Correlation of Magnetic Resonance Imaging With Knee Anterolateral Ligament Anatomy
BACKGROUND Anatomic and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) studies have recently characterized the knee anterolateral ligament (ALL). So far, no study has focused on confirming whether the evaluated MRI parameters truly correspond with ALL anatomy. PURPOSE To assess the validity of MRI in detecting the ALL using an anatomic evaluation as reference. STUDY DESIGN Descriptive laboratory study. ...
متن کاملAnatomy of the anterolateral ligament of the knee.
In 1879, the French surgeon Segond described the existence of a 'pearly, resistant, fibrous band' at the anterolateral aspect of the human knee, attached to the eponymous Segond fracture. To date, the enigma surrounding this anatomical structure is reflected in confusing names such as '(mid-third) lateral capsular ligament', 'capsulo-osseous layer of the iliotibial band' or 'anterolateral ligam...
متن کاملAnatomy and Histology of the Knee Anterolateral Ligament
BACKGROUND Reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is one of the most common procedures in orthopaedic surgery. However, even with advances in surgical techniques and implants, some patients still have residual anterolateral rotatory laxity after reconstruction. A thorough study of the anatomy of the anterolateral region of the knee is needed. PURPOSE To study the anterolateral...
متن کاملTruly Existing or Hyped up? Unravelling the Current Knowledge Regarding the Anatomy, Radiology, Histology and Biomechanics of the Enigmatic Anterolateral Ligament of the Knee Joint
Ever since its description, anterolateral ligament (ALL) of the knee joint remains as the hotspot of controversies.Though it has been described under various descriptions, the structure gained its limelight when it was christenedas anterolateral ligament by Claes in 2013. The main reason for the controversies around it is the lack of concreteevidences regarding its attachments...
متن کاملBiomechanical Analysis of Simulated Clinical Testing and Reconstruction of the Anterolateral Ligament of the Knee
BACKGROUND Anatomic anterolateral ligament (ALL) reconstruction has been proposed to assist anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction in controlling anterolateral rotational laxity of the knee. However, the biomechanical effects have not been reported. PURPOSE (1) To investigate the effect of ALL transection on rotational knee kinematics and (2) to determine the effect on knee biomechan...
