A knotless suture anchor construct in MCL reconstruction is not inferior to traditional fixation methods [PDF]
Orthopaedic Journal of Sports MedicineObjectives: Traditionally, most medial collateral ligament (MCL) injuries have been managed non-operatively. Recent studies, however, have questioned this approach, highlighting the biomechanical and clinical consequences of residual medial laxities ...

Poster 218: Lateral Extra-articular Tenodesis Increasingly Protects ACL Graft at Higher Posterior Tibial Slopes in a Laxity-Calibrated Knee Model [PDF]
Orthopaedic Journal of Sports MedicineObjectives: The addition of a lateral extra-articular tenodesis (LET) at the time of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) is known to reduce ACL graft forces.

Clinical and Instrumented Measurements of Hip Laxity and Their Associations With Knee Laxity and General Joint Laxity [PDF]
Journal of Athletic Training, 2014 Context: Hip-joint laxity may be a relevant anterior cruciate ligament injury risk factor. With no devices currently available to measure hip laxity, it is important to determine if clinical measurements sufficiently capture passive displacement of the hip. Objective:

Anteromedial rotatory laxity [PDF]
Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, 2015 This paper describes anteromedial rotatory laxity of the knee joint. Combined instability of the superficial MCL and the structures of the posteromedial corner is the pathological background anteromedial rotatory laxity. Anteromedial rotatory instability is clinically characterized by anteromedial tibial plateau subluxation anterior to the ...
