Hamstring autograft has been a widely used graft option for ACL reconstruction surgery for years. Data over the last decade, however, has called into question its performance versus other autograft options particularly when it comes to the rate of re-tear. One potential reason for a higher rate of re-tear may be that hamstring grafts tend to be smaller in diameter compared to patellar tendon autografts, for example. Historically, a hamstring graft diameter of 8 mm has been considered a critical value that could determine long-term success versus failure, however an exact graft diameter has not been identified. Dr. Raffy Mirzayan, MD from Kaiser Permanente Baldwin Park joins us to discuss his study aiming to find that threshold diameter for hamstring autograft. We discuss how the fear of a smaller diameter graft may influence surgeons to look at other options such as quadriceps tendon autograft.

Medial meniscal repair performed at the time of primary anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) has been shown to be significantly associated with subsequent surgery, and subsequent surgery has been associated with increased Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) pain score and decreased patient satisfaction. In conclusion, successful medial meniscal repair performed at the time of primary ACLR decreased clinically significant knee pain 10 years postoperatively. However, the mediating effect of subsequent surgery was significant and diminished the overall contribution of medial meniscal repair in decreasing the likelihood of KOOS pain. Continued efforts should be made to decrease the likelihood of subsequent surgery after medial meniscal repair performed at the time of primary ACLR. Click here to read the article.
Tobacco use is a known modifiable risk factor for postoperative complications and revision surgery after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). Previous studies focus on tobacco as a broad categorization of traditional smoking, smokeless tobacco, and other forms of nicotine use. It is unclear if differences in the type of nicotine used lead to similar adverse outcomes after ACLR. In conclusion, smokeless tobacco use was associated with an increased risk of medical complications, ED utilization, and subsequent procedures compared with nonuser controls and traditional smokers. These findings highlight the importance of considering specific forms of tobacco use in preoperative screening for patients undergoing ACLR. Click here to read the article.
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury is one of the most severe injuries for athletes. It is important to identify risk factors because a better understanding of injury causation can help inform athletes about risk and increase their understanding of and motivation for injury prevention. In conclusion, the anatomic factors that we investigated had a weak or no association with risk for an index noncontact ACL injury. Increased static knee valgus was associated with an increased risk for noncontact ACL injury, in particular for secondary injury. Furthermore, hyperextension of the knee was a risk factor for secondary ACL injury. Click here to read the article.
The fear of an Anterior Cruciate Ligament injury, or ACL, hangs over all athletes. It is a season-ending injury, agonising, and with a long painful recovery. But why is it happening to so many female footballers? Research shows that ACL injuries are up to six times more likely to happen to female athletes than male. Former England International Footballer Lianne Sanderson, who suffered an ACL injury in 2016, explores the science behind this statistic and finds out about the solutions that are being put in place. From the UK charity initiative Power Up To Play, established by medical professionals to offer preventative support at grassroots level, to experts at Oslo Sports Trauma Research Center in Norway and the team at IDA Boots who are making female-specific soccer cleats, Lianne introduces a number of solutions and learns about the science of ACL injuries in female athletes.
In this episode of RAPM Focus, Editor-in-Chief Brian Sites, MD, is thrilled to welcome Kesavan Sadacharam, MD, and Allison Fernandez, MD, following the April 2024 publication of their original research paper, “Multisite prospective study of perioperative pain management practices for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction in adolescents: Society for Pediatric Anesthesia Improvement Network (SPAIN) Project Report.” Unwarranted variation in health care refers to differences in health care delivery that cannot be attributed to patient illness, medical evidence, or patient preferences. Instead, these variations arise from differing local medical practices, resource availability, and physician decision-making processes. Unwarranted variations can lead to sub-optimal patient outcomes, with some patients receiving unnecessary or harmful treatments while others may not receive beneficial interventions. Two individuals are behind a multi-center collaborative initiative that looks at the utilization of regional anesthesia and pain medicine techniques for ACL reconstruction. Dr. Allison Fernandez is an associate professor at Johns Hopkins All Children's Hospital, practicing pediatric anesthesia, and pediatric acute and chronic pain management. Dr. Fernandez started a video series, Women of Impact in Anesthesia, empowering women in medicine. Dr. Kesavan Sadacharam is a pediatric anesthesiologist and associate professor at Nemours Children's Health, located in Wilmington, DE. He is currently the director of regional anesthesia and practices both acute and chronic pain management. *The purpose of this podcast is to educate and to inform.

