Anatomical variations in the tibial insertion of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament: An MRI study
<p>Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) reconstructive surgery provides good to excellent (75% to 97%) outcomes overall in terms of joint stability, symptom improvement and return to pre-injury activity [1]. Between 0.7 and 20% of patients, however, undergoing surgery will experience persistent i...

Summary: | <p>Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) reconstructive surgery provides good to excellent (75% to 97%) outcomes overall in terms of joint stability, symptom improvement and return to pre-injury activity [1]. Between 0.7 and 20% of patients, however, undergoing surgery will experience persistent instability symptoms due to ACL graft failure [2]. Femoral and tibial tunnel malposition may cause flexion and extension deficits and ultimately lead to graft failure [3].</p> |
