This study was performed to report the signalment, history, and outcome of modified retinacular imbrication technique (MRIT) for treatment of cranial cruciate ligament rupture (CCLR) in dogs. Nine dogs (12 stifles) presented with chronic hindlimb lameness associated with CCLR. They were 7 males and 2 females. Six were Yorkshire terriers. Mean age was 8 years (range,2 to 14 years), and mean weight was 5.6kg (range, $1.8{\sim}19kg$). Three dogs had bilateral CCLR and six dogs had unilateral CCLR (2 left stifles and 4 right stifles). Nine stifles (8 dogs) had concomitant patellar medial luxation. Surgery was performed in eight stifles (5 dogs) and recovery rate of 100%. Three stifles (2 dogs) were underwent simultaneously femoral trochleoplasty. Mean time to the normal gait after surgery was 30 days. There were not postoperative complications.

Various methods for fixation of graft have been widely used for reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament. However, the biomechanical strength of each fixation techniques are not fully understood. The purpose of this study is to compare the pull out strength of different fixation techniques which is probably the most important factor for the success at the initial stage of healing. Biomechanical test was carried out to measure and compare the pull out tensile strength of five different fixation techniques in 35 pig(Yorkshire) knees. ANOVA and Duncan multiple comparison test was applied for statistical analysis. In the two fixation techniques with bone patellar tendon bone graft, the mean maximum tensile strength was $1333.4{\pm}148.5N$ with titanium interference screw, while it was $1310.1{\pm}168.9N$ with biodegradable interference screw. The failure mode were pulled out of bone plugs from the femoral tunnel in majority cases. In the fixations with hamstring tendon, the mean maximum tensile strength were $1405.9{\pm}135.1N$ with SemiFix screw, $820.3{\pm}104.5N$ with biodegradable interference screw, and $682.1{\pm}54.2N$ with Endobutton. The mode of failure was variable in each technique. The tendon was pulled out from the tunnel in biodegradable interference screw fixation, the screw was bent in the SemiFix system, and the polyester tape were ruptured or the buttons were pulled into tunnel in Endobutton fixation. The mean maximum tensile strength of two interference screws with bone patellar tendon bone was statistically comparable to that of SemiFix with hamstring tendon. However biodegradable interference screw and Endobutton with hamstring tendon showed weaker maximum tensile strength than above three fixation techniques (P<0.05).

Between March 1992 and December 1995 at St. Paul's, Holy Family, St. Vincent and Eui Jung Bu St. Mary Hospitals Catholic University, two hundred and eighty patients underwent arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament(ACL) reconstruction using central one-third bone-patellar tendon-bone autograft. Nine of these patients had limitation of motion(LOM) defined as a knee flexion contracture greater than 10o or less than 125o of passive knee flexion. This study analyzes the causes of LOM after ACL reconstruction as well as the results after passive manipulation or arthroscopic adhesiolysis under anesthesia for LOM. The results are as follows: 1. Out of nine patients, initially three had isolated ACL injuries and six had combined injuries. Seven of nine cases were perfomed by ACL reconstruction within four weeks and two were performed after four weeks following injury. 2. Treatment for LOM after ACL reconstruction was done after 5.5 months on average. 3. Arthroscopic adhesiolysis was done in 5 cases. There were fibrous adhesions at suprapatellar pouch and femoral intercondylar notch in all cases, respectively, infrapatellar fat pad in 3 cases and medial para patellar gutter in 2 cases. Two patients had a fibrous nodule, "cyclops" lesion, which formed anterior to the ACL graft. 4. Range of motion and Lysholm knee score were much improved following passive manipulation or arthroscopic adhesiolysis under anesthesia for LOM.

