Imaging of the anterior cruciate ligament

World Journal of Orthopedics, 2011
The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is an important structure in maintaining the normal biomechanics of the knee and is the most commonly injured knee ligament. However, the oblique course of the ACL within the intercondylar fossa limits the visualization and assessment of the pathology of the ligament.

Editorial Commentary: LET's Keep Expanding Our Indications for Lateral Extra‐articular Procedures During Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction

Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Anatomic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction has been successful for many years in restoring translational stability, but have we done enough to restore rotational stability? Biomechanical evidence shows that anatomic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction alone may not restore pivot shift stability in cadaveric models.

Systemic Hormonal Contraceptive Use Is Associated With Greater Odds of Rotator Cuff Tears, Shoulder Instability, Dislocation, and Other Shoulder Pathologies: A Propensity Matched Epidemiological Study

Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Purpose To evaluate whether systemic estrogen‐only, progestin‐only, or combined hormonal contraceptives (HCs) are associated with increased risk of shoulder pathologies in reproductive‐age females. Methods A retrospective cohort study of female patients presenting to clinic from 2013 to 2020 and aged 13‐50 with 5 years of follow‐up was conducted using ...
