“…Two patients did develop new cyst formation from the 7 to 10 year scan, which confirms there is still biological activity taking place between these periods. Cyst formation is well described [16], with a number of postulated theories, such as a local foreign body reaction, along with the more conventional communication to the joint [17]. There are no previous 10 year 4-strand hamstrings MRI studies, which have reported cyst formation at this late stage.…”

“…Successful filling of bone defects with β-tricalcium phosphate has been reported by Hirata et al (2006). However, tibial cyst formation has been reported in an anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using a bioabsorbable screw made of β-tricalcium phosphate and poly L-lactide (Malhan et al 2002). Grafting with hydroxyapatite (Hamson et al 1995, Matsumine et al 2004) or β-tricalcium phosphate (Hirata et al 2006) requires several months for bone incorporation.…”

Background and purpose The defect that results after curettage of a bone tumor is usually filled in the same way. We report the outcome in patients with benign bone tumors that were treated with curettage but no filling.Patients and methods We retrospectively studied 78 patients (mean age at the time of operation was 27 (6–73) years, 44 men) who had had a benign bone tumor curetted with no filling of the defect. The commonest tumor types were giant cell tumor of bone (27), fibrous dysplasia (13), enchondroma (9), and simple bone cyst (7). The mean size of the lesions was 35 (2–196) cm3. Normal activities, including full weight bearing for lower extremity lesions, were allowed after 3 months or less. The patients were followed for an average of 10 (1.2–21) years.Results A postoperative fracture with a minor displacement occurred in 3 patients, in 2 of them because of local recurrence. All fractures healed. Local recurrence occurred in 9 patients; 7 of them had a giant cell tumor. Repeated local recurrences necessitated above-knee amputation in 1 patient. All other patients had unrestricted activities of daily living.Interpretation Routine filling of curetted bone lesions does not appear to be necessary from a mechanical point of view.

“…During degradation, hydrolysis may occur and particles may be phagocytosed by macrophages. Such process may be associated with formation of cysts 19, 20, 21. The authors postulate that screw migration can also be related to some complications in the process.…”

Knee ligament reconstructions are commonly performed orthopedic procedures. Graft fixation is generally performed with metallic or absorbable interference screws. In a recent study, only ten reports of screw migration were retrieved; of these, only one was not related to the anterior cruciate ligament, and the majority was related to the use of poly-l-lactic acid (PLLA) screws. Only one case retrieved in the literature reported screw migration in reconstructions of the posterolateral corner, and that was to the intra-articular region. In the present article, the authors report a case of extra-articular and transcutaneous migration of a poly-l/d-lactide (PDLLA) interference screw following popliteal tendon reconstruction. Besides being the first case of popliteal tendon migration with extra-articular screw migration, no reports of PDLLA screw migration were retrieved in the literature.
