OVERVIEW
The English bibliography also uses the term “tennis elbow”, however, it is an injury with a ... misleading name. Elbow epicondylitis (lateral epicondylitis, another term in the literature) is not only a “privilege” of tennis players. In fact, it is about are tiny tears in the extensor carpi radialis brevis – namely, in the muscle, which helps in the stabilization of the wrist when the elbow is extended - which are mainly attributed to repetitive movements or hand overuse.
HIGH RISK GROUPS
Whether it is about a chef, a professional athlete, or an amateur painter, anyone who frequently and intensely uses the forearm muscles can suffer from epicondylitis. Statistics, however, indicate that this specific and particularly painful tendonitis “strikes” mainly women aged 30-50, not even excluding children. Only 5% of the incidents are associated with tennis - usually in these cases the disruption is acute and is attributed to poor technique.
WHICH ARE THE SYMPTOMS?
Τα πιο συχνά συμπτώματα, τα οποία αναπτύσσονται σταδιακά σε βάθος ημερών ή και εβδομάδων και συνήθως μετά από ιδιαίτερα έντονες περιόδους κούρασης, είναι πόνος ή κάψιμο στο εξωτερικό μέρος του αγκώνα. Έτσι με την πάροδο του χρόνου γίνεται εξαιρετικά οδυνηρό για τον ασθενή να σηκώσει ή να κρατήσει πράγματα, ακόμα και να αγγίξει το εξωτερικό του αγκώνα του. Είναι δε πολύ πιθανό να υπάρχει επικονδυλίτιδα και στα δύο χέρια.

FAILED SURGERY DEFINITION
Epidemiological data indicate that the repair procedures of the anterior cruciate ligament disruptions are considered to have the highest success rates in the field of orthopaedic surgery, as they range from 75% to 99%, depending on the lesion and the patient. However, even with modern techniques, there is also a percentage of patients, whose surgery is not considered successful, for a number of reasons.
Referring to literature, there is no specific definition regarding when a disruption reconstruction surgery has failed, but surgical experience has shown that it is related to knee instability, persistent pain, and stiffness. Broadly speaking, namely, when the joint does not move as freely or as far as normal. Also, it is then when a new disruption in the already operated cruciate ligament, is very likely to occur
CAUSES OF THE FAILURE
The most common causes are a new, serious injury, or the graft placement in a poor position, based on older techniques, which are no longer applicable. A study which was presented at the annual meeting of the American Orthopaedic Society for Sports Medicine in 2014, underlines that the risk of a new injury (in the already operated cruciate ligament or the contralateral cruciate ligament) has increased among young and active athletes – according to the scholars, the graft which was used also plays an important role (the patellar tendon appears to have a lower rate of a re-disruption compared to the hamstrings).
HOW TO TREAT THE RECURRENT DISRUPTION
In order to deal with the new disruption in the anterior cruciate ligament, the surgeon needs specialized knowledge and should pay attention to details. The surgical approach is personalized, according to the patient’s age, activity level and functional requirements, and should also take various parameters, such as the knee instability and meniscal lesions, into account.
SURGICAL PROCEDURE
Often, during the new arthroscopic syndesmoplasty, a reinforced and more stable autograft is selected, while one of the existing surgical options is the reinforcement with an extra autograft, which is placed on the outside of the knee for greater stability (ALL, the known anterolateral ligament of the knee , or also a reinforcement through a modified Lemaire procedure).
WHAT TO EXPECT AFTER SURGERY
The autograft is received through the patient themselves and the surgery is performed arthroscopically. Usually, a 24-hour hospitalisation is required, and crutches are used for walking for about 5 weeks after surgery. The return to sporting activities is estimated at around 10-12 months.
