Patellar tendon rupture after total knee arthroplasty is a severe complication that can result from a combination of patient-specific risk factors, surgical technique, and trauma. Several methods have been proposed to address this pathology; however, a "gold standard" has yet to be defined. In this Technical Note, the authors describe a modified surgical technique for patellar tendon reconstruction after total knee arthroplasty using a fresh-frozen Achilles tendon allograft with an attached calcaneal bone plug. Our technique aims to restore the extensor mechanism's function while offering superior stability and durability.
全膝关节置换术后髌腱断裂是一种严重的并发症,可能由患者特定的风险因素、手术技术和创伤共同导致。已经提出了几种方法来处理这种病理情况;然而,“金标准”尚未确定。在本技术说明中,作者描述了一种改良的手术技术,用于全膝关节置换术后使用带跟骨骨块的新鲜冷冻同种异体跟腱进行髌腱重建。我们的技术旨在恢复伸膝机制的功能,同时提供卓越的稳定性和耐久性。
