Objectives

While there is a consensus against bracing after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction, the question of its potential benefits, especially in cases involving meniscus repair, as well as its routine use by the majority of clinicians, remains a topic of debate. This study aims to assess the effectiveness of bracing in relation to clinical scores after ACL reconstruction, regardless of meniscus surgery.

Methods

This randomised controlled study involved patients aged 15–55 years who underwent arthroscopic ACL reconstruction surgery. All eligible patients were assigned into two groups: one group received an adjustable frame with a four-point fixation knee brace for a four-week period, while the other did not.

A single experienced surgeon performed standard anatomical single-bundle ACL reconstruction. All patients, irrespective of whether they underwent meniscus repair, followed the same rehabilitation protocol. Knee functional questionnaires, including the International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) score, Lysholm score, Tegner Activity Scale, Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), and examinations, were collected preoperatively, at six months, one year, and two years postoperatively. The study employed an intention-to-treat analysis and multilevel mixed-effects generalised linear models to compare continuous outcomes between the groups, adjusting for the times of follow-up.

Results

A total of 84 patients (42 patients per group) comprised of 75 males (89 %) and average age of 30 ± 9.4 years old. Patient-reported function, physical examination findings, and surgical characteristics were comparable between the two groups. (P-value >0.05) Both groups demonstrated significant improvement in IKDC and Lysholm scores at the end of the two-year follow-up period. (P-value <0.0001) In multivariate analysis, bracing was significantly associated with lower Tegner activity scale than the non-brace group after adjustment for VAS and time (coefficient −0.49, 95 % confidence interval −0.87, −0.10, P-value = 0.013). None of the graft ruptures were reported, and there was no significant difference of return to sports between the groups at the end of the follow-up.

Conclusion

The study suggests that knee bracing after ACL reconstruction, regardless of any additional meniscus procedures, fails to enhance subjective or objective outcomes and could potentially have a negative impact on the Tegner activity scale, although the difference is not clinically significant. The routine use of a postoperative brace should be discontinued.

Level of evidence

Level I, Randomised controlled trial with no negative criteria.

目的虽然人们一致反对在前交叉韧带(ACL)重建术后进行支撑,但其潜在益处(尤其是在涉及半月板修复的病例中)以及大多数临床医生的常规使用问题仍是一个争论不休的话题。本研究旨在评估支撑对前交叉韧带重建后临床评分的有效性,无论是否进行了半月板手术。所有符合条件的患者被分为两组:一组接受为期四周的四点固定可调式护膝架,另一组则不接受护膝架。所有患者,无论是否接受半月板修复,都遵循相同的康复方案。研究人员在术前、术后六个月、一年和两年收集了膝关节功能问卷,包括国际膝关节文献委员会(IKDC)评分、Lysholm评分、Tegner活动量表、视觉模拟量表(VAS)和检查。研究采用了意向治疗分析和多层次混合效应广义线性模型来比较各组间的连续性结果,并对随访时间进行了调整。 结果 84 名患者(每组 42 名)中有 75 名男性(89%),平均年龄为 30 ± 9.4 岁。患者报告的功能、体格检查结果和手术特征在两组之间具有可比性。(在两年随访期结束时,两组患者的 IKDC 和 Lysholm 评分均有显著改善。(P值<0.0001)在多变量分析中,对VAS和时间进行调整后,支架组的Tegner活动量评分明显低于非支架组(系数为-0.49,95%置信区间为-0.87,-0.10,P值=0.013)。结论:该研究表明,前交叉韧带重建术后无论是否进行了半月板手术,膝关节支具都无法改善主观或客观结果,并可能对 Tegner 活动量表产生负面影响,尽管这种差异在临床上并不显著。证据级别I级,随机对照试验,无否定标准。

Objective

Initial tension at graft fixation is one of key factors for good outcomes in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. Identifying the pre-operative factors that influence postoperative knee laxity under the anterior tibial load is useful in determining the initial tension at graft fixation. Thus, the purpose of this study was to clarify the pre-operative factors affecting the side-to-side difference in anterior laxity immediately after the anatomic double-bundle ACL reconstruction with a constant initial tension.

