متن کاملAssociation Between Lateral Posterior Tibial Slope, Body Mass Index, and ACL Injury Risk
BACKGROUND While body mass index (BMI), a modifiable parameter, and knee morphology, a nonmodifiable parameter, have been identified as risk factors for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture, the interaction between them remains unknown. An understanding of this interaction is important because greater compressive axial force (perhaps due to greater BMI) applied to a knee that is already at ...
متن کاملRelationship Between Posterior-Inferior Tibial Slope and Bilateral Noncontact ACL Injury.
Is there a correlation between increased posterior-inferior tibial slope angle and noncontact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury? Does increasing the posterior-inferior tibial slope angle increase the risk of bilateral ACL injury? A computerized relational database (Access 2007; Microsoft Inc, Redmond, Washington) was used to conduct a retrospective review of patients undergoing bilateral ...
متن کاملRelationship of ACL Injury and Posterior Tibial Slope With Patient Age, Sex, and Race
BACKGROUND Posterior tibial slope (PTS) has been proposed as a potential risk factor for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury; however, studies that have examined this relationship have provided inconclusive and sometimes contradictory results. Further characterization of this relationship may enable the medical community to identify individuals at greater risk for ACL injury and possibly ch...
متن کاملUni-directional coupling between tibiofemoral frontal and axial plane rotation supports valgus collapse mechanism of ACL injury.
Despite general agreement on the effects of knee valgus and internal tibial rotation on anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) loading, compelling debate persists on the interrelationship between these rotations and how they contribute to the multi-planar ACL injury mechanism. This study investigates coupling between knee valgus and internal tibial rotation and their effects on ACL strain as a quanti...
