Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
Intra-articular sufentanil in multimodal analgesic management after outpatient arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: a prospective, randomized, double-blinded study.
This prospective, randomized, blinded study was designed to evaluate the effectiveness of intra-articular sufentanil, ropivacaine, and clonidine compared with that of ropivacaine and clonidine without sufentanil on postoperative pain after arthroscopic reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament of the knee. ⋯ Level I, therapeutic randomized controlled trial.
-
This study was undertaken to evaluate the long-term radiographic appearance and clinical outcome after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction by use of either bone-patellar tendon-bone (BPTB) or hamstring tendon (HT) autografts and to evaluate how associated meniscal injuries affect the prevalence of osteoarthritis (OA). ⋯ Level III, therapeutic, retrospective comparative study.

Randomized Controlled Trial Comparative Study
Isolated repair of the medial patellofemoral ligament in primary dislocation of the patella: a prospective randomized study.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of surgical reinsertion of the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) to the adductor tubercle compared with conservative treatment in patients with primary dislocation of the patella. ⋯ Level I, therapeutic randomized controlled trial.
