doi: 10.1186/s12891-024-08036-2

Figure Lengend Snippet: Schematic illustration of the lateral anchor. One lateral row anchor was inserted at the proximal edge of the fracture line approximately 1–1.5 cm from the tibia, and four suture ends were secured

Article Snippet: With the fracture subsequently repositioned in the inversion position, one lateral row knotless anchor (Depuy Mitek, Johnson & Johnson) was inserted at the proximal edge of the fracture line approximately 1–1.5 cm from the tibia, and the dislocated bone fragments were fixed via the suture bridge technique (Figs. and ).

Figure Lengend Snippet: A: A curved incision was made at the medial side of the ankle joint to reveal the fracture and injured deltoid ligament. Yellow arrows: Deltoid ligament. Blue arrow: Anterior colliculus. B: The medial suture anchor was inserted into the medial malleolus. Yellow arrow: The medial suture anchor. C: The sutures were retightened with the lateral row anchor. Yellow arrow: One suture was knotted to secure the bone block. Blue arrow: The other suture was used to knit and suture the deltoid ligament. Black arrow: Lateral anchor inserted at the proximal edge of the fracture line approximately 1–1.5 cm from the tibia

doi: 10.1016/j.eats.2019.10.007

Figure Lengend Snippet: Graft insertion and fixation (right shoulder). (A) A keyhole is formed in the biceps groove. Two anchors are inserted into the medial row. (B) A prepared Achilles tendon–bone graft is inserted into the humeral head and fixed using a knotless anchor. At this time, if it is fixed to the medial side, the anchor may be inserted into the hole and fracture may occur.

Article Snippet: After each mattress stitch is tied, lateral row knotless anchors (3.5 mm Pop-Lock; ConMed Linvatec) are inserted 2 to 3 cm distal to the lateral edge of the keyhole ( ).

doi: 10.1016/j.eats.2025.103843

Figure Lengend Snippet: Portal placement of this technique. Standard posterior viewing portal and 3 different anterior portals (anterosuperior, anteromedial, and anteroinferior) of the right shoulder in a lateral decubitus position. The anterosuperior portal is made roughly 2 finger-breaths off the anterolateral edge of the acromion for approximation of the torn subscapularis tendon. An anteroinferior portal is established lateral to the coracoid for a suture pathway. The anteromedial portal is made beneath the acromioclavicular joint for anchor placement. (I, anteroinferior portal; M, anteromedial portal; P, posterior viewing portal; S, anterosuperior portal.)

Figure Lengend Snippet: Diagnostic arthroscopy examination using a 30° arthroscope in the posterior viewing portal of a right shoulder in the lateral decubitus position. (A) The subscapularis tear is confirmed. (B) The long head of the biceps tendon (LHBT) is examined. If there is no LHBT pathology, including instability or subluxation, the modified double-row suture repair technique is performed. (H, humeral head; LHBT, long head of the biceps tendon; SSC, subscapularis.)

Figure Lengend Snippet: (A) One suture of the inferior lateral row suture anchor is used as a mattress suture for the superior border of the subscapularis of the right shoulder in the lateral decubitus position. (B) The 2 limbs of the suture pass through the superior border of the subscapularis via the anteroinferior portal with a lasso suture passer. The other suture of the inferior lateral row suture anchor is used as a mattress suture for the inferior border of the subscapularis. The 2 limbs of the suture pass through the inferior border of the subscapularis via the anteroinferior portal with a lasso suture passer.
