Effect of ACL reconstruction on multi-joint coordination in dancers

چکیده

INTRODUCTION Both semitendinosus-gracilis (STG) and patella tendon bone (PTB) are frequently selected grafts for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction in dancers. Although STG and PTB reconstruction outcomes appear to be outwardly similar when assessing the knee joint in isolation, it is unclear whether there are limitations in multi-joint control following these procedures. Kinematic and kinetic analysis of locomotion activities following PTB reconstruction suggest ‘normalization’ of kinematic patterns (Ciccotti et al., 1994; Devita et al., 1997). Similar studies have not been conducted with subjects following STG ACL reconstruction, with dancers following ACL injury and reconstruction, or with domain-specific complex movements.
