On the Fatigue Life of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament during Simulated Pivot Landings
Passive collagenous structures such as rabbit medial collateral ligament exhibit fatigue behavior under cyclic loading: the larger the magnitude of repetitive loading, the fewer the number of loading cycles until failure [1]. A knowledge gap exists as to whether the human ACL might also exhibit fatigue behavior under cyclic loading. If so, this would help explain why an ACL rupture can occur du...
متن کاملAnterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction in Posterior Cruciate Ligament Deficient Knees
The floppy Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) sign is a well-established arthroscopic and MRI indicator of Posterior Cruciate Ligament (PCL) insufficiency. We explored the diagnostic and therapeutic options in such cases by retrospectively analyzing the management of a series of five consecutive cases of iatrogenic floppy ACL reconstructions which resulted in fixed posterior drawer. All patients ...
متن کاملCombined unicompartmental knee arthroplasty and anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction in knees with osteoarthritis and deficient anterior cruciate ligament
BACKGROUND Relative young and more active patients with osteoarthritis (OA) of the isolated medial femorotibial compartment in conjunction with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) deficiency are difficult to treat. The aim of this study was to explore the early clinical outcomes of combined Oxford unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) and ACL reconstruction for the patients presenting ACL defic...
متن کاملFailure of Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
The present review classifies and describes the multifactorial causes of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) surgery failure, concentrating on preventing and resolving such situations. The article particularly focuses on those causes that require ACL revision due to recurrent instability, without neglecting those that affect function or produce persistent pain. Although primary ACL reconstructio...
متن کاملVascular structure and function in the medial collateral ligament of anterior cruciate ligament transected rabbit knees.
To determine if decreased vascular responsiveness in the medial collateral ligament (MCL) of anterior cruciate ligament transected (ACL-t) rabbit knees is due to pericyte deficiency associated with angiogenesis. Vascular responses to potassium chloride (KCl), phenylephrine, acetylcholine, and sodium nitroprusside (SNP) were evaluated in ACL-t rabbit knees (n = 6) and control knees (n = 5) using...
