Tibiofemoral and patellofemoral joint 3D-kinematics in patients with posterior cruciate ligament deficiency compared to healthy volunteers [PDF]
Background: The posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) plays an important role in maintaining physiological kinematics and function of the knee joint. To date mainly in-vitro models or combined magnetic resonance and fluoroscopic systems have been used for ...

morphometry of the patellar ligament in human fetuses
Objective: To gather detailed morphometric data of the patellar ligament in human fetuses. Method: Presentstudy is carried out on 32 human fetuses (18 males, 14 females) aged 18 32 weeks of gestation with no grosspathology or anomaly. Following the general external measurements of the fetuses each knee region weredissected.

Mechanics of the patellar articulation Effects of patellar ligament length studied with a mathematical model [PDF]
We investigated the influence of the length of the patellar ligament on (1) the relative positions of the ligament, patella, and quadriceps tendon, (2) the location of the patellofemoral contact point, (3) the force of the quadriceps femoris muscle, and (4) the patellofemoral compression force for 0-120 degrees flexion-extension angles of the knee. For
