Video Summary
In this video, Bettina Henkel discusses ACL repair and its effectiveness. She explains that studies have shown ACL repair failure rates ranging from 0% to 20%, but more recent techniques have improved results. The ideal tear for repair is minimal tissue loss with good tissue quality, often seen in proximal femoral avulsions. Factors such as tear location, timing of surgery, tear parts, synovial coverage, and patient age can influence repair results. Studies have also explored techniques like internal brace, tape augmentation, and biological augmentation to improve stability and healing. Overall, careful patient selection and consideration of various factors can lead to successful ACL repair outcomes. No credits were mentioned.
