UNLABELLED We present a case of chronic acromioclavicular joint dislocation (Rockwood type 5) in which the choice of acromioclavicular reconstruction using autogenous semitendinosus tendon graft was made due to its superiority in anatomical reconstruction of the coracoclavicular ligaments, and the impact of postoperative rehabilitation on the recovery of this patient. We also discuss the ration...

the anterior cruciate ligament (acl) is composed of two bundles, which work together to provide both antero-posterior and rotatory stability of the knee. understanding the anatomy and function of the acl plays a key role in management of patients with acl injury. anatomic acl reconstruction aims to restore the function of the native acl. femoral and tibial tunnels should be placed in their anat...

bone-patellar tendon auto graft is probably the most widely used graft for acl reconstruction. several methods for graft fixation have been described. to avoid intra-articular hardware we adopt biological fixation with a femoral trapezoidal press-fit fixation. a prospective study was performed on 30 consecutive active people who underwent acl reconstruction with this technique by two surgeons b...

conclusions zebris movement analysis system is a highly reliable instrument for the measurement of gait parameters at different speeds in healthy athletes and those after acl reconstruction surgery. this implies its use in the assessment and treatment process of gait deficits in such a clinically important population. background reconstruction surgery is one of the treatment methods after an an...

background: a rare and devastating complication following anterior cruciate ligament (acl) revision reconstruction is femoral fracture.    case presentation: a 35-year old male soccer player with a history of acl tear from the previous year ago, who underwent arthroscopic acl reconstruction and functioned well until another similar injury caused acl re-rupture. revision of acl reconstruction wa...
