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 ...

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 ...
