Video Summary
The video discusses a study on elite athletes undergoing primary ACL reconstruction. Elite athletes have a higher risk of re-rupture, which can be career-ending. The study evaluates the effectiveness of adding a modified Lemaire procedure, called lateral extraticular tenodesis (LET), in reducing the risk of re-rupture. It also compares the outcomes of combining LET with patella tendon ACL reconstruction and hamstring tendon reconstruction. The study includes a retrospective review of 456 elite athletes and finds that the addition of LET reduces re-rupture rates. The authors suggest considering LET for elite athletes undergoing ACL reconstruction. The study acknowledges the limitations of relying on clinical and team notes rather than a database.
