Dual–Posteromedial Portal Technique for Complex Arthroscopy in the Posterior Knee

Arthroscopy Techniques, 2021
Arthroscopy in the posterior knee continues to improve as new techniques arise. Traditionally, posterior techniques included posteromedial and posterolateral portals. Although frequently used, these techniques do have some limitations. We propose the use

Spectrum of injuries associated with paediatric ACL tears: an MRI pictorial review [PDF]

, 2013
OBJECTIVE: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury are well known, but most published reviews show obvious examples of associated injuries and give little focus to paediatric patients. Here, we demonstrate the

Mechanoreceptors of the Posterior Cruciate Ligament [PDF]

Journal of International Medical Research, 2008
The mechanical role of the anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments in the passive and functional stability of the knee joint has been well documented. Both these knee joint ligaments contain Ruffini, Pacinian, Golgi and free nerve endings with different capabilities of providing the central nervous system with information regarding movement and ...

The anatomical knowledge of Namibian school children

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract The public has limited knowledge of key organs and anatomical structures. The lack of anatomical knowledge and understanding can hinder time to access healthcare, quality of care, and treatment outcomes. The current study investigated the anatomical knowledge among Namibian children by comparing 8 school grades—4 to 12, which covers children ...

How accurate is an MRI at diagnosing injured knee ligaments? [PDF]

, 2010
MRI is highly accurate in diagnosing injury to the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) (strength of recommendation [SOR]: A, prospective blinded cohort studies) and posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) (SOR: B, limited number of prospective blinded cohort ...

Tibiofemoral and patellofemoral joint 3D-kinematics in patients with posterior cruciate ligament deficiency compared to healthy volunteers [PDF]

, 2012
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 ...

Novel application of gamification to support undergraduate anatomy: Student perceptions and performance

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Abstract Anatomy is a foundational component of various medical and paramedical disciplines. Existing research has suggested that games or game elements can improve student interest in musculoskeletal (MSK) anatomy. This project builds on previous gamification and serious game work and incorporates new anatomy‐based games into undergraduate anatomy ...

The Effect of Graft Strength on Knee Laxity and Graft In-Situ Forces after Posterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction

PLoS ONE, 2015
Surgical reconstruction is generally recommended for posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) injuries; however, the use of grafts is still a controversial problem.

Extracellular Vesicle‐Mediated Communication Between Anterior Cruciate Ligament and Bone Marrow Cells Modulates Hamstring Tenocyte Behavior and Apoptosis

The Kaohsiung Journal of Medical Sciences, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Following anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction, enhancing hamstring tenocyte activity and minimizing apoptosis are critical for preventing graft failure and promoting ligamentization. This study investigated the therapeutic potential of extracellular vesicles (EVs) derived from a coculture of ACL remnant cells and bone marrow ...
