The natural history of ligamentous tears of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in children is unfavorable because of the high number of secondary meniscus lesions and early manifestation of osteoarthritis. Although their incidence is still relatively small, the number of ACL tears in children has increased over the last years.

Adolescent ACL Injury – Treatment Considerations
The Journal of Knee Surgery, 2010Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury in a skeletally immature patient presents unique treatment challenges. In many cases, conservative treatment with bracing and physical therapy fails, resulting in recurrent instability, pain, swelling, and meniscal and chondral injury.

ACL injuries and stem cell therapy
Archives of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery, 2014Tears of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) are very frequent injuries, particularly in young and active people. Arthroscopic reconstruction using tendon auto- or allograft represents the gold-standard for the management of ACL tears. Interestingly, the ACL has the potential to heal upon intensive non-surgical rehabilitation procedures.

The anterior cruciate ligament of the knee (ACL) is one of four primary ligaments holding the knee. As more women practice sports such as soccer and basketball, it has become increasingly apparent that females are at a higher risk for non-contact ACL injuries than males.

Comprehensive Clinical Examination of ACL Injuries
Clinics in Sports MedicineA comprehensive clinical examination of the potentially anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)-deficient knee should proceed as follows: inspection; palpation; range of motion; varus and valgus stress; neurovascular status; and finally provocative maneuvers. The Lachman, anterior drawer, Lever, and pivot shift tests are all greater than 90% specific for ACL ...

Tibiofemoral joint congruence is lower in females with ACL injuries than males with ACL injuries
Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, 2017Previous research has demonstrated that women have a higher risk of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury than men. Tibiofemoral articular geometry may play a role in the occurrence of ACL tears. The purpose of this study was to analyze the gender-specific geometric characteristics differences in tibiofemoral morphology in ACL-deficient patients ...

ACL Injury Prevention Warm-Up Programs
2012This chapter focuses on ACL injury prevention “warm-up” programs which have published data on ACL injury rates, athletic performance indicators, or neuromuscular factors. The goal is to determine if a recommendation may be made from the available peer-reviewed literature to date on the usage of these types of programs.
