  • 슬개대퇴 불안정성의 진단은 정확한 해부학적 지식을 바탕으로 역동적인(dynamic) 기전을 이해하여야 한다. 슬개골의 저명한 탈구는 쉽게 진단되지만, 경미한 외상으로 슬개골이 탈구되어 정복된 후에는 올바른 진찰(dynamic study)없이 방사선 검사(static study)으로 진단을 놓치는 경우가 많다. 그러므로 병력, 이학적 진찰, 방사선 검사, CT, MRI 그리고 관절경 검사까지 다양하게 필요할 수 있다.

  • Purpose: To evaluate the relationship between the real pathology & abnormal finding found by ultrasonography. Without an MRI test being done beforehand, an arthroscopy is done after an ultrasonography to show abnormal lesions during a knee abnormality. Materials and Methods: The subjects were 42 patients out of 49 cases, excluding those with rheumatoid arthritis, septic arthritis and patients suspected with a ligament tear, which were examined by ultrasonography alone before receiving a knee arthroscopy in our hospital from July 2007 to July 2008. In every case, a physical examination, simple X-ray and knee ultrasonography was done. An arthroscopy was performed when there was ultrasonographic abnormal finding. Before the procedure, a MRI test was not performed and when abnormal findings were found by an arthroscopy, an appropriate surgery was done. Results: During the ultrasonographic examination, there were various sized effusions in the suprapatellar pouch. Also, in addition there were eleven cases of medial meniscus abnormalities, sixteen cases of lateral meniscus abnormalities, and two cases of cystic lesions. Throughout the arthroscopic examination, there were 14 cases of medial meniscus abnormalities, 20 cases of lateral meniscus abnormalities, 15 cases of cartilage damages, 9 cases of medial pathologic plica, 2 cases of intra-articular loose bodies, 5 cases of chondromalacia, 2 cases of cyst, and 2 cases of synovitis. When an effusion abnormality was found by the ultrasonography in a suprapatellar pouch, there was a 100% probability of knee pathology. When a medial meniscus abnormality was found with an ultrasonography, there was a 90.9% probability of a real pathology. When a lateral meniscus abnormality was found there was 81.2% probability of a real pathology. Ultrasonography was 100% accurate when it came to cystic lesions. Conclusion: Knee ultrasonography performed before an arthroscopy seems to be a very useful examination method when suspecting intra-articular lesions.

  • Purpose: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the accuracy of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the diagnosis of acute anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury and its tear pattern in comparison with arthroscopic finding. Materials and Methods: Sixty consecutive patients with acute ACL injury were taken NRI followed by arthroscopic examination between January 2002 and June 2004. MRI findings were reviewed according to the presence of ACL discontinuity, diffuse swelling or thickening, focal edema, collapse on distal end, and any combined tear. The pathologic findings were then confirmed arthroscopically. The diagnostic accuracy of MRI on ACL tear pattern was analyzed by obtaining its positive predictive value. Results: All fifty two cases with presence of discontinuity on MRI showed ACL rupture arthroscopically. The location of ACL tear, diffuse swelling and focal edema on MRI also corresponded with arthroscopic findings respectively. However, the diagnostic accuracy of MRI was relatively lower in the presence of other ACL patterns such as collapses and combined tear. Conclusion: Preoperative MRI findings seem to be in accordance with arthroscopic findings and is significantly accurate in detection of location and diffuse swelling and focal edema of ACL tear.

  • 관절경적인 접근이 필요한 고관절의 동통을 호소하는 젊은 환자의 감별에서 가장 중요한 것은 동통의 원인이 관절 내인지, 관절외인지를 확인하는 것이다. 이에는 다양한 임상 진찰이 사용되지만, 이 뿐 아니라 단순 방사선 검사, 전산화 단층촬영, 자기공명영상, 초음파, 관절조영술 등의 다양한 조합을 통한 관찰이 중요하다. 그러나 진찰이나 병력 등을 통해 어느정도 의심되는 질환을 생각하지 않고 검사를 진행한다면 아무 결과를 얻을 수 없거나, 검사를 하고서도 병변을 찾아내지 못하는 문제가 발생할 수 있다. 이를 피하기 위해 검사의 선택시 각 검사 방법의 특징과 의심되는 질환의 성격을 잘 이해하는 것이 무엇보다 중요하다.