Methods

Fifty-five patients underwent the anatomic double-bundle ACL reconstruction with hamstring tendon grafts. Anterior tibial displacement (ATD) was measured on both knees using KT-2000 Knee Arthrometer under anterior drawer load of 67 N, 89 N, 134 N and manual maximum load at 30° of flexion before ACL reconstruction under anesthesia, and was also measured on the operated knees under 89 N immediately after ACL reconstruction under anesthesia. Then, side-to-side difference (SSD) before and immediately after ACL reconstruction was calculated. Correlative relation between the SSD immediately after ACL reconstruction and the ATD/the SSD in each condition was analyzed.

Results

The side-to-side difference of ATD immediately after surgery was −3.8 ± 1.7 mm (0 to -8mm) in response of 89 N of anterior load. There was correlation between the SSD immediately after ACL reconstruction and all ATD on both knees except for the ATD under manual maximum load on the injured knee, while little correlation between the SSD immediately after ACL reconstruction and that before ACL reconstruction was found. Especially, ATD under 89 N on the opposite knees and ATD under 134 N on the injured knees showed selective correlation with the SSD immediately after surgery in the step-wise multiple regression analysis.

Conclusion

As the anterior tibial displacements under 89 N on the contra-lateral knee and under 134 N on the injured knee had a significant correlation with the SSD immediately after ACL reconstruction, those values may be helpful in determining the increase or decrease in initial tension at graft fixation.

目的移植物固定时的初始张力是前交叉韧带(ACL)重建术取得良好疗效的关键因素之一。确定影响术后膝关节在胫骨前负荷下松弛的术前因素有助于确定移植物固定时的初始张力。因此,本研究旨在明确影响解剖双束前交叉韧带重建术后即刻前方松弛侧向差异的术前因素,并确定恒定的初始张力。在麻醉下进行前交叉韧带重建前,使用 KT-2000 膝关节测量仪在前牵引负荷 67 N、89 N、134 N 和屈曲 30°手动最大负荷下测量双膝的胫骨前位移(ATD),并在麻醉下进行前交叉韧带重建后立即在 89 N 负荷下测量手术膝的胫骨前位移(ATD)。然后计算前交叉韧带重建前和重建后的侧向差(SSD)。结果在 89 N 的前负荷作用下,术后即刻的 ATD 侧-侧差为 -3.8 ± 1.7 mm(0 至 -8mm)。前交叉韧带重建术后的SSD与双膝关节的所有ATD之间存在相关性,但受伤膝关节在人工最大负荷下的ATD除外,而前交叉韧带重建术后的SSD与前交叉韧带重建术前的SSD之间几乎没有相关性。结论 由于对侧膝关节的胫骨前位移在 89 N 以下和受伤膝关节的胫骨前位移在 134 N 以下与前交叉韧带重建后的 SSD 有显著相关性,这些值可能有助于判断移植物固定时初始张力的增减。

Background

Arthroscopic rotator cuff repair (ARCR) is a minimally invasive surgical technique. However, it is challenging to control postoperative pain. This study aimed to investigate the difference between a single-shot interscalene block and a combined continuous block for ARCR.

Methods

Ninety-four patients who underwent ARCR were included in this study. In the preceding period, 43 patients received a single-shot interscalene block and continuous postoperative intravenous opioid infusion (Single group). In the posterior period, 51 patients received a single-shot interscalene block preoperatively and a continuous block postoperatively (Continuous group). Their mean age at surgery was 64.9 years (range, 43–83 years). The mean follow-up period was 25.4 months (range, 24–54 months). The numerical rating scale (NRS) of pain was evaluated immediately after the surgery, at rest, and at night for 1–4 days after the surgery. One day postoperatively, the amount of food taken was assessed from 0 % (no food intake) to 100 % (all food taken). The University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA) shoulder score, range of motion (ROM), and isometric shoulder strength were evaluated.

