Purpose : The purpose of this study was to evaluate the gutter pathologies and the clinical results of arthroscopic treatment for ankle gutter syndrome. Materials and Methods : Seventy six patients(77 ankles) who had lesions in the ankle gutter were treated by arthroscopy. The gutter pathology could be divided into 3 categories; hypertrophic scar tissue, loose bodies and bone spurs. Fifty two patients were evaluated subjectively and functionally with authors' criteria. The follow-up period averaged 44 months(range, 2.9 year-8.5 year). Results : The incidence of the gutter lesion was $21\%$(77 ankles) among 366 ankles undergoing arthroscopy. The most common pathology was hypertrophic scar tissue. In 31 ankles$(40\%)$, the lesions were found only in gutter, and 46 ankles$(60\%)$ were associated with pathologies in other areas. All of parameters for subjective and functional evaluation were improved with statistical significance(p<0.001). Seventeen patients$(33\%)$ could returned to competitive or contact sports activity with same level of premorbid period. Conclusion : Ankle gutter is an important site of pathologies which cause chronic ankle pain, and should be explored in ankle arthroscopy. The ankle arthroscopy is a very effective treatment method fur the removal of pathologies in ankle gutter syndrome.

Purpose: This study intends to verify the usefulness of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) for estimate recovery after arthroscopic pull-out repair at root tears of medial meniscus. Materials and Methods: We performed 17 patients who examined MRI and arthroscopy among patients who had received repair of medial meniscus from November, 2007 to June, 2011. To determine restoration meniscus, we performed arthroscopy and MRI. Results: Lysholm knee scores before and after operation were average 56.4 and 79.0 and visual analogue scale (VAS) score was improved from 8 points to 3 points. From secondary look arthroscopy performed after operation, 17 cases showed stabilization after regeneration. However, In MRI, cleft sign implying root tears of medial meniscus was observed in all cases before and after operation, ghost sign was observed in 10 cases and 9 cases respectively, radial linear defect was showed 17 cases and 15 cases respectively. Conclusion: It was not useful that MRI after medial meniscus repair in non-anatomical site, to consider restoration of medial meniscus. To evaluate for recovery medial meniscus after repair more exactly, secondary arthroscopy would be required.

Purpose: To analyze the clinical results and second look arthroscopic findings of anterior cruciate ligament(ACL) reconstruction with a tibialis anterior tendon allograft and a hamstring tendon autograft. Materials and Methods: We reviewed the cases of athroscopic ACL reconstructions using allogenous tibialis anterior(TA) tendon and autogenous hamstring tendon done from March, 2002 to August, 2005 and followed-up more than 1 year. The 250 cases were included in this study and allogenous TA tendon was used in 150 cases and autogenous hamstring tendon in 100 cases. The mean follow-up period was 15 months and 14 months, respectively. The clinical evaluation was done by Lachman test, Pivot shift test, KT-1000 arthrometer and International Knee Documentation Committee(IKDC) knee score. Graft tension, synovial coverage were observed in cases of second look arthroscopy. Results: At final follow-up, there was no significance between the two groups in clinical examination. On second look arthroscopy, synovial coverage was better in autogenous hamstring tendon group than allogenous TA tendon group(p=0.005). But no difference was found in graft tension(p>0.05). Conclusion: There were no significant differences between the two groups in the clinical results. But autogenous hamstring tendon group had better synovial coverage than allogenous TA tendon group in second look arthroscopy.

We report a case of simultaneous anterior and posterior interosseous nerve syndrome in association with shoulder arthroscopy. Shoulder arthroscopy was performed in a 45-year-old male patient with left shoulder instability. In the right lateral decubitus position, under general anesthesia, traction was applied with elbow extension for 2 hours. One week after surgery, the patient revisited the clinic for weakness of the flexor of the thumb, index finger, and extensor of the fingers. Recovery was not achieved after four months of observation. Therefore, nerve exploration was performed in the anterior and posterior interosseous nerve and hourglass-like fascicular constriction was detected in the posterior interosseous nerve. The area of constriction was removed and epineural neurorrhaphy was performed. Three months after exploration, the extension function of the fingers was recovered. Recovery was achieved gradually, and, five months after nerve exploration, the symptoms were completely recovered. Simultaneous anterior and posterior interosseous nerve syndrome following shoulder arthroscopy is rare. However, it could occur due to the traction and position of the patient. Thus, the operator should be careful of traction and position of the patient.

Synovial hemangioma of the knee joint has been reported as a rare cause of pain, limitation of motion and hemarthrosis, often seen as an internal derangement of the knee. A 39-year-old woman presented with spontaneous hemarthrosis of the left knee joint and physical exam revealed a small painful mass adjacent to the medial side of the patella. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed an intra-articular tumor. Arthroscopic excision was performed and the histology was characteristic of hemangioma. Through this case, we discuss the diagnosis and treatment options for the synovial hemangioma of the knee.
