Journal ArticleDOI

The effectiveness of reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament with hamstrings and patellar tendon . A cadaveric study comparing anterior tibial and rotational loads.

TL;DR: In current reconstruction procedures, the graft is placed close to the central axis of the tibia and femur, which makes it inadequate for resisting rotational loads, according to this study.
Journal ArticleDOI

Three-Dimensional Tibiofemoral Kinematics of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament-Deficient and Reconstructed Knee during Walking

TL;DR: Patients with anterior cruciate ligament-deficient knees experienced repeated episodes of rotational instability during walking, whereas patients with reconstruction experienced tibial rotation that is closer to normal.
Journal ArticleDOI

Tissue engineering of ligament and tendon healing.

TL;DR: The combination of cell therapy with growth factor application via gene transfer offers new avenues to improve ligament and tendon healing.
Journal ArticleDOI

The biomechanical interdependence between the anterior cruciate ligament replacement graft and the medial meniscus.

TL;DR: To establish a quantitative biomechanical relationship between the anterior cruciate ligament graft and the medial meniscus, 10 human cadaveric knees were examined using the robotic/universal force-moment sensor testing system and the resultant forces on the medialMeniscus were doubled.
Journal ArticleDOI

The effects of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction on tibial rotation during pivoting after descending stairs

TL;DR: A significant difference was found within the ACL reconstructed group and between the reconstructed and the contralateral intact leg, suggesting ACL reconstruction may not restore tibial rotation even though anterior tibials translation has been reestablished.