Results

NRS at rest in the Continuous group on the day of surgery was 3.7 ± 2.5. This was significantly lower than in the Single group (5.2 ± 1.8) (P = 0.002). NRS at rest in the Continuous group on the second day after surgery was 3.0 ± 2.1, significantly lower than in the Single group (3.9 ± 1.8) (P = 0.04). The amount of food taken in the morning in the Continuous group was 61 % ± 37 %, which was significantly greater than in the Single group (35 % ± 41 %) (P = 0.004). The ROM of extension at 6 months postoperatively in the Continuous group was 47 ± 7°, which was significantly greater than in the Single group (43 ± 6°) (P = 0.02). The postoperative strength of the external rotator at 6 months in the Continuous group was 95 ± 33 N, significantly greater than in the Single group (78 ± 28 N) (P = 0.01). There was no significant difference in UCLA score at any time.

Conclusion

The continuous interscalene block with ultrasound guidance in ARCR effectively relieved pain. The recovery of ROM for extension and the strength of the external rotator was better in the Continuous group.

背景显微镜下肩袖修复术(ARCR)是一种微创手术技术。然而,控制术后疼痛是一项挑战。本研究旨在探讨单次肩胛间阻滞与联合连续阻滞在 ARCR 中的区别。在前期,43 名患者接受了单次椎间孔阻滞和术后持续静脉输注阿片类药物(单次组)。在后阶段,51 名患者术前接受单次椎间孔阻滞,术后接受连续阻滞(连续组)。他们手术时的平均年龄为 64.9 岁(43-83 岁)。平均随访时间为 25.4 个月(24-54 个月)。术后 1-4 天内,对术后即刻、休息时和夜间的疼痛进行了数字评分量表(NRS)评估。术后一天,对进食量进行评估,从0%(未进食)到100%(全部进食)不等。对加州大学洛杉矶分校(UCLA)的肩关节评分、活动范围(ROM)和肩关节等长肌力进行了评估。这明显低于单一组(5.2 ± 1.8)(P = 0.002)。术后第二天,持续组休息时的 NRS 为 3.0 ± 2.1,明显低于单一组(3.9 ± 1.8)(P = 0.04)。连续组患者早上进食量为 61 % ± 37 %,明显高于单一组(35 % ± 41 %)(P = 0.004)。术后 6 个月时,持续组的伸展 ROM 为 47 ± 7°,明显高于单一组(43 ± 6°)(P = 0.02)。连续组术后 6 个月的外旋肌力量为 95 ± 33 N,明显高于单一组(78 ± 28 N)(P = 0.01)。结论 超声引导下的连续椎间孔阻滞在 ARCR 中能有效缓解疼痛。连续组的伸展 ROM 和外旋肌力量恢复更好。

Background/Objective

Normal knee kinematics during flexion and extension activities over the whole range of motion remains unknown. This study aimed to clarify in vivo kinematics during knee flexion and extension activities of normal knees by comparing continuous flexion and extension activities up to a high flexion angle.

Methods

Twenty knees of 10 Japanese volunteers were enrolled in this study. Each volunteer performed a continuous squatting motion under fluoroscopy, and a two- or three-dimensional registration technique was used. Rotation and anteroposterior translation of the medial and lateral sides of the femur relative to the tibia at each flexion angle were evaluated.

Results

Femoral external rotation was significantly smaller from 10° to 40° flexion during extension activities than during flexion activities. However, the femoral external rotation was larger from 120° to 130° flexion during extension activities than during flexion activities. From 10° to 60° of flexion, the medial side was significantly more posteriorly located during extension activities than during flexion activities. Furthermore, the lateral side was significantly more posteriorly located at 130° of flexion during extension activities than during flexion activities.

Conclusion

In vivo kinematics of normal knees during extension activities differ from those during flexion activities in early and high flexion.

背景/目的正常膝关节在整个运动范围内进行屈伸活动时的运动学特性尚不清楚。本研究旨在通过比较连续屈伸活动至高屈曲角度时正常膝关节在膝关节屈伸活动过程中的活体运动学特性。每位志愿者都在透视下进行了连续下蹲运动,并使用了二维或三维登记技术。结果在伸展活动中,股骨外旋从 10°到 40°屈曲时明显小于屈曲活动时。然而,在伸展活动时,股骨外旋在屈曲 120°至 130°之间比在屈曲活动时大。从屈曲10°到60°,伸展活动时内侧明显比屈曲活动时更靠后。结论正常膝关节在伸展活动中的运动学特性与屈曲活动中早期和高度屈曲时的运动学特性不同。

Background

Chronic ankle instability (CAI) has been considered a neurophysiological disease, having as symptoms dysfunction in somatosensory and motor system excitability. Rehabilitation has been considered an effective treatment for CAI. However, few studies have explored the effects of rehabilitation on neuroplasticity in the CAI population.

