Published results showed patients who underwent ACL reconstruction with a hamstring tendon graft had decreased knee flexion strength compared with patients who received a patellar tendon graft at long-term follow-up.

DENVER — Younger patients who undergo revision ACL reconstruction may be at risk for limited range of motion, graft failure, poor function and pain at minimum 10-year follow-up, according to presented results.

DENVER — Results presented here showed patients older than 30 years who underwent isolated ACL reconstruction had a threefold higher risk for graft failure compared with those who had reconstruction plus a lateral extra-articular procedure.

PHILADELPHIA — Preemptive kidney transplant in older adults with a high kidney donor profile index pre-transplant may be linked to better patient and graft survival, data show.

Receiving a kidney transplant from a deceased donor who had dialysis before donation may be tied to a higher rate of delayed graft function, according to a published study.

Ventris Medical received FDA 510(k) clearance of its Amplify standalone bone graft putty, according to a company press release.

SAN FRANCISCO — Results presented here showed patients with increasing posterior tibial slope and varus alignment after ACL reconstruction with hamstring autograft had inferior graft maturation.

Use of the posterior auricular muscle complex graft as a spacer in upper eyelid retraction was first presented at the 20th annual scientific symposium of the American Society of Ophthalmic Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery in 1989.
