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 ...

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 ...

Strain measurement at the knee ligament insertion sites [PDF]
We describe the modification of an existing method of ligament strain measurement at the knee joint in detail. At ten fresh joint specimens we used that technique where strain gauges are attached to the ligamentous insertions and origins.

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).
