Incidence and Prevention of Injury of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament in Females [PDF]

, 2011
According to the American College of Sports Medicine, women are two to eight times more likely to sustain an anterior cruciate ligament injury than men at the same level of performance. This high incidence of women with an ACL injury is thought to be due

Common mistakes and pitfalls in magnetic resonance imaging of the knee [PDF]

, 2016
This pictorial review presents an overview of common interpretation errors and pitfalls in magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the knee. Instead of being exhaustive, we will emphasize those pitfalls that are most commonly encountered by young residents ...

Sonographic Patellar and Quadriceps Tendon Length Pre‐ and Post‐Autograft Harvest: Reliability and Concurrent Validity

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extensor mechanism autografts used for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, namely bone‐patellar tendon‐bone (BPTB) and quadriceps tendon (QT), may result in harvest‐site tendon elongation. Extended field of view (EFOV) ultrasound imaging has the potential to evaluate changes in tendon length, but the reliability and validity of these ...

Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction With Preservation of Femoral Anterior Cruciate Ligament Stump [PDF]

Arthroscopy Techniques, 2014
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction with preservation of either the remnant or the tibial stump is performed with the hope of improving the vascularization and proprioceptive function of the graft. Remnant preservation is technically difficult because it hinders the visualization of the intra-articular tunnel site.

Reduced Muscle Strength Can Alter the Impact of Gait Modifications on Knee Cartilage Mechanics

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Muscle strength can substantially influence knee joint loading, stability, and cartilage biomechanics, all of which are important factors in the onset and progression of knee osteoarthritis (KOA). Noninvasive rehabilitation methods, such as gait modifications, are suggested to effectively alter knee joint loading, potentially helping to ...

Estrogen and Progesterone Exhibit Distinct Yet Coordinated Roles in the Regulation of Tendon Extracellular Matrix Remodeling

Journal of Orthopaedic Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Remodeling of the extracellular matrix (ECM) is required for the proper healing, strengthening, and maintenance of tendon tissue. There are well‐documented sex differences in tendon injury rates and healing outcomes, often attributed to either innate differences in tissue structure and resident cell signaling or the influence of sex hormones ...

Persistent Biomechanical Alterations After ACL Reconstruction Are Associated With Early Cartilage Matrix Changes Detected by Quantitative MR. [PDF]

, 2016
BackgroundThe effectiveness of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction in preventing early osteoarthritis is debated. Restoring the original biomechanics may potentially prevent degeneration, but apparent pathomechanisms have yet to be described.
