Arthroscopic Posterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Using a Pedicled Semitendinosus Autograft Through a Trans-Septal Approach: A Technical Note. [PDF]
Abstract Isolated posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) ruptures are relatively uncommon among knee ligament injuries. Operative management is recommended for patients with grade III posterior knee joint laxity. The complex anatomy of the PCL, particularly its course and insertion on the femur and the tibia, makes its reconstruction technically challenging.

Biological and Biomechanical Evaluation of the Ligament Advanced Reinforcement System (LARS AC) in a Sheep Model of Anterior Cruciate Ligament Replacement: A 3-Month and 12-Month Study [PDF]
PurposeThe purposes of this study were to assess tissue ingrowth within the Ligament Advanced Reinforcement System (LARS) artificial ligament (LARS AC; LARS, Arc sur Tille, France) and to study the biomechanical characteristics of the reconstructed knees

The effect of polystyrene sodium sulfonate grafting on polyethylene terephthalate artificial ligaments on in vitro mineralisation and in vivo bone tissue integration [PDF]
This study investigates the impact of polystyrene sodium sulfonate (PolyNaSS) grafting onto the osseointegration of a polyethylene terephthalate artificial ligament (Ligament Advanced Reinforcement System, LARS ) used for Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL).

THE ROLE OF PREVIOUS ANTERIOR CRUCIATE LIGAMENT INJURY ON THE VARIABILITY OF JOINT KINEMATICS AND COORDINATION DURING A MATCH SPECIFIC LAND-CUT TASK [PDF]
This study compared the movement and coordination variability of the previously injured leg of ACL injured subjects (ACLr, n=9), against their non-injured leg and a control (nACL, n=9) leg.

Reverse Segond fracture and associated knee injuries: A case report and review of 13 published cases
Reverse Segond fracture is originally described as an indirect radiographic clue for a specific injury complex of the knee joint that includes posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) rupture and medial meniscal tear.

Arthroscopic Fixation of Posterior Cruciate Ligament Tibial Avulsion Fractures With Single-Suture and Dual EndoButtons via the Lateral Aspect of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament. [PDF]
Abstract Arthroscopic techniques have gradually replaced open surgery as a routine method for treating posterior cruciate ligament tibial avulsion fractures. However, traditional arthroscopic surgery is associated with problems such as limited visualization, unstable fixation, and unsatisfactory reduction.

Persisting side-to-side differences in bone mineral content, but not in muscle strength and tendon stiffness after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction [PDF]
Tendon stiffness may be involved in limiting peak musculoskeletal forces and thus may constitute an upper limit for bone strength. The patellar tendon bone (PTB) graft, which is harvested from the patellar tendon during surgical reconstruction of the ...
