Isometry of medial collateral ligament reconstruction [PDF]
Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, 2009 AbstractThe purpose of this study was to determine the femoral and tibial fixation sites that would result in the most isometric MCL reconstruction technique. Seven cadaveric knees were used in this study. A navigation system was utilized to determine graft isometry continuously from 0º to 90º.

Elbow medial collateral ligament injuries [PDF]
Current Reviews in Musculoskeletal Medicine, 2008 Elbow medial collateral ligament sprain occurs when the elbow is subjected to a valgus force exceeding the tensile properties of the medial collateral ligament (MCL). This is an injury seen more often in throwing athletes. Understanding the differential diagnosis of medial elbow pain is paramount to diagnose MCL injury as well as addressing other ...

Strain measurement at the knee ligament insertion sites [PDF]
, 2003 We describe the modification of an existing method of ligament strain measurement at the knee joint in detail. At ten fresh joint specimens we used that technique where strain gauges are attached to the ligamentous insertions and origins.

Medial Collateral Ligament Calcification, Presenting as Knee Pain. An unusual Case Report
Albanian Journal of Trauma and Emergency Surgery, 2023 Background: The tibial collateral ligament, also known as the medial collateral ligament (MCL), is a ligament extending from the medial epicondyle of the femur to the posteromedial crest of the tibia.

Stiffness of the Healing Medial Collateral Ligament of the Mouse [PDF]
Connective Tissue Research, 2004 The knee joints of mice can serve as a model for studying knee ligament properties. The goal of our study was to measure the structural stiffness of the medial collateral ligament (MCL) of the murine knee. A tensile test was developed for this purpose. First 84 femur-MCL-tibia complexes of 11-week-old C57Black6 mice were tested.
