THE ANTERIOR CRUCIATE LIGAMENT AND ARTHRITIS

Clinics in Sports Medicine, 1999
In this article, the authors assess the natural history of osteoarthritis in the anterior cruciate ligament deficient knee, and examine the factors which may influence its progression: meniscal resection, osteochondral lesions, malalignment, concomitant ligamentous pathology, biological factors, and surgery. The role of anterior cruciate reconstruction,

The Anterior Cruciate Ligament

2014
The anterior cruciate ligament of the knee (ACL) is the most reconstructed ligament in the human body. Granan et al. gathered data from Denmark, Norway and Sweden as part of the Scandinavian registry. The overall annual incidence of primary ACL reconstructions ranged between 32 and 38 per 100,000 inhabitants.

Reconstruction of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament

Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 1976
A 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.

The Normal Anterior Cruciate Ligament as a Model for Tensioning Strategies in Anterior Cruciate Ligament Grafts

The American Journal of Sports Medicine, 2005
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.

Anterior Cruciate Ligament

2016
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is a very frequently injured ligament in many sports and usually causes long layoff from the athlete activity. Epidemiology, injury mechanisms, clinical and diagnostic examination, and surgical reconstruction in athletes are pointed out.

Anterior Cruciate Ligament

2003
The knee should be positioned with 10°–15° of external rotation to bring the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) into the sagittal plane. Alternatively, the same effect can be achieved by tilting of the imaging plane (sagittal oblique orientation). Specific queries regarding the area of the ACL may require a slice thickness of 3 mm.

Imaging the anterior cruciate ligament

Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 2002
MR 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, 1983
The 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, 2013
Anterior 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 ...