Historically, ACL repair resulted in poor outcomes and this procedure fell out of favor while ACL reconstruction became the gold-standard surgical approach for a torn ACL. Recently, thanks in part to the advent of more modern techniques, ACL repair has regained interest in the Sports Medicine community as a potentially viable option in certain situations that may provide advantages in comparison to ACL reconstruction. To this point, the literature comparing these two surgeries with modern techniques has been heterogenous in terms of quality and design, and results have been mixed. Drs. Kyle Kunze, MD and Benedict Nwachukwu, MD, MBA and their team from Hospital of Special Surgery (HSS) bring us this systematic review and meta-analysis to cull the best literature available. Their findings indicate that, while ACL repair may have an evolving role in our toolbox, its failure rate remains higher than that of ACL reconstruction and thus should be approached with caution.

Join Tim Clement on a mission to discover if there is a better way to recover from an Anterior Cruciate Ligament rupture. Tim's special guest is Dr Stephanie Filbay, who is on a mission to provide patients with a more balanced, evidence-based advice when considering their ACL recovery options. As the author of a ground-breaking research paper on ACL healing, and a prolific debunker non-operative misconceptions, her knowledge in the field is world leading. Speaking from her own experience of a graft re-rupture, Filbay tells us what needs to change to prevent potentially unnecessary surgery and improve surprisingly low return to sport rates. She also reveals some of the insights coming out of her soon-to-be-published studies, including revelations that the majority of medical professionals are not providing accurate information to patients.
The bone–patellar tendon–bone (BTB) autograft is associated with difficulty with kneeling after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction; however, it is unclear whether it results in a more painful or symptomatic knee compared with the hamstring tendon autograft. In conclusion, at 2-year follow-up after primary ACL reconstruction, 9.3% of patients reported CKP, and 12.0% reported SKD. The BTB autograft was associated with difficulty with kneeling, but it did not result in a more painful or symptomatic knee compared with the hamstring tendon autograft.

The correct surgical approach for a skeletally immature athlete with an ACL tear remains controversial. Transphyseal ACL reconstruction with a soft tissue autograft is a popular choice that most resembles the technique performed in adults. However, crossing an open growth plate comes with risk of growth arrest, though the frequency and magnitude of that risk is not well known. We thank Drs. Alexander Seeto, MD and Ivan Astori, MBBS for their discussing their findings with us.
Arthrofibrosis (AF) after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) remains a challenge. There is a paucity of data on arthroscopic interventions for AF after ACLR. In conclusion, an arthroscopic intervention for AF after ACLR successfully improved knee ROM and pain. Patients who underwent either early or late surgery obtained satisfactory motion and function, although improved PROs were observed when the intervention occurred within 3 months of the primary procedure.

We welcome Drs. Adam Daniel, MD and Patrick Smith, MD from Columbia Orthopaedic Group to discuss their study “Reduced Incidence of Revision Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction with Internal Brace Augmentation." Though a proprietary orthopaedic implant, the term “Internal Brace” has become a household name in Sports Medicine and Orthopaedic Surgery in general. It's application in the realm of ACL reconstruction has been theorized, however due to poor performance of prior augmentation efforts with ACLR, Internal Bracing for ACLR has been met with some degree of skepticism. Dr. Smith has decades of experience searching for ways to improve upon ACLR, a surgery that is still far from perfect. He reports on his experience with ACLR with autograft plus Internal Bracing. His results speak for themselves.

