Background There is some confusion about the relationship between the tension placed on the graft and the joint position used in the fixation of anterior cruciate ligament grafts. This is because of deficiency in accurate basic science about this important interaction in the normal and reconstructed anterior cruciate ligament.

Reconstruction of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament
Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 1976A report is given of a personal series of 72 cases of injury of the anterior cruciate ligament, reconstructed by use of modifications of the Jones procedure. After one year, stability of the knee without a drawer sign was obtained in 80 per cent of the cases.

Imaging the anterior cruciate ligament
Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 2002MR imaging has surpassed all other imaging modalities to become the "gold standard" for imaging evaluation of ACL injury. The accuracy and sensitivity of MR imaging for evaluation of ACL tears is excellent when correlated with clinical tests and arthroscopic findings, and is improved in equivocal cases with assessment of secondary signs for ACL tear ...

Biomechanics of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament
Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1983The principal role of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is to resist anterior displacement of the tibia on the femur. The ACL also has a major role in resisting internal rotation. The posterior fibers are longest, or most tense, in extension, and are therefore the major resistance to hyperextension and are more susceptible to injury in extension ...

Anterior cruciate ligament tears in children
The Surgeon, 2013Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries have become common in children and adolescents who practice competitive sports, accounting for 0.5-3% of all ACL injuries. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is useful for diagnosis and treatment planning, but is no better than clinical examination, especially when the MRI is interpreted by less experienced ...

The Anterior Cruciate Ligament
2016The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is the most common surgically treated ligament rupture in the adult knee. Disruption of the ACL has important consequences for knee kinematics, activities of daily living, return to sport and progression to symptomatic knee osteoarthritis in later life.

Reconstruction of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament
Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part H: Journal of Engineering in Medicine, 1992Ligaments are strong collagenous structures that act as constraints on joint motion, thus confining the articular surfaces to more or less the same paths. In so doing they prevent arbitrary apposition of these surfaces from occurring and resulting in abnormal stresses which may damage the joint surfaces.

Prosthetic Anterior Cruciate Ligament
Clinics in Sports Medicine, 19911. All synthetic anterior cruciate ligaments can be divided into three broad categories--permanent, stent, and ingrowth. 2. Theoretical advantages (e.g., potential increased strength, decreased harvest morbidity, time to return to sport, ease of insertion, ease of revision) warrant further attempts to develop synthetic ACLs. 3. Permanent ACLs require 5-

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1987
Acute replacement of the canine anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) with a frozen, bone-ligament-bone anterior cruciate ligament preparation was studied using biochemical, immunologic, and biomechanical testing methods. Nine dogs were used for the study, six dogs received allografts and three received autografts.
