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

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