Journal ArticleDOI
In situ forces in the anterior cruciate ligament and its bundles in response to anterior tibial loads
TL;DR: Nonuniformity of the anterior cruciate ligament under unconstrained anterior tibial loads is demonstrated and reconstruction techniques should take into account the role of the posterolateral bundle in addition to that of the anteromedial bundle.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mechanical characterization of collagen fibers and scaffolds for tissue engineering.
TL;DR: Mechanical properties of collagen as a scaffolding biomaterial for ligament replacements for tissue-engineered products must possess appropriate mechanical as well as biological/chemical properties should help enable the development of improved tissue analogues.
Journal ArticleDOI
Importance of the medial meniscus in the anterior cruciate ligament‐deficient knee
Christina R. Allen,Eric K. Wong,Glen A. Livesay,Masataka Sakane,Freddie H. Fu,Savio L. C. Woo +5 more
TL;DR: The data indicate that the demand on the medial meniscus in resisting anterior tibial loads is increased in the anterior cruciate ligament‐deficient knee compared with in the intact knee, suggesting a mechanism for the increased incidence of medial meniscal tears observed in chronically anterior cruiser ligament-deficient patients.
Journal ArticleDOI
The human posterior cruciate ligament complex: an interdisciplinary study. Ligament morphology and biomechanical evaluation.
Christopher D. Harner,John W. Xerogeanes,Glen A. Livesay,Gregory J. Carlin,Brian A. Smith,Takeshi Kusayama,Shinji Kashiwaguchi,Savio L. C. Woo +7 more
TL;DR: Fibril size within the anterior and posterior cruciate liga ment complex from the femur to the tibia is determined, through transmission electron microscopy, and the posteriorcruciate ligament becomes increasingly larger from the tibial to the femoral insertions, andThe anterior cruciates becomes smaller toward the Femoral insertion.
Journal ArticleDOI
The forces in the anterior cruciate ligament and knee kinematics during a simulated pivot shift test: A human cadaveric study using robotic technology
Akihiro Kanamori,Savio L. C. Woo,C. Benjamin Ma,Jennifer Zeminski,Theodore W. Rudy,Guoan Li,Glen A. Livesay +6 more
TL;DR: The data indicate that the ACL plays an important role in restraining coupled anterior tibial translation in response to the simulated pivot shift test as well as under an isolated internal tIBial torque, especially when the knee is near extension.
