Reconstruction of Chronic Quadriceps and Achilles Tendon Ruptures Using Achilles Allografts: Clinical Findings and Review of Literature

Cătălin-Adrian Miu, Mihai Hurmuz, Luminița-Oana Miu, Daniel Ceachir et autres

Background/Objectives: Chronic ruptures of the quadriceps and Achilles tendons present significant reconstructive challenges due to factors such as tendon retraction, scar tissue formation, and compromised tissue quality. Traditional repair methods, including V–Y tendinoplasty, autografts, and synthetic scaffolds, often prove inadequate for large …

Non-Anatomic Reconstruction in Multiligament Knee Injuries: A Functional Approach

Mihai Hurmuz, Cătălin-Adrian Miu, Daniel Ceachir, Romulus Fabian Tatu et autres

Background/Objectives: Multiligament knee injuries, involving damage to multiple stabilizing structures, present a significant challenge in orthopedic surgery, often resulting in knee instability and compromised function. While anatomic ligament reconstruction has been traditionally advocated, non-anatomic techniques may provide effective alternatives, particularly for patients …

ACL Primary Repair with Bone Marrow Stimulation and Growth Factors. A Review of Literature

Romulus Fabian Tatu, Mihai Hurmuz, Cătălin Adrian Miu

Abstract Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) ruptures represent a common pathology, especially in young and active patients. Spontaneous repair, although reported in some studies, is altered by local conditions, thus emerges the need to perform reconstruction of the ACL. It is reported that …

Morphological and functional characterization of femoral head drilling-derived mesenchymal stem cells.

Romulus Fabian Tatu, D N Anușca, S Gróza, Laura Marusciac et autres

Adult mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) were primary identified as bone marrow-derived cells, fibroblast-like morphology, and adherent to plastic surfaces of in vitro culture plate. Their identification criteria evolved in time to a well-established panel of markers (expression of CD73, CD90, and CD105) …

A Mechanical Vibration Method Used to Investigate the Evolution of Fractures Fixed with Biocompatible Materials

Romulus Fabian Tatu, Virgil Ivaschescu, Florina Maria Bojin, Mihai Hurmuz et autres

Difficulty to objectively determine the moment of bone fracture consolidation by classical imaging methods makes necessary the development of a method that will allow establishing, by objective criteria, the moment in which biomechanical loading of the injured bone segment may be permitted. …
