External Adhesive Marker Technique Shows Excellent Reproducibility for Measuring Patellar Tendon‐to‐Lateral Trochlear Ridge Distance on Magnetic Resonance Imaging

Purpose To evaluate the agreement between a simple magnetic resonance imaging‐based measurement method for determining the patellar tendon‐to‐lateral trochlear ridge (PT‐LTR) distance using an external adhesive marker and a previously validated conventional measurement technique....

Intratunnel Anchor Fixation and Transtibial Pull‐Through Repair Show Comparable Short‐Term Outcomes After Meniscus Root Repair: A Propensity‐Matched Comparative Study

Purpose To compare short‐term outcomes of intratunnel anchor fixation versus transtibial pull‐through repair for meniscus root tears with a minimum of 12‐month follow‐up. Methods Patients who underwent primary meniscus root repair between 2011 and 2024 at a single institution wer...

Patellar Tendon‐Lateral Trochlear Ridge Distance Is More Specific Than Tibial Tubercle‐Trochlear Groove for Patellofemoral Instability

PURPOSE: To assess the reliability, predictability, and discriminative capacity of 3 anatomic measurements, tibial tubercle-trochlear groove (TT-TG), tibial tubercle-posterior cruciate ligament, and patellar tendon-lateral trochlear ridge (PT-LTR), where PT-LTR may offer a comple...

Approximately 30% of Patients Undergoing Knee Cartilage Biopsy Subsequently Undergo Matrix‐Induced Autologous Chondrocyte Implantation at a Mean 4.3‐Year Follow‐Up

Purpose To evaluate implantation rates, time to implantation, and predictors of implantation following matrix‐induced autologous chondrocyte implantation (MACI) biopsy for knee chondral defects. Methods Patients undergoing MACI biopsy or implantation for symptomatic knee chondral...
