The beauty of experiential learning in anatomy
Abstract Anatomy is a unique subject where one must learn by doing. This is achieved through a variety of methods like dissection, use of prosections, imaging, playful learning (crocheting structures, drawing, and painting organs), through functional movement like yoga or pilates, use of 3D plastic models or by immersing oneself in virtual or augmented

Volitional assessment of quadriceps muscle endurance is clinically relevant in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD). However, studies that determine the construct validity of volitional tests by comparing them to non-volitional ...

Objectives: The aim of this study was to determine the effect of sacroiliac joint mobilization (SJM) in cases with sacroiliac joint dysfunction (SJD) on hamstring muscle flexibility and quadriceps muscle strength. Methods: Seven subjects age average (min-

Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction Using Double Limbed Rectus Femoris Autograft
Abstract Medial patellofemoral ligament reconstruction is routinely performed when conservative treatment fails and patients present with recurrent patellar dislocations. Most described techniques require fixation or some type of bony procedure on the patella.

Abstract Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction is a frequently performed procedure in arthroscopic surgery, with rising rates paralleling the incidence of anterior cruciate ligament ruptures worldwide. Synthetic grafts, especially hybrid constructs combining artificial devices with autologous tissue, offer biomechanical advantages and potential ...

Abstract Patellar instability commonly affects adolescents and young athletes and is associated with injury to the medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL). MPFL reconstruction is a well‐established treatment for recurrent instability; however, complications related to graft tensioning, fixation, and incomplete restoration of medial soft‐tissue restraints

Alternative Methods of Determining Hamstrings-to-Quadriceps Ratios: a Comprehensive Review
The hamstrings-to-quadriceps muscle strength ratio calculated by peak torque has been used as an important tool to detect muscle imbalance, monitor knee joint stability, describe muscle strength properties and functionality, and for lower extremity ...

Abstract Habitual patellar dislocation is rare and primarily characterized by superolateral soft‐tissue contractures. The surgical approach described focuses on a step‐by‐step, “à la carte”, release of these contractures. The algorithm and technique described here offer a reproducible surgical strategy applicable to both skeletally immature and mature ...

Abstract Anterior cruciate ligament rupture is increasingly common in skeletally immature patients. The Micheli‐Kocher iliotibial band technique is physeal‐sparing, but nonanatomic, whereas all‐epiphyseal reconstructions reproduce the anterior cruciate ligament footprint but lack lateral support. We describe an anatomic all‐epiphyseal anterior cruciate

Abstract Patellar tendon rupture is an uncommon but highly treatable injury, with excellent repair outcomes and low reoperation rates. Chronic patellar tendon ruptures or repair failures pose a clinical challenge, but the success rates of reconstruction with extensor mechanism allograft or autograft are reported to be high in the literature. Still, the
