Failure rates of repaired bucket-handle medial meniscal tears (BHMMTs) concomitant with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) are as high as 20%. The outcomes of posteromedial portal suture hook repair have not been compared with all-inside repair techniques for this subtype of meniscal lesion.

Young female athletes are a specific population that is at high risk of primary anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture and subsequent graft failure. Despite large numbers of ACL reconstructions being carried out in young women, there is limited analysis of outcomes in this group, leading to low levels of evidence for graft choice.

We assessed the efficacy of a novel platelet-rich fibrin (PRF)–augmented repair strategy for promoting biological healing of an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) midsubstance tear in a rabbit model. The biological gap-bridging effect of a PRF scaffold alone or in combination with rabbit ligamentocytes on primary ACL healing was evaluated both in vitro and in vivo.

There is a lack of studies about serum and tissue vitamin D levels of the rotator cuff muscle on muscle power, fatty degeneration, and healing failure after rotator cuff repair (RCR). Furthermore, no studies have evaluated vitamin D receptor proteins in the rotator cuff that show a close association with serum vitamin D levels.

The use of allograft tendons has increased for primary and revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, but allograft supply is currently limited to a narrow range of tendons and donors up to the age of 65 years. Expanding the range of donors and tendons could help offset an increasing clinical demand.