From 1989 to 1994, authors have reconstructed the posterior cruciate ligament(PCL) in 51 knees with an autogenous central one-third of the patellar tendon by transtibial two tunnel technique, but there were not a few cases of unfavorable results. So from January 1995, we have reconstructed the PCL deficient knees by "modified tibial inlay technique" to avoid the grafted tendon abrasion at the posterior opening of the tibial tunnel(killer turn). Purpose of this study was to compare the results of two surgical techniques and what its advantages and disadvantages are. We could follow up 39 cases of transtibial two tunnel techique group(group A) more than one year, average being 23.7 months and 21 cases of modified tibial inlay technique group(group B) more than 12 months, average being 14.7 months. The clinical results were evaluated by the OAK knee scoring system ($M{\ddot{u}}ller$'s criteria) and the posteror stress roentgenography (push view) with Telos stress device compared with the uninjured knees. The arthroscopic second-look findings were also evaluated. In group A : The $M{\ddot{u}}ller$'s knee score was average 80.1 points, the posteror displacement in push view was average 4.4mm at the last follow up. There were 17 cases(44%) of unfavorable results which showed unstable posterior displacement more than 4mm compared with the uninjured knee in push view. Among the 19 cases of arthroscopic second look examinations, nearly normal PCL appearances of the grafted tendons were noted only in 9 cases(47%). In group B : The $M{\ddot{u}}ller$'s knee score was average 86.7 points, the posterior displacemnet in push view was average 3.6mm at the last follow up. There were 5 cases(23.8%) of unfavorable results which showed unstable posterior displacement more than 4mm compared with the uninjured knee in push view but 4 out of 5 cases showed 6mm posterior displacement in push views. Among the 7 cases of arthroscopic second-look examinations, 6 cases(86%) showed nearly normal PCL appearances of the grafted tendons. In modified tibial inlay technique of PCL reconstruction, it was easier to pull out the BPTB and in cases of remained laxed meniscofemoral ligament it was easier to preserve the remained structures than transtibial two tunnel technique. We expect the "modified tibial inlay technique" may solve the problem of grafted patellar tendon abrasion at the posterior orifice of tibial tunnel and may contribute to the successful PCL reconstruction.

Twelve dogs weighing less than 10 kg underwent unilateral TTO to stabilize the stifle joint with cranial cruciate ligament rupture. Surgical findings, intra-operative and post-operative complications were recorded. Radiographic examinations were performed for 8 weeks following surgery. Postoperative outcome was evaluated using a visual analogue lameness scoring system. Mean preoperative PTA (the angle created by the intersection of the tibial plateau extrapolation line and the patellar tendon) was 103.8 degrees. Mean tibial wedge angle was 16.6 degrees. Mean postoperative PTA was 92.1 degrees. Intraoperatively, fracture through the caudal tibial cortex occurred in all dogs, through the distal tibial crest cortex in 2 dogs, through the lateral tibial cortex in 2 dogs and through the fibula in 1 dog. Four-week postoperative radiographs demonstrated evidence of progressive bone union at osteotomy site and complete unions were identified at 8 week in 10 dogs. All dogs were healed in 11 weeks. Most of dogs revealed weak lameness in 4 weeks and normal ambulation in 8 weeks postoperatively except for only one dog returned in 11 weeks. Despite frequent minor complication, it appears that the TTO is an alternative procedure for management of cranial cruciate ligament rupture in small breed dogs.

The morphogenesis of the stifle joint in Korean cattle embryos and fetuses was observed by radiography, alizarin red S stain and light microscopy. Fourty-eight(48) embryos and fetuses, ranging from 11mm to 160mm in crown-rump length (C-R L), were used for this study. The experimental samples were divided into twelve separate groups according to their C-R L. The first to the nineth group ranged from 11-100mm in C-R L, spaced at 10mm intervals. The tenth to the twelfth group ranged in C-R L from 101mm to 160mm, and were spaced at 20mm intervals. The results were as follows; 1. The first appearance of the interzone between the femur and tibia was formed in the second experimental group. The patellar ligament and cruciate ligament appeared in the third group and the patella, menisci and synovial cavity appeared in the fourth group. 2. The lateral and medial menisci were first obseved in the fourth group, and these structures showed crescent shape in the fifth group of the fetuses. 3. The first appearance of the femoro-tibial joint cavity was in the third group. The fifth group contained the first appearance of the patello-femoral cavity. Also, the femoro-tibial cavity was divided into two cavities by the anterior and posterior cruciate ligament.

전방십자인대 재건술에 자가 슬건과 자가 슬개건이 널리 사용되고 있으나 최근 자가 슬건의 사용이 증가하고 있다. 그 이유는 높은 최대 인장 강도, 낮은 공여부 이환률, 이식건의 고정 방법의 발전과 같은 장점 때문으로 보인다. 전방십자인대 재건술을 위해 슬건을 채취 후 슬건이 실제로 재생된다는 연구는 이러한 이론적 장점을 크게 부각시켰다. 그러나 내 회전력의 약화와 굴곡력의 감소와 같은 단점에 대한 우려가 있다. 이러한 굴곡력의 감소에 대해서 논쟁이 있으며, 과연 슬건의 재생 후에 굴곡력을 회복할 수 있는지에 대해 연구가 필요하다. 본 종설에서는 자가슬건의 장점과 단점, 슬건의 재생에 관한 최근의 연구를 고찰하고 저자들의 연구와 경험을 정리하여 기존의 연구와 비교하였다.
