The Association of Dorsiflexion Flexibility on Knee Kinematics and Kinetics during a Drop Vertical Jump in Healthy Female Athletes [PDF]

, 2014
Purpose While previous studies have examined the association between ankle dorsiflexion flexibility and deleterious landing postures, it is not currently known how landing kinetics are influenced by ankle dorsiflexion flexibility.

Pain‐related fear induces aberrant drop jump landing biomechanics in healthy and anterior cruciate ligament reconstructed females

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is a prevalent and debilitating injury typically arising from aberrant biomechanics during landing or deceleration tasks. Pain‐related fear, a component of kinesiophobia, has been associated with poor functional outcomes and altered movement patterns in individuals with ACL reconstruction

Age‐specific over‐the‐top techniques for physeal sparing anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction in skeletally immature patients: Current concepts for prepubescents to older adolescents

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Tailored surgical strategies for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction in skeletally immature patients are presented, emphasizing techniques to minimize growth plate damage and ensure stability. As ACL injuries in youth increase, delaying surgery can lead to joint damage and poor recovery outcomes.

The vasculature and its role in the damaged and healing tendon [PDF]

, 2002
Tendon pathology has many manifestations, from spontaneous rupture to chronic tendinitis or tendinosis; the etiology and pathology of each are very different, and poorly understood. Tendon is a comparatively poorly vascularised tissue that relies heavily

Comparison of double bundle semitendinosus technique and pedicled quadriceps technique in patellar instability

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To compare clinical and functional outcomes of medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction using a minimally invasive pedicled quadriceps tendon (QT) or patella double tunnel technique with semitendinosus tendon (ST) graft in patients with recurrent patella dislocation.

Knee laxity, joint hypermobility, femoral anteversion, hamstring extensibility and navicular drop as risk factors for non‐contact ACL injury in female athletes: A 4.5‐year prospective cohort study

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To investigate whether six selected anatomical variables were associated with non‐contact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury in female team sport athletes. Methods Two hundred eighty‐seven female athletes (age 13–38 at baseline) from basketball, floorball, ice hockey and volleyball completed a baseline physical examination ...

LIMP Score and Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injury in Patient Undergoing Arthoscopy for Acute Knee Injury: An Observational Study

Journal of Nepal Medical Association
Introduction: Globally, anterior cruciate ligament injury is common but difficult clinical diagnosis in acute setting because of pain during examination and difficult availability of investigations and diagnostic arthroscopy.