  • Purpose : The purpose of this study is to evaluate the usefulness of arthroscopy in the management of septic coxitis in adults. Materials and Methods : The subjects were 9 patients ranging from 46 to 61 years of age. All patients were diagnosed to have septic coxitis by arthrocentesis and laboratory tests. Operative arthroscopy of the hip has been performed on the patients under supine position. All patients had a follow-up period of more than 12 months by checking ESR and CRP, and by evaluating the function with Harris hip scoring system. Results : The laboratory abnormalities returned to normal level in average of 11.9 days after the surgery. Twelve months after the surgery, all patients showed normal functional hip without any discomfort. Conclusion : Arthroscopic debridement and irrigation technique seem to have more advantages than open drainage in the management of septic coxitis minimizing the morbidity of the hip joint, while it obtains the same results as open technique.

  • Purpose: To evaluate the 2 to 4-year follow-up results after arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction using transtibial femoral tunnel at 10 or 2 O'clock position. Materials and Methods: Eighty-six ACL reconstructions could be evaluated. Evaluations included 2000 International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) subjective knee score, Lachman test, Pivot-shift test, KT-1000 arthrometer measurement, 2000 IKDC knee examination and second-look arthroscopy. Results: Seventy-five patients (87.2%) had over 80 in 2000 IKDC subjective knee score. Eighty-three patients (96.5%) had 1+firm end or negative Lachmann test. Seventy-eight patients (90.7%) had a negative Pivot-shift test. Eighty-three patients (96.5%) had less than 5 mm difference by KT-1000 arthrometer. Eighty patients (93.0%) were normal or nearly normal by 2000 IKDC knee examination. Second-look arthroscopy was done in fifteen cases. Nine cases showed good synovialization, four cases showed partial synovialization, two cases showed poor synovialization and graft failure was noted in one case. Conclusion: ACL reconstruction using transtibial femoral tunnel at 10 or 2 O'clock position resulted in a good outcome in terms of rotatory stability as well as antero-posterior stability.

  • Purpose : The purpose of this study was to evaluate the arthroscopic findings of the transplanted human allogenic meniscus including MRI changes at follow up. Materials and Methods : From Oct. 1999 to Jun. 2002, nine patients underwent arthroscopic evaluation at follow-up. We used nonirradiated cryopreserved meniscus allograft for 6 cases and fresh-frozen for 3 cases. We used bone-plug method for medial meniscus and bone-bridge method for lateral meniscus to fix the transplanted meniscus. The average follow-up time was 13 months. We evaluated the result by lysholm score, MRI and second-look arthroscopic finding. Results : The second-look arthroscopy after allogenic meniscal transplantation revealed that grafts were well incorporated with surrounding capsular tissue. But one case showed wear on the post horn and the other case which was operated at other local clinic showed tear of the anterior hem due to non-anatomic placement of bone bridge. There was improvement of average Lysholm score form 64 to 87. Conclusion : Second-look arthroscopy revealed excellent incorporation of the allograft with firm attachment and early clinical results are satisfactory. But further studies are necessary to assess whether meniscal transplantation can prevent progressive degenerative changes.

  • Purpose : To evaluate the types of the fibrous scar formation around graft after ACL reconstruction. Materials and Methods : Between Nov 1997 and Jun. 1999, the second look arthroscopy was performed on 15 knees of 14 patients. We evaluated the changes around graft and measured the tunnel position that the tibial tunnel position as a percentage along the length of the tibial plateau from the anterior-to-posterior as seen on a lateral radiograph and the femoral tunnel position as a percentage along Blumensaat's line from anterior-to-posterior as seen on a lateral radiograph. Results : The tibial tunnel position was from $27\%\;to\;58\%(mean\;41\%)$ and the femoral tunnel position was from $58\%\;to\;83\%(mean\;76\%)$, so the tunnel position was ideal in almost cases. By arthroscopic findings, the grafts were not impinged in all cases and tile fibrous scar was formed between intercondylar notch and graft in almost cases except 3 cases. The types of fibrous scar formation were 6 cases of fibrillated fiber and 5 cases of fibrous nodule and 1 case of fibrous band. Conclusion : There was no impingement on graft in all cases and various types of fibrous scars were formed around grafts.
