Arthroscopic Transseptal Single-Tunnel Posterior Cruciate Ligament Refixation
Posterior cruciate ligament avulsions are relatively rare and often go undiagnosed. However, they need to be fixed to restore knee biomechanics. Fixation techniques vary from open to arthroscopic with comparable results.

The outcomes of posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction may be negatively affected by insufficient tibial tunnel fixation due to relatively lower bone density of the proximal tibia.

The Tibial Sag Radiograph Is a Reliable Radiographic Technique to Quantify Posterior Cruciate Ligament Laxity. [PDF]
Purpose To evaluate the interobserver and intraobserver reliability associated with using tibial sag stress radiographs as a measure of posterior laxity in patients with posterior cruciate ligament injuries. Methods All patients with posterior cruciate ligament injuries who underwent stress radiographic measurements using bilateral tibial sag stress ...

Lower limb kinematics, kinetics and coordination during a land and cut task; the role of gender and previous ACL injury [PDF]
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury continues to be a constant adversary to field sports athletes. Females are widely acknowledged as being at an increased risk of ACL injury, in comparison to males.

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 ...

Strain measurement at the knee ligament insertion sites [PDF]
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.
