Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using an anterior cruciate ligament stump
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 ...

Lower limb kinematics, kinetics and coordination during a land and cut task; the role of gender and previous ACL injury [PDF]
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury continues to be a constant adversary to field sports athletes. Females are widely acknowledged as being at an increased risk of ACL injury, in comparison to males.

All-Inside Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction With Accurate Measurement Technique. [PDF]
Abstract The all‐inside anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction technique is characterized by closed bone sockets for anterior cruciate ligament graft passage and typically adopts suspensory fixation instead of screw fixation. Inaccurate determination of the intra‐articular length (IAL) of the graft is associated with an elevated risk of graft ...

Biomechanics and anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction [PDF]
For years, bioengineers and orthopaedic surgeons have applied the principles of mechanics to gain valuable information about the complex function of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). The results of these investigations have provided scientific data for surgeons to improve methods of ACL reconstruction and postoperative rehabilitation.

Infections in Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction [PDF]
Context: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction is a safe, common, and effective method of restoring stability to the knee after injury, but evolving techniques of reconstruction carry inherent risk. Infection after ACL reconstruction, while rare, carries a high morbidity, potentially resulting in a ...

Nanoscopic‐Assisted Anterior Cruciate Ligament−Posterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction [PDF]
Abstract Knee arthroscopy has allowed us to continue performing surgeries that are minimally invasive and allow patients to have a quick recovery. Multiligamentous knee reconstruction with regards to the anterior cruciate ligament and posterior cruciate ligament can be done in a minimally ...

The effect of polystyrene sodium sulfonate grafting on polyethylene terephthalate artificial ligaments on in vitro mineralisation and in vivo bone tissue integration [PDF]
This study investigates the impact of polystyrene sodium sulfonate (PolyNaSS) grafting onto the osseointegration of a polyethylene terephthalate artificial ligament (Ligament Advanced Reinforcement System, LARS ) used for Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL).

Persisting side-to-side differences in bone mineral content, but not in muscle strength and tendon stiffness after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction [PDF]
Tendon stiffness may be involved in limiting peak musculoskeletal forces and thus may constitute an upper limit for bone strength. The patellar tendon bone (PTB) graft, which is harvested from the patellar tendon during surgical reconstruction of the ...
