Synovial osteochondromatosis of the cruciate ligament

Arthroscopy, 1998
Abstract An unusual case of synovial chondromatosis of the cruciate ligaments is reported that resulted principally in a loss of function, secondary to a mechanical block to extension. Magnetic resonance imaging was useful in directing surgery, but not in making the formal diagnosis.

Posterior Cruciate Ligament Injuries

Clinics in Sports Medicine, 1991
PCL reconstruction is not often necessary. Arthroscopic techniques using autograft or allograft substitution for the PCL probably bear more physiologic and anatomic likeness to the normal ligament than to tissue transfers posteriorly. The arthroscopic procedure is exacting and technically demanding.

Posterior Cruciate Ligament Recession

Arthroscopy, 1999
Summary: Three cases of posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) laxity without posterolateral rotatory instability had magnetic resonance imaging scans that documented the structural continuity of the PCL. Tibial PCL recession was effective in eliminating symptomatic laxity in 1 case and lacked efficacy in the other 2 cases.

n engl j med 360;14 nejm.org april 2, 2009 1463 daily for up to 4 years. Novelose was used because it was relatively easy to mix with a variety of foods. The dose used was as much as we thought we could ask participants to add to their diet. There were 97 withdrawals on the basis of “minor disorders,” as compared with 76 among participants receiving ...

Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction

Sports Medicine and Arthroscopy Review, 2018
The past 3+ decades have been a period of intense interest in the anterior cruciate ligament. Graft choices, techniques, and fixation devices have all evolved. Our understanding of the anatomy has improved. Our follow-up and criteria for success have also expanded.

The Prosthetic Replacement of the Cruciate Ligament

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1986
In the design of a ligament replacement, the elastic behavior of the ligament as well as the failure strength of the natural ligament should be reproduced. The implantation sites and alignment are very important in order to reduce the mechanical loads on the prosthesis.

Biomechanics of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1983
The principal role of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is to resist anterior displacement of the tibia on the femur. The ACL also has a major role in resisting internal rotation. The posterior fibers are longest, or most tense, in extension, and are therefore the major resistance to hyperextension and are more susceptible to injury in extension ...
