Anatomic Medial Collateral Ligament, Posterior Oblique Ligament, and Double-Bundle Posterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstructions With Concomitant Distal Femoral Osteotomy in the Setting of a Chronic Injury. [PDF]

Arthrosc Tech
Abstract The medial collateral ligament provides stability against valgus stress applied to the knee. Medial knee ligament injuries often occur concomitantly with posterior cruciate ligament injuries and may be aggravated by valgus malalignment. Intentional care and preparation must be taken to reconstruct all injured structures to their anatomic ...

Muscle Synergy Alteration of Human During Walking With Lower Limb Exoskeleton

Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2019
Muscle synergy reflects inherent coordination patterns of muscle groups as the human body finishes required movements. It may be still unknown whether the original muscle synergy of subjects may alter or not when exoskeletons are put on during their ...

Optimization of the position for isometric exercise to strengthen the vastus medialis oblique muscle based on surface electromyography tests : an observational study

, 2023
Background: The vastus medialis oblique (VMO) is the main dynamic stabilizer of the knee joint. Due to its anatomic structure, the muscle works at high speed and with high strength, but it tends to weaken relatively fast and atrophy. Aims: The study
