Detection of Meniscal Changes Prior to Overt Damage Followingacl/mcl Transection in an Ovine Stifle Joint Model of Osteoarthritis
INTRODUCTION: The anterior cruciat e ligament (ACL) is one of the most frequently injured ligaments in the knee. ACL injury often leads to significant functional impairment in athletes and is associated with induction of degenerative joint disease. ACL injuries are regarded as “the beginning of the end of the knee”. This is because the incidence of meniscal pathology and chondral defects increa...
متن کاملEffect of ACL deficiency on MCL strains and joint kinematics.
The knee joint is partially stabilized by the interaction of multiple ligament structures. This study tested the interdependent functions of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and the medial collateral ligament (MCL) by evaluating the effects of ACL deficiency on local MCL strain while simultaneously measuring joint kinematics under specific loading scenarios. A structural testing machine app...
متن کاملEvaluation of Partial Transection versus Synovial Debridement of the ACL as Novel Canine Models for Management of ACL Injuries.
A major hurdle in investigating important clinical questions in knee ligament treatment is a lack of valid translational animal models. This study characterizes the effects of partial transection versus synovial debridement of the anterior (cranial) cruciate ligament (ACL) in dogs. A total of 27 adult purpose-bred research hounds underwent surgery and were assessed over the following 8 weeks. D...
متن کاملSimulation of Anterior Cruciate Ligament Deficiency in a Musculoskeletal Model with Anatomical Knees
Abnormal knee kinematics and meniscus injury resulting from anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) deficiency are often implicated in joint degeneration even though changes in tibio-femoral contact location after injury are small, typically only a few millimeters. Ligament reconstruction surgery does not significantly reduce the incidence of early onset osteoarthritis. Increased knowledge of knee con...
متن کاملMinimal Invasive Acute Medial Collateral Ligament Stabilization with Partial Anterior Cruciate Ligament Deficiency Preliminary Results of 16-Patients Case Series and Review of the Literature
Medial collateral ligament (MCL) can be frequently damaged with ACL injuries, especially during external rotation, slight flexion and valgus loading of the knee. Inpatients combined ACL (partially ruptured) and MCL injuries, percutaneous MCL reefing by using PDS suture material, shrinkage with radiofrequency and regularization of the ACL was performed. The aim of this study was to describe the ...
