Is there any Correlation Between Patient Height and Patellar Tendon Length?
Background: A potential specific problem of patellar tendon graft in ACL reconstruction is the possibility of graft-tunnel mismatch which could be more problematic with anatomic ACL reconstruction where the femoral tunnel is placed low on the lateral wall of the lateral femoral condyle. The occasional occurrence of this mismatch raises the question that whether a correlation exists between pat...
متن کاملA study of lower extremity length inequality.
The 1,000 soldiers in this study were consecutive, non-selected cases who were sent to the roentgen (X-ray) department because of a low back complaint. By using their meticulous methodology of measurement, these authors conclude it is possible to accurately measure differences in lower extremity lengths as manifested by a difference in the heights of the femoral heads. The greatest difference i...

متن کاملPatellar tendon length after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.
We studied changes in patellar tendon length after reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament using either the medial third of the patellar tendon as a graft (n = 40) or a Leeds-Keio artificial ligament (n = 40). Both types of ligament replacement had been supplemented with a MacIntosh extra-articular lateral substitution. The mean change in length in the tendon graft group was 6% (SD 5.3...
متن کاملBreast-feeding is associated with improved growth in length, but not weight, in rural Senegalese toddlers.
BACKGROUND Prolonged breast-feeding is frequently associated with malnutrition in less-developed countries, even after adjustment for socioeconomic confounders. However, in rural Senegal, breast-feeding is prolonged when the child is stunted. OBJECTIVE We aimed to test whether the lower height-for-age of children weaned late is explained by their height before weaning or whether prolonged bre...