Objective

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of rehabilitation on cortical activities for postural control in CAI patients and to find the correlation between the change in cortical activities and patient-reported outcomes (PROs).

Methods

Thirteen participants with CAI (6 female, 7 male, age = 33.8 ± 7.7 years, BMI = 24.7 ± 4.9 kg/m2) received a home exercise program for about 40 min per day, four days per week and six weeks, including ankle range-of-motion exercise, muscle strengthening, and balance activities. Cortical activation, PROs and Y-balance test outcomes were assessed and compared before and after rehabilitation. Cortical activation was detected via Functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) while the participants performed single-leg stance tasks.

Results

The participants had better PROs and Y balance test outcomes after rehabilitation. Greater cortical activation was observed in the primary somatosensory cortex (S1, d = 0.66, p = 0.035), the superior temporal gyrus (STG, d = 1.06, p = 0.002) and the middle temporal gyrus (MTG, d = 0.66, p = 0.035) in CAI patients after rehabilitation. Moreover, significant positive correlations were observed between the recovery of ankle symptoms and the change of cortical activation in S1 (r = 0.74, p = 0.005) and STG (r = 0.72, p = 0.007) respectively.

Conclusion

The current study reveals that six weeks of rehabilitation can cause greater cortical activation in S1, STG and MTG. This increase in cortical activation suggested a better ability to perceive somatosensory stimuli and may have a compensatory role in function improvement.

背景 慢性踝关节不稳(CAI)被认为是一种神经生理学疾病,其症状是躯体感觉和运动系统兴奋性失调。康复治疗被认为是治疗 CAI 的有效方法。本研究旨在探讨康复治疗对 CAI 患者姿势控制皮质活动的影响,并找出皮质活动变化与患者报告结果(PROs)之间的相关性。方法13名 CAI 患者(6 名女性,7 名男性,年龄 = 33.8 ± 7.7 岁,体重指数 = 24.7 ± 4.9 kg/m2)接受了为期六周、每周四天、每天约 40 分钟的家庭锻炼计划,包括踝关节活动范围锻炼、肌肉强化和平衡活动。对皮质激活、PROs 和 Y 平衡测试结果进行了评估,并对康复前后的结果进行了比较。通过功能性近红外光谱(fNIRS)检测皮质激活情况,同时参与者执行单腿站立任务。CAI患者康复后,初级体感皮层(S1,d = 0.66,p = 0.035)、颞上回(STG,d = 1.06,p = 0.002)和颞中回(MTG,d = 0.66,p = 0.035)的皮层激活程度更高。此外,踝关节症状的恢复分别与 S1(r = 0.74,p = 0.005)和 STG(r = 0.72,p = 0.007)的皮质激活变化之间存在明显的正相关。皮质激活的增加表明患者对躯体感觉刺激有更好的感知能力,并可能对功能改善起到补偿作用。

Background

This study aimed to investigate the correlations of serum vitamin D insufficiency with quadriceps neuromuscular function in patients with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury.

Methods

A cross-sectional study was conducted. Eighteen patients with a primary, unilateral ACL injury who had insufficient serum vitamin D concentrations (<30 ng/ml) were recruited for the study. Bilateral quadriceps neuromuscular function, including maximal strength, the speed of rapid contraction, and inhibition, were measured on an isokinetic dynamometer with the hip and the knee joint flexion at 90° and 45°, respectively. Quadriceps strength was measured by maximal voluntary isometric contractions (MVIC); the speed of rapid contraction was quantified by the rate of torque development (RTD), which was divided into the early (RTD0-50) and the late phase (RTD100-200); quadriceps inhibition was quantified by the central activation ratio (CAR). Serum vitamin D concentration was quantitatively determined by serum 25(OH)D concentration measured by the 25(OH)D ELISA kit. The Spearman rank correlation analysis was used to examine the correlation between the vitamin D concentration and bilateral quadriceps MVIC, RTD0-50, RTD100-200, and CAR, respectively.

