The anterior cruciate ligament has quickly become one of the most reconstructed ligamentous structures in the human body. Graft fixation options have evolved and expanded with time, the market now having numerous possibilities. It can be clearly seen that there is still plenty of debate regarding implant biocompatibility, resorption rates and osteoinductive capabilities. We aim to present a series...
In recent years, medical institutions have very big data including medical images. The big image data analysis using the collected medical images is effective to increase the accuracy and the reproducibility of the surgery. Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury causes knee joint instability, and affects on sports performance. Therefore, ACL reconstruction surgery is essential to keep their performance...
The purpose of this study was to determine whether acupuncture is effective in reducing pain and swelling around the knee and improving range of motion (ROM) during the early rehabilitation after anterior cruciate ligament(ACL) reconstruction. Following ACL reconstruction, 80 patients were randomly assigned to either an acupuncture treatment group (Group A) or a control group (Group C). In Group A,...
The ideal graft for use in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction should have structural and biomechanical properties similar to those of the native ligament, permit secure fixation and rapid biologic incorporation, and limit donor site morbidity. Many options have been clinically successful, but the ideal, graft remains controversial. Graft choice depends on surgeon experience and preference,...
One of the most frequent injuries in subjects who practice sport is the rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). Appropriate reconstruction and rehabilitation are key issues in full recovery of patients and their return to previous activities. This paper presents a new method to estimate muscle strength during a dynamic exercise from kinematic and electromyographic (EMG) data. Recovery of...
