A review of recent perspectives on biomechanical risk factors associated with anterior cruciate ligament injury [PDF]
, 2014 There is considerable evidence to support a number of biomechanical risk factors associated with non-contact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. This paper aimed to review these biomechanical risk factors and highlight future directions relating to ...

Morphology and morphometry of the semitendinosus distal tendon in adults and foetuses
Folia Morphologica, 2020 Background: The distal tendon of the semitendinosus is often used as a graft in orthopedic reconstructive surgery. Knowledge of the exact morphology of this tendon, and also the ability to predict its morphometric data are certainly helpful when planning
