Popis: |
The quad tendon has increasingly became a very common option for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. Minimally invasive approaches are one of the many advantages to the quad tendon graft. One of the issues with a small incision is assuring appropriate proximal closure. In this technique, we use the arthroscope to view proximally and a Scorpion (Arthrex) device to close our proximal quad harvest. We also describe the updated preparation of the quad tendon with FiberTag TightRope (Arthrex) and FiberTag ABS (Arthrex). These implants have FiberTag incorporated to the suspensory devices that creates a stable construct that is faster to incorporate into the quad with the slotted clamp. Together, these updates to the preparation and harvest should make the construct more reproducible and decrease donor-site morbidity respectively. |