Results

The results of Spearman rank correlation analyses showed that the serum 25(OH)D concentration was significantly correlated with bilateral quadriceps MVIC (injured: r = 0.574, p = 0.013; uninjured: r = 0.650, p = 0.003) and RTD0-50 (r = 0.651, p = 0.003), and CAR (r = 0.662, p = 0.003) on the uninjured limb. However, no significant correlations were found between the serum 25(OH)D concentration and the other outcomes.

Conclusions

The serum vitamin D concentration correlates with quadriceps neuromuscular function in patients with ACL injury who had vitamin D insufficiency.

背景本研究旨在探讨前十字韧带(ACL)损伤患者血清维生素 D 不足与股四头肌神经肌肉功能的相关性。研究招募了 18 名血清维生素 D 浓度不足(30 ng/ml)的原发性单侧前十字韧带损伤患者。在髋关节和膝关节分别屈曲 90° 和 45° 的情况下,使用等动测力计测量双侧股四头肌的神经肌肉功能,包括最大力量、快速收缩速度和抑制作用。股四头肌力量通过最大自主等长收缩(MVIC)进行测量;快速收缩速度通过扭矩发展速度(RTD)进行量化,分为早期阶段(RTD0-50)和晚期阶段(RTD100-200);股四头肌抑制通过中心激活比(CAR)进行量化。血清维生素 D 浓度通过 25(OH)D 酶联免疫吸附试剂盒测定的血清 25(OH)D 浓度进行定量测定。采用斯皮尔曼秩相关分析分别检验维生素 D 浓度与双侧股四头肌 MVIC、RTD0-50、RTD100-200 和 CAR 之间的相关性。结果Spearman等级相关分析结果显示,血清25(OH)D浓度与未受伤肢体的双侧股四头肌MVIC(受伤:r = 0.574,p = 0.013;未受伤:r = 0.650,p = 0.003)和RTD0-50(r = 0.651,p = 0.003)以及CAR(r = 0.662,p = 0.003)显著相关。结论前交叉韧带损伤患者维生素 D 不足时,血清维生素 D 浓度与股四头肌神经肌肉功能相关。

Background

The purpose of this study was to investigate the positional effect of guide pins used in the transtibial pullout repair of medial meniscus posterior root tears on the popliteal artery.

Methods

We used eight cadaveric knees. Two 2.4-mm guide pins were inserted into the posterior root of the medial meniscus at 50° to the articular surface from the medial edge of the tibial tuberosity (anteromedial group) and the anterior edge of the medial collateral ligament (posteromedial group) using an aiming guide placed at the posterior root attachment of the medial meniscus from the anteromedial portal. The posterior capsule was dissected, and the popliteal artery was identified. The positional effect of the guide pins on the popliteal artery was photographed arthroscopically at 0°, 30°, 60°, and 90° knee flexion angles. The popliteal artery diameter and the minimum distance between the popliteal artery center and the guide pin tip were measured.

Results

At 90° knee flexion, most of the guide pins in the anteromedial (6 knees; 75 %) and posteromedial groups (7 knees; 87.5 %) collided with the femoral intercondylar wall. The rate of collision was significantly higher at the 90° knee flexion position than that at other angles (p = 0.02). The average shortest distance between the popliteal artery center and the guide pin tip at 0° knee flexion in the posteromedial group (5.4 mm ± 3.4 mm) was significantly greater than that at other knee flexion angles, although the mean distance in the posteromedial group was so negligible that the guide pin could penetrate the popliteal artery.

Conclusions

Knee flexion at 90° causes less damage to the popliteal artery during the transtibial pullout repair of medial meniscus posterior root tears.

