Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using an anterior cruciate ligament stump

open access: yesVideosurgery and Other Miniinvasive Techniques, 2019
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury always leads to knee pain and dysfunction for which surgical reconstruction is recommended, with good clinical results, but decreased postoperative proprioception also tends to occur. ACL stump (ACLS)-retaining ACL reconstruction and non-ACLS-retaining ACL reconstruction are the two surgical options.To ...

Anatomy of the anterior cruciate ligament [PDF]

open access: yesKnee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, 2005
AbstractThe anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is a band of dense connective tissue which courses from the femur to the tibia. The ACL is a key structure in the knee joint, as it resists anterior tibial translation and rotational loads. When the knee is extended, the ACL has a mean length of 32 mm and a width of 7–12 mm.

Strain measurement at the knee ligament insertion sites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
We describe the modification of an existing method of ligament strain measurement at the knee joint in detail. At ten fresh joint specimens we used that technique where strain gauges are attached to the ligamentous insertions and origins.

Absent Anterior Cruciate Ligament

open access: yesJournal of the Belgian Society of Radiology, 2015
This case report presents the MRI findings of aplasia of the anterior cruciate ligament with associated hypoplasia of the posterior cruciate ligament (Manner type 2). Radiographically the presence of a shallow femoral notch and hypoplastic tibial spines (the so-called "dromedar" sign) can aid in the diagnosis. Operative treatment is often not indicated

The novel epiligament theory: differences in healing failure between the medial collateral and anterior cruciate ligaments

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Orthopaedics, 2022
According to current literature, 90% of knee ligament injuries involve the medial collateral ligament or the anterior cruciate ligament. In contrast to the medial collateral ligament, which regenerates relatively well, the anterior cruciate ligament ...

Health-related quality of life, adiposity, and sedentary behavior in patients with early schizophrenia: Preliminary study [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Objective: To examine adiposity and sedentary behavior in relation to health-related quality of life (QoL) in patients with early schizophrenia. Methods: A cross-sectional study was used to assess adiposity by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry scans ...

Visualizing the anterior cruciate ligament [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Roentgenology, 1982
It is now recognized that disruption of the anterior cruciate ligament occurs more often than previously suspected and that there is a significantly higher incidence of meniscal abnormalities in its presence [1 -3]. Therefore, we believe that every effort should be made to demonstrate pathology of the anterior cruciate ligament when arthrography is ...

Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injury [PDF]

open access: yesSports Health: A Multidisciplinary Approach, 2015
Despite more than 40 years of clinical focus on the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)–injured knee, a complete understanding of the injury mechanism, the optimal treatment plan (including reconstruction), and the best protocol for rehabilitation continue to stimulate much debate.

In-out versus out-in technique for ACL reconstruction. a prospective clinical and radiological comparison [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background: Several studies have recently shown better restoration of normal knee kinematics and improvement of rotator knee stability after reconstruction with higher femoral tunnel obliquity.
