The Effect of Chronic Acl Deficiency on the Secondary Restraints of the Knee:a Biomechanical Study in a Sheep Model
نویسندگان
چکیده
Introduction: The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is an important restraint to anterior posterior translation and torsional stability of the knee joint[1]. After ACL rupture the role of the secondary restraints become of primary importance in ensuring knee joint stability[2][3][4]. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of chronic ACL deficiency on the secondary restraints by measuring the anteriorposterior drawer and torsional stability of acute and chronically ACLdeficient knees in an experimental sheep model.

متن کاملEffect of Fatigue on Ground Reaction Force Variables During Single-leg Landing in Athletes With the History of Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injury
Introduction: Since people experience fatigue after anterior cruciate ligament injury during exercises, it is important to understand how fatigue affects the biomechanical movement patterns. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the effect of fatigue on ground reaction force variables during single-leg landing in athletes with a history of an anterior cruciate ligament spr...
