The role-share-influence of the posterior tibial slope on rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament [PDF]

Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2012
Background/Aim. Posterior tibial slope is one of the most citated factors wich cause rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). The aim of this study was to determine the association of a greather posterior tibial slope on the lateral condyle ...

A lower starting point for the medial cut increases the posterior slope in opening‐wedge high tibial osteotomy: a cadaveric study [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Orthopaedics, 2022
Purpose The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects on the posterior tibial slope of different distances from the joint line to start the osteotomy and of varying the placement of the opening wedge in high tibial osteotomy.

Posterior Tibial Slope Is Not Correlated With Meniscal Tears in Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction [PDF]

Arthroscopy, Sports Medicine, and Rehabilitation
Purpose: To evaluate the impact of the tibial slope on the severity and location of meniscal tears in patients presenting with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture. Methods: We conducted a single-center retrospective observational study.

Restoring Sagittal Alignment: Anterior Open-Wedge Flexion Valgus Osteotomy for Post-Traumatic Genu Recurvatum with Reversed Posterior Tibial Slope – A Rare Case Report [PDF]

Journal of Orthopaedic Case Reports
Introduction: Traumatic genu recurvatum is uncommon condition but functionally significant deformity of the knee, most often resulting from loss of the posterior tibial slope following proximal tibial fractures.

The Blackburne–Peel Index for Determining Patellar Height Is Affected by Tibial Slope

Arthroscopy, Sports Medicine, and Rehabilitation, 2021
Purpose: To establish a quantitative relationship between the Blackburne–Peel index and posterior tibial slope in both skeletally mature and skeletally immature individuals and to evaluate the rate at which variation in tibial slope influences changes in

Locomotion in extinct giant kangaroos: were sthenurines hop-less monsters? [PDF]

, 2014
The extinct \u27sthenurine\u27 family of giant Kangaroos, up to three times larger than living Kangaroos, were able to walk on two feet, according to new research. Abstract Sthenurine kangaroos (Marsupialia, Diprotodontia, Macropodoidea) were an extinct

Effect of the sagittal osteotomy inclination angle on the posterior tibial slope change in high tibial osteotomy: three-dimensional simulation study

Scientific Reports, 2022
In performing medial open-wedge high tibial osteotomy, it is recommended not to alter the posterior tibial slope. However, it remains unclear whether the osteotomy inclination angle affects the posterior tibial slope in the sagittal plane.

Difference in sex and the effect of a dominant lower extremity in the posterior tibial slope angle in healthy Japanese subjects

Asia-Pacific Journal of Sports Medicine, Arthroscopy, Rehabilitation and Technology, 2021
Background/objective: Anterior cruciate ligament injuries are prone to re-injury, and it is crucial to prevent the primary injury. One of the anatomical risk factors for anterior cruciate ligament injury is the posterior tibial slope angle. Investigating

Tibial Tubercle–Sparing Anterior Closing Wedge Osteotomy With Cross-Screw Fixation to Correct Pathologic Posterior Tibial Slope

Arthroscopy Techniques, 2021
Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction failure remains a commonly seen outcome despite advances in technique and graft options. Recent studies have shown that the declination of the tibial plateau slope in the sagittal plane affects the in situ stress
