Immediate effect of anti-pronation foot taping on myoelectric activity of knee muscles in patellofemoral pain syndrome: a randomised controlled trial

Physiotherapy Quarterly
Introduction There is lack of studies on the effect of anti-pronation foot taping on the myoelectric activity of knee muscles. The purpose of this study was to investigate the immediate effect of anti-pronation foot taping on the myoelectric activity of ...

PREFERENTIAL VASTUS MEDIALIS OBLIQUE ACTIVATION ACHIEVED AS A TREATMENT FOR KNEE DISORDERS

Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research, 2005
The purpose of this study was to compare the effect of an open-stance cycling protocol (OSCP) with the traditional cycling foot position (TCFP) for preferential vastus medialis oblique (VMO) muscle activation, measured by surface electromyography (SEMG), and preferential VMO activation as defined by achieving significantly increased VMO/VL (vastus ...

Stiffness of individual quadriceps muscle assessed using ultrasound shear wave elastography during passive stretching

Journal of Sport and Health Science, 2018
Background: Until recently it has not been possible to isolate the mechanical behavior of individual muscles during passive stretching. Muscle shear modulus (an index of muscle stiffness) measured using ultrasound shear wave elastography can be used to ...

Patellar Tendon Revision Reconstruction Using Transosseous Patella All‐Suture Anchors, Semitendinosus Autograft, and Achilles Allograft

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
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

Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction Using Gracilis With Pes Anserinus Preservation and Adductor Magnus Pulley

Arthroscopy Techniques, EarlyView.
Abstract Recurrent patellar instability is a common orthopaedic condition, particularly in young and active patients. Medial patellofemoral ligament (MPFL) reconstruction has emerged as the gold standard for surgical management in cases of objective instability.

Rectus femoris tendon morphometry and practical landmarks for harvesting: A cadaveric study

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose To perform a qualitative and quantitative cadaveric analysis of the rectus femoris (RF) tendon to determine its suitability as a standalone autograft for knee ligament reconstruction and to identify consistent anatomical landmarks for safe and reproducible harvest.

Sport participation after isolated distal femoral osteotomy in young patients: High return‐to‐sport rates and predictive role of preoperative activity level

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose The present study aimed to assess return to sport (RTS) rate, activity level and return to work (RTW) in young, physically active patients who underwent isolated distal femoral osteotomy (DFO) for lateral knee pain and valgus malalignment.

Medial Patellofemoral Ligament Reconstruction Using Double Limbed Rectus Femoris Autograft

Arthroscopy Techniques, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2026.
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.

Single‐Stage Repair of Complex Anterolateral Radial and Posterior Root Tears of the Lateral Meniscus, With a Concomitant Multiligament Knee Reconstruction of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament, Medial Collateral Ligament, Posterior Oblique Ligament, and Anterolateral Ligament in a Young Athlete

Arthroscopy Techniques, Volume 15, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Early meniscal repair and anatomic reconstruction in a multiligament knee injury optimizes outcomes and restores tibiofemoral mechanics. This technique describes a lateral meniscus posterior root and radial tear repair, with concomitant medial ramp repair, performed during single‐stage reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament ...
