Modified Elmslie-Trillat Procedure for Distal Realignment of Patella Tendon
Filho, RB; Monteiro, AM; Andrade, R; Michael, MJ; Sevivas, N; Pereira, B; Sarmento, A; Espregueira-Mendes, JPatellofemoral dysfunction, due to either a patellofemoral malalignment or patellar instability, is a complex and debilitating condition that significantly decreases the knee function. Conservative management may yield significant clinical outcomes; however, when morphologic anomalies are identified, the surgical approach should be employed. Hence, several surgical procedures have been described in the scientif...
Neuropatia compressiva do nervo supraescapular
Vieira-Ferreira, N; Sevivas, N; Vieira da Silva, MIntrodução: a neuropatia compressiva do nervo supraescapular foi descrita pela primeira vez em 1952 mas só recentemente tem sido mais compreendida e diagnosticada. A sua etiologia nem sempre é clara e o seu diagnóstico ainda não está bem estabelecido. O tratamento é controverso, especialmente a opção pela libertação artroscópica.

Espregueira-Mendes, J; Pereira, H; Sevivas, N; Varanda, P; Vieira da Silva, M; Monteiro, A; Oliveira, JM; Reis, RLPURPOSE: Treatment of large cartilage lesions of the knee in weight-bearing areas is still a controversy and challenging topic. Autologous osteochondral mosaicplasty has proven to be a valid option for treatment but donor site morbidity with most frequently used autografts remains a source of concern. This study aims to assess clinical results and safety profile of autologous osteochondral graft from the upper ...
Assessment of rotatory laxity in anterior cruciate ligament-deficient knees usi...
Espregueira-Mendes, J; Pereira, H; Sevivas, N; Passos, C; Vasconcelos, JC; Monteiro, A; Oliveira, JM; Reis, RLPURPOSE: Objective evaluation of both antero-posterior translation and rotatory laxity of the knee remains a target to be accomplished. This is true for both preoperative planning and postoperative assessment of different ACL reconstruction emerging techniques. The ideal measurement tool should be simple, accurate and reproducible, while enabling to assess both ‘‘anatomy’’ and ‘‘function’’ during the same exami...
