Stretch and activation of the human biarticular hamstrings across a range of running speeds [PDF]

, 2013
PURPOSE: The human biarticular hamstrings [semimembranosus (SM), semitendinosus (ST) and biceps femoris long head (BF(LH))] have an important role in running.

Fascia and Muscle Stiffness in Soccer Athletes with and Without Previous Hamstring Injury

Journal of Functional Morphology and Kinesiology
Background/Objectives: Despite extensive efforts to reduce injuries to the hamstrings, the injury rate among athletes is increasing. The purpose of this study was to examine fascia and muscle stiffness differences between ten soccer players with a ...

Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction With Hamstrings Autograft and Modified Lemaire Extra‐articular Tenodesis Using a Single Femoral Tunnel

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract The addition of a lateral extra‐articular procedure to anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction has been shown to improve rotational stability and reduce graft failure rates, particularly in high‐risk patients. However, tunnel convergence remains a major concern in combined anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction and lateral extra‐articular

Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction Using Double Limbed Rectus Femoris Autograft

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction is routinely performed when conservative treatment fails and patients present with recurrent patellar dislocations. Most described techniques require fixation or some type of bony procedure on the patella.

Arthroscopic Anterior and Posterior Glenohumeral Capsular Augmentation With Gracilis Allograft

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Multidirectional instability in patients with connective tissue disorders such as Ehlers‐Danlos syndrome (EDS) is difficult to treat due to poor tissue quality and frequent failure of standard repairs. We describe an arthroscopic technique using gracilis tendon allografts to perform an anterior and posterior capsular augmentation in the ...

Quadriceps and Hamstrings Coactivation During Common Therapeutic Exercises

, 2012
Anterior tibial shear force and knee valgus moment increase anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) loading. Muscle coactivation of the quadriceps and hamstrings influences anterior tibial shear force and knee valgus moment, thus potentially influencing ACL ...

Sprint Acceleration Mechanics: The Major Role of Hamstrings in Horizontal Force Production

Frontiers in Physiology, 2015
Recent literature supports the importance of horizontal ground reaction force (GRF) production for sprint acceleration performance. Modeling and clinical studies have shown that the hip extensors are very likely contributors to sprint acceleration ...

Biologic Augmentation With Biocomposite Scaffold in Revision Quadriceps Tendon Repair

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Quadriceps tendon rupture is a relatively uncommon injury, typically occurring in middle‐aged males, and is often associated with systemic comorbidities or trauma. Although primary repair techniques provide excellent outcomes when performed acutely, revision surgery presents unique challenges due to poor tissue quality and compromised ...

Knee and Hip Joint Kinematics Predict Quadriceps and Hamstrings Neuromuscular Activation Patterns in Drop Jump Landings

PLoS ONE, 2016
Purpose The purpose was to assess if variation in sagittal plane landing kinematics is associated with variation in neuromuscular activation patterns of the quadriceps-hamstrings muscle groups during drop vertical jumps (DVJ).

Surgical Treatment of Injury to the Posteromedial Meniscocapsular‐Extra‐articular Attachment Associated With Rupture of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Concomitant injuries are often present in the knee affected by anterior cruciate ligament injuries. Certain injuries are routinely identified, whereas others may be inadvertently neglected. Such injuries include lesions to the posteromedial meniscocapsular‐extra‐articular attachments.
