Article Title: Arthroscopic Repair of Combined Triangular Fibrocartilage Complex, Lunotriquetral Ligament, and Ulnocarpal Ligament Tears

doi: 10.1016/j.eats.2024.102995

Figure Lengend Snippet: The right wrist is shown. (A) Arthroscopic view from the 3-4 portal. The black asterisk shows the volar ulnocarpal ligament complex (UCLC) that coalesces with the volar ulnar capsule. (B) Arthroscopic view from the 3-4 portal shows a zoomed-in view of a friable and lax UCLC/volar ulnar capsule (multiple black arrows). Laxity can only be tested with an arthroscopic probe. (C) An arthroscopic probe entering from the 6R portal is used to check the laxity of the UCLC/volar ulnar capsule (asterisk) by hooking the complex dorsally toward the ulnar head. The faded red dotted line indicates the interface between the UCLC/volar ulnar capsule and the palmar TFCC. The faded green dotted line represents the interface between the ECU SS and the dorsal TFCC. (6U, 6-ulnar; ECU, extensor carpi ulnaris; SS, subsheath; TFCC, triangular fibrocartilage complex; Tq, triquetrum.)

doi: 10.1016/j.eats.2017.08.025

Figure Lengend Snippet: (A) Arthroscopic view of the OsteoPrecision cannula inserted through the anteromedial portal under dry conditions and the graft material being injected under direct visualization, delivering the injectable bone graft with the knee drained of fluid. (ACL, anterior cruciate ligament; PCL, posterior cruciate ligament.) (B) Arthroscopic view of the entire femoral tunnel through the anterolateral portal with a 70° arthroscope. (C) Arthroscopic view of the femoral tunnel after complete graft fill.

Article Snippet: A thorough examination evaluating for concomitant chondral and meniscal injury is performed., Standard arthroscopic biters are used to perform morcellation of the graft tissue, and the combination of a 4.5 mm arthroscopic shaver and an ArthroCare device (ArthroCare, Austin TX) is used to excise the graft material and clearly expose the ACL tunnels.

Figure Lengend Snippet: Additional case of a 28-year-old patient with failed double-bundle anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction and excessive loss of bone stock requiring bone grafting of the femoral tunnels. (A, B) Arthroscopic images showing the tunnels after debridement. (C) Arthroscopic view of the anteromedial bundle tunnel after complete allograft fill. (D, E) At the time of revision ACL reconstruction, the tunnels were found to be completely filled with bone. Given the complete graft consolidation, we were able to perform anatomic drilling and ACL graft placement.

Figure Lengend Snippet: The demonstration of hydroxyapatite bone graft substitute insertion of the right subtalar joint during posterior subtalar arthroscopy in a patient with prone position. (A) A clinical image demonstrates the hydroxyapatite bone graft substitute insertion by a surgical assistant via an arthroscopic sheath in the posteromedial portal (PMP), which is controlled by the surgeon's left hand. (B) An arthroscopic image shows that the posterolateral portal (PLP) is a viewing portal. Hydroxyapatite bone graft substitute (HA) is inserted through the PMP.
