AJSM April 2018 5-in-5 Podcast

Five articles from the April 2018 issue summarized in five minutes, with the addition of a brief editorial commentary. The 5-in-5 feature is designed to give readers an overview of articles that may pique their interest and encourage more detailed reading. It may also be used by busy readers who would prefer a brief audio summary in order to select the articles they want to read in full.

The featured articles for this month are "Distal Clavicular Osteochondral Autograft Augmentation for Glenoid Bone Loss: A Comparison of Radius of Restoration Versus Latarjet Graft", "Biomechanical Evaluation of a Single- Versus Double-Tunnel Coracoclavicular Ligament Reconstruction With Acromioclavicular Stabilization for Acromioclavicular Joint Injuries", "Descriptive Epidemiology of the MOON Shoulder Instability Cohort", "Patellar Tendon Repair Augmentation With a Knotless Suture Anchor Internal Brace: A Biomechanical Cadaveric Study", and "Subacromial Local Anesthetics Do Not Interfere With Rotator Cuff Healing After Arthroscopic Repair."

AJSM April 2018 Podcast: Preoperative Tibial Subchondral Bone Marrow Lesion Patterns and Associations With Outcomes After Isolated Meniscus Allograft Transplantation

The association between preoperative tibial subchondral bone marrow lesion (BML) patterns and outcomes after isolated meniscus allograft transplantation (MAT) are unknown. The purpose of this study was to determine (1) if a superior classification means exists (ie, high interrater reliability [IRR]) for grading tibial subchondral BML before isolated MAT and (2) whether quality and/or severity of preoperative tibial subchondral BML patterns was associated with clinical outcomes and/or failure rates after isolated MAT.

Nearly two-thirds of patients who undergo isolated MAT have subchondral BML on preoperative MRI. Our findings suggest that increasing BML size (Welsch et al) is correlated with worse postoperative pain measures (KOOS pain, WOMAC pain) and worse activity ratings (Marx Activity Rating Scale). Additionally, increasing disruption or depression of the normal contour of the cortical surface, with or without lesion contiguity with the subjacent articular surface (Costa-Paz et al), is correlated with greater postoperative satisfaction.