背景本研究的目的是调查经胫骨牵引修复内侧半月板后根撕裂时所用导针的位置对腘动脉的影响。从胫骨结节的内侧边缘(前内侧组)和内侧副韧带的前边缘(后内侧组)将两根 2.4 毫米的导针插入内侧半月板的后根部,导针与关节面成 50°,导针的瞄准器放置在内侧半月板的后根部附着处。解剖后囊,确定腘动脉。在膝关节屈曲角度为 0°、30°、60° 和 90°时,用关节镜拍摄导针对腘动脉的位置影响。结果膝关节屈曲 90°时,前内侧组(6 膝;75%)和后内侧组(7 膝;87.5%)的大部分导针与股骨髁间壁发生碰撞。膝关节屈曲90°时的碰撞率明显高于其他角度(p = 0.02)。膝关节后内侧组膝关节屈曲0°时腘动脉中心与导针顶端之间的平均最短距离(5.4 mm ± 3.4 mm)明显大于其他膝关节屈曲角度,尽管后内侧组的平均距离微不足道,以至于导针可以穿透腘动脉。

Background

This study aimed to examine the clinical outcomes of double-bundle (DB) anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction in patients aged ≥60 years.

Methods

Anatomical DB-ACL reconstruction using hamstring tendon autografts was performed in 13 patients aged ≥60 years at our institution between June 2012 and May 2018. The patients included seven men and six women, and the mean age at surgery was 65.0 years (range, 60–73 years). The mean time from injury to surgery was 80.5 months (range, 1–480 months), and the mean follow-up time was 26.2 months (range, 24–42 months). All patients were assessed based on physical examination findings, clinical scores, Kellgren–Lawrence grades preoperatively and at the final postoperative follow-up, intraoperative meniscal or chondral lesions, and perioperative complications. Status of returning to sports for all patients was assessed at the final follow-up.

Results

The mean side-to-side differences by arthrometer improved from 4.3 mm (range, 2–8 mm) to 0.9 mm (range, 0–2 mm), and the positive pivot-shift test decreased from 100% to 8%. The mean extensor muscle strength was 93.3% (range, 74–116%) postoperatively. The mean Lysholm score improved from 71.1 (range, 27-85) to 95.2 (range, 89-100). Ten of the 13 patients (77%) returned to their pre-injury level of sports performance, and one patient (8%) returned to sports with less intensity. Intraoperatively, meniscal tears were observed in 10 patients (77%), and chondral lesions >grade 2 were observed in 11 (85%). One patient developed perioperative complications. At the final follow-up, the Kellgren–Lawrence grade worsened in only one patient. No re-injury or infection was observed, and revision surgery was not required for any patients.

Conclusions

Anatomical DB-ACL reconstruction could provide satisfactory clinical outcomes and knee function restoration in patients aged ≥60 years.

Level of evidence

A retrospective study, case series (IV).

背景本研究旨在探讨双束(DB)前交叉韧带(ACL)重建术对年龄≥60岁患者的临床疗效。方法2012年6月至2018年5月期间,我院对13名年龄≥60岁的患者进行了使用腘绳肌腱自体移植的DB-ACL解剖重建术。患者包括 7 名男性和 6 名女性,手术时的平均年龄为 65.0 岁(范围为 60-73 岁)。从受伤到手术的平均时间为 80.5 个月(范围为 1-480 个月),平均随访时间为 26.2 个月(范围为 24-42 个月)。所有患者的评估均基于体格检查结果、临床评分、术前和术后最终随访时的 Kellgren-Lawrence 分级、术中半月板或软骨损伤以及围手术期并发症。结果关节测量仪显示的平均侧向差异从4.3毫米(范围为2-8毫米)缩小到0.9毫米(范围为0-2毫米),枢轴移位试验阳性率从100%下降到8%。术后平均伸肌肌力为93.3%(范围为74-116%)。Lysholm 评分的平均值从 71.1(范围:27-85)提高到 95.2(范围:89-100)。13名患者中有10名(77%)恢复到了受伤前的运动水平,1名患者(8%)恢复到了运动强度较低的水平。术中观察到,10 名患者(77%)出现半月板撕裂,11 名患者(85%)出现软骨损伤 2 级。一名患者出现了围手术期并发症。在最后的随访中,只有一名患者的 Kellgren-Lawrence 分级恶化。结论解剖型DB-ACL重建术可为年龄≥60岁的患者提供满意的临床效果并恢复膝关节功能。

Background/Objective

The purpose of this study was to find factors indicating the occurrence of the Segond fracture, a specific type of anterolateral ligament injury.

