is important because insufficient release prior to stripper insertion can lead to premature transection or amputation. We describe a reliable intraoperative physical examination sign to help understand the sufficient amount by which a tendon graft needs to be released prior to stripper insertion. The presence of the motionless gastrocnemius ("motionless gastroc") phenomenon is used in our clinic as a sign that the grafts have been sufficiently freed and that a tendon stripper can be used without fear of transection or graft amputation.Hip arthroscopy has been increasingly used to treat labral tears and cam and pincer lesions found in femoroacetabular impingement. Although the classic impingement with cam deformity at the proximal femoral anterolateral quadrant is most common, there has been evidence of cam impingement extension to the anteromedial and posterior quadrants of the proximal femur. Posterior cam decompression carries a theoretical risk of vascular insult and subsequent osteonecrosis, which have led investigators to approach these posterior lesions through an open surgical correction. PP242 clinical trial Recent improvements have led to the development of pre-bent burs that allow for bonier resection flexibility. Here, we report on an arthroscopic posterior cam decompression using the traditional anterior portals and curved hip burs via a figure-of-four positioning technique.Anterior shoulder dislocations commonly occur in the young, athletic population. The mechanism of dislocation occurs when the shoulder is placed in an abducted, externally rotated position while a forceful anterior moment is applied to the humerus. This position, combined with the force applied, results in an anterior and inferiorly directed dislocation of the humeral head away from the glenoid. Due to the limited stretching capacity of the glenohumeral capsule and associated glenohumeral ligaments, the force of the traumatic dislocation overcomes the tensile strength of these ligaments, resulting in a tear. Although the injury more commonly results in an avulsion of the anteroinferior capsulolabral complex from the glenoid, called a Bankart lesion, other injuries have been described. The anterior inferior glenohumeral ligaments (aIGHLs), may be torn from their humeral attachment, which is referred to as a humeral avulsion of the glenohumeral ligament (HAGL). Although other structures may be injured, the topic of this surgical technique focuses on a mini-open approach for repair of the HAGL lesion.Chondral lesions of the hip in young patients are frequently associated with additional articular pathology. Parafoveal osteochondral lesions have been reported to be a manifestation of cam lesions in the setting of femoroacetabular impingement (FAI). Although arthroscopic surgery is useful to treat intra- and extra-articular pathology, large lesions located in areas that are difficult to access represent a limitation of the technique. Open surgical dislocation and osteochondral allograft transplantation (OCA) allow treatment of larger surface areas and underlying morphologic abnormalities such as cam lesions. We present our technique for open surgical dislocation of the hip through a stepped trochanteric osteotomy, osteochondral transplantation of fresh-stored femoral head allograft, and osteoplasty of the head/neck junction.Open microgroove is one kind of capillary-driven superwicking surface structure. In this study, arrays of parallel V-shaped microgrooves were fabricated on an aluminum surface by using a femtosecond laser to obtain a superwicking surface which can quickly transport the water uphill against gravity. The relationships between the flowing time and flowing distance were investigated and compared with theoretical results. We demonstrated both laser fluence and scanning step size can affect the superwicking performance. The aluminum surfaces fabricated at a laser fluence of 18.49 J/cm2 and 52.67 J/cm2 showed the best superwicking performances with the average water flow velocities approximately 16.2 mm/s and 16.4 mm/s, respectively, in the distance of 30 mm. On the other hand, the superwicking surfaces show an anisotropic flow characteristic due to the parallel microgrooves structure. However, when the scanning step size drops to 25 µm, the surface will form irregular rough structures that result in the isotropic flow characteristics. Moreover, by using a thermal camera, we found that after a 10 µL water droplet was dropped into the heated surface, the superwicking surface temperature quickly dropped from 92.4 °C to 82.5 °C which indicated that laser processing of the superwicking surface has potential application in heat dissipation.
