Anterior 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 کاملHigh tibial osteotomy and ligament reconstruction for varus angulated anterior cruciate ligament-deficient knees.
In a consecutive series, we treated 41 young patients who had anterior cruciate ligament deficiency, lower limb varus angulation, and varying amounts of posterolateral ligament deficiency. Seventy-three percent of the patients (N = 30) had lost the medial meniscus and 63% (N = 26) had marked articular cartilage damage in the medial compartment. All patients were treated with high tibial osteoto...
متن کاملKinematics of anterior cruciate ligament-deficient knees in a Chinese population during stair ascent
BACKGROUND The purpose of this study was to measure the tibiofemoral kinematics of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) deficiency in a Chinese population and compare the kinematics with published data about a Caucasian population. METHODS Unilateral knees of 18 Chinese ACL-deficient (ACL-D) subjects were studied while subjects ascended stairs. Kinematic alteration was compared between ACL-D knee...
متن کاملUsing Cine Phase Contrast Magnetic Resonance Imaging to Measuretibial Translation in Anterior Cruciate Ligament Deficient Knees
INTRODUCTION: It is well understood that disruption of the knee’s anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) increases joint laxity in the anterior-posterior (AP) direction. However, the extent to which abnormal tibiofemoral translation occurs during activity remains unclear. Since pathological joint motion has been postulated as a contributor to changes in articular cartilage which may lead to osteoarth...