Methods

From January 2015 to December 2017, we retrospectively reviewed the medical records of patients diagnosed with acute anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury who underwent reconstruction within 90 days of injury. Diagnosis of the Segond fracture was determined either by magnetic resonance imaging or plain radiographs. Factors examined were: age at surgery, sex, body mass index (kg/m2), status of menisci, and activities led to ACL injury. After univariate screening, multivariate logistic regression analyses were performed. Patients were divided into four groups based on the presence of lateral meniscal (LM) and/or medial meniscal (MM) injuries and compared with respect to the occurrence of Segond fractures.

Results

A total of 375 patients were included (163 males, 212 females), with mean age 25.8 years old. Among them, 22 of 375 (5.9 %) had a Segond fracture. We identified injured lateral menisci (adjusted odds ratio (aOR), 3.029; 95 % Confidence Interval (CI), 1.206–7.609; P = 0.018), intact medial menisci (aOR, 0.229; 95 % CI, 0.065–0.810; P = 0.022), and higher body mass index (aOR, 1.102; 95 % CI, 1.008–1.205; P = 0.034) as factors indicative of the occurrence of Segond fracture. LM injury without MM injury suggested the existence of a Segond fracture.

Conclusion

LM injury without a MM injury indicated the occurrence of a Segond fracture. Higher body mass index also increased the risk for Segond fracture occurrence.

背景/目的本研究的目的是寻找表明赛孔德骨折(一种特殊的前外侧韧带损伤类型)发生的因素。方法从 2015 年 1 月到 2017 年 12 月,我们回顾性地查看了被诊断为急性前交叉韧带(ACL)损伤并在受伤后 90 天内接受了重建手术的患者的病历。Segond骨折的诊断是通过磁共振成像或普通X光片确定的。研究因素包括:手术时的年龄、性别、体重指数(kg/m2)、半月板状态以及导致前交叉韧带损伤的活动。经过单变量筛选后,进行了多变量逻辑回归分析。根据患者是否存在外侧半月板(LM)和/或内侧半月板(MM)损伤将其分为四组,并就Segond骨折的发生率进行比较。结果 共纳入375例患者(男163例,女212例),平均年龄25.8岁。其中,375 例患者中有 22 例(5.9%)发生了 Segond 骨折。我们确定了受伤的外侧半月板(调整赔率 (aOR),3.029;95 % 置信区间 (CI),1.206-7.609;P = 0.018)、完整的内侧半月板(aOR,0.229; 95 % CI, 0.065-0.810; P = 0.022)和较高的体重指数(aOR, 1.102; 95 % CI, 1.008-1.205; P = 0.034)是发生 Segond 骨折的指示因素。没有 MM 损伤的 LM 损伤提示存在 Segond 骨折。体重指数越高,发生赛刚氏骨折的风险越高。

Surgical repair or reconstruction of the lateral ligaments for patients with chronic ankle instability (CAI) could, logically, restore the proprioception of ankle through retensing receptors. To validate this hypothesis, seven databases were systematically searched, and thirteen studies comprising a total of 347 patients with CAI were included. Although five studies reported improved proprioceptive outcomes after surgeries, the other five studies with between-limb/group comparisons reported residual deficits at final follow-up, which does not consistently support proprioceptive recovery after existing surgical restabilization for CAI. More controlled studies are needed to provide evidence-based protocols to improve proprioceptive recovery after ankle restabilization for CAI.

对慢性踝关节不稳定(CAI)患者进行外侧韧带手术修复或重建,理所当然可以通过复位感受器恢复踝关节的本体感觉。为了验证这一假设,我们系统地检索了七个数据库,共纳入了 13 项研究,包括 347 名 CAI 患者。虽然有五项研究报告称手术后本体感觉有所改善,但其他五项进行了肢体间/组间比较的研究报告称在最终随访时仍存在缺陷,这并不一致地支持现有的手术复位治疗 CAI 后本体感觉的恢复。需要更多的对照研究来提供循证方案,以改善踝关节复位治疗 CAI 后的本体感觉恢复。