Historically, results of direct ACL repair are poor. As such, it has been viewed as a substandard surgical option in comparison to ACL reconstruction, the modern gold-standard approach. However, ACL reconstruction is not without its flaws, and as technology and techniques have advanced, the idea of ACL repair has reemerged. Coming to us from Tripler Army Medical Center, Drs. Christian Cruz and Craig Bottoni share their results with ACL repair in their military population. Like studies from the past, the failure rate was high at 26%. However, those that succeeded had good to excellent results in an average return to full duty time that beats what is expected with ACL reconstruction. Drs. Cruz and Bottoni share their experience with this active population and why ACL repair may make sense in certain situations as well as when to avoid it.
About 50% of people who have an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury will go on to develop osteoarthritis later down the track. What determines who will go on to develop OA?

The Anterior Cruciate Ligament, or ACL, provides the knee the ability to do activities that require high degrees of cutting, pivoting, and accelerating. Once the ligament is torn, the knee is largely rendered unable to perform these types of activities. Learn more about ACL injuries, how they are diagnosed and treated, what to expect if you need surgery, and about the typical timeline for recovery from ACL surgery. Host: Eric Chehab, MD | Guest: David Guelich, MD | Executive Producer: Nick Sarantakis | Executive Producer: Maggie Sketch | Music by: The Young XP
In this preview of next week's episode, Dr. David Guelich explains what needs to be done before ACL surgery, as well as the challenges that patients may face afterward.
Dr. William Montgomery M.D. - Why Do Skiers Tear Their ACL's So Frequently? | Brought to you by Alta Ski Area "Remember the old X-Screams? Remember those? Salomon X-Screams? Oh, baby! Remember those? I blew those puppies right out! They were destroyed..." - Dr. William Montgomery M.D. Dr. Montgomery is an orthopedic surgeon at Dignity Health Medical Foundation in San Francisco, California. Dr. Montgomery has performed over 1,000 ACL surgeries in his career and was the team physician for the San Francisco Giants Baseball Team for 3 years in the late 90s early 2000s. Dr. Montgomery is the current team physician for the University of San Francisco. Ok, his resume is just insane... I'll paraphrase and just say that he has over 35 years of surgical experience, he's been the team physician for lots of important teams, he's been on many important boards, he's already in the University of San Francisco Hall of Fame, he's won lots of awards, he's in lots of impressive societies, he has over 20 publications, has given no less than 144 presentations lectures and labs on orthopedic surgery. Dr. Montgomery also performed ACL reconstruction surgery on my left knee and microfracture surgery on my left femur in 2015 after I experience a vicious ski crash in Japan that winter. In this episode, we will be discussing ACL injury and reconstruction. The ACL is the Anterior Cruciate Ligament of the human knee. The ACL is crucial in many important processes of knee movement and tearing it is a very common injury in cutting & pivoting sports such as skiing, basketball, soccer, tennis, football, baseball, and more. According to the University of Wisconsin, Madison: "There are four main ligaments that stabilize the knee. The anterior cruciate ligament is responsible for stabilizing rotational movements at the knee that occur during cutting and pivoting activities." Dr. Montgomery talks us through everything you could want to know about ACL injury, reconstruction, and recovery for athletes as well as everyday people. Dr. Montgomery answers these critical ACL questions: How do you know if your ACL has been torn? What was it like being the team physician for the San Francisco Giants baseball team? What are the odds of someone fully tearing the same ACL twice? Who blows their ACLs more: skiers or snowboarders? Why? Why do skiers blow their ACL's so frequently? Why are women more susceptible to ACL tears than men? After ACL surgery when can one return to skiing and snowboarding? When will one be back to 100% after ACL surgery? How important is it to have a physical therapist during your ACL recovery and for how long? How important is it to use a brace after ACL surgery? What is your #1 piece of advice for people recovering from ACL surgery? What should one be eating to maximize recovery? Who doesn't need their ACL replaced? How many times can you repair the same ACL? What is the future of ACL surgery and recovery? What's more important after ACL surgery, full extension or full flexion of the leg? more...
