Reconstruction of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament
Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 1976A 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.

Revision Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery, 2017➤ Technical errors such as nonanatomic tunnel placement are some of the most common causes of graft failure after primary anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR).➤ When considering a revision ACLR in a patient with ACL graft failure, it is crucial to perform preoperative imaging, which should include an initial ...

Reconstruction of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament
Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part H: Journal of Engineering in Medicine, 1992Ligaments are strong collagenous structures that act as constraints on joint motion, thus confining the articular surfaces to more or less the same paths. In so doing they prevent arbitrary apposition of these surfaces from occurring and resulting in abnormal stresses which may damage the joint surfaces.

Arthroscopic Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
Clinics in Sports Medicine, 1987Our understanding of the structure and function of the anterior cruciate ligament has progressed rapidly over the past decade. Arthroscope-assisted anterior cruciate ligament replacement is a new procedure that allows isometric placement of the anterior cruciate ligament graft.

Allograft Reconstruction of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament
Clinics in Sports Medicine, 1991This article reviews the scientific basis for the use of allografts in reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament of the knee. The possibility and incidence of postsurgical rejection and disease transmission with allograft usage are discussed. The operative technique of the author and the rationale for his postoperative rehabilitation protocol is

Pediatric Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
Ortopedia Traumatologia Rehabilitacja, 2023The incidence of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries in children and adolescents has been growing recently. This problem is a challenge for the treating orthopedic surgeon, especially when the patient is in the prepubertal period with a high growth potential.

Failure of Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
Clinics in Sports Medicine, 2013Failure after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction is a potentially devastating event that affects a predominantly young and active population. This review article provides a comprehensive analysis of the potential causes of failure, including graft failure, loss of motion, extensor mechanism dysfunction, osteoarthritis, and infection.

Pediatric Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
Orthopedics, 2018The rate of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) ruptures diagnosed among the pediatric and adolescent population is increasing. The rise in ACL injuries may be attributed to earlier sports specialization, year-round sports participation, increased awareness, and improved ability to diagnose the injury.

Revision Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
The American Journal of Sports Medicine, 2010Revision reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) introduces several diagnostic and technical challenges in comparison with primary ACL reconstruction. With the increasing numbers of original reconstructions combined with the continued expectation of high-level athletic participation, revision ACL reconstruction is likely to become more ...

THE BIOLOGY OF ANTERIOR CRUCIATE LIGAMENT RECONSTRUCTIONS
Orthopedics, 1993ABSTRACT Ligaments, including the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), have a limited biological response to injury. The same healing process affects graft tissues used to reconstruct the ACL. These biological processes interact with mechanical forces to transform the grafts into tissues, which are expected to functionally replace the ACL ...
