Purpose To determine whether the addition of lateral extra-articular tenodesis (LET) to
anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction would provide greater control of rotational …

Background Arthroscopic reconstruction for anterior cruciate ligament rupture is a common
orthopaedic procedure. One area of controversy is whether the method of double‐bundle …

Background: The anterolateral ligament has recently been identified as an important
structure involved in rotational laxity after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture. Results of …

Background: Anterolateral rotatory instability (ALRI) may result from combined anterior
cruciate ligament (ACL) and lateral extra-articular lesions, but the roles of the anterolateral …

Background: Recent biomechanical studies have demonstrated that an extra-articular lateral
knee structure, most recently referred to as the anterolateral ligament (ALL), contributes to …

Background: Lateral extra-articular soft tissue reconstructions in the knee may be used as a
combined procedure in revision anterior cruciate ligament surgery as well as in primary …

Purpose The purpose of this study is to evaluate the kinematics changes of the knee after
cutting of the ACL with or without injury of the anterolateral structures. Methods In this study …

Purpose To determine whether an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)–reconstructed knee with
hamstring autograft has a greater incidence of degenerative changes when an extra …

Background: Rotational instability of the knee remains an issue after anterior cruciate
ligament (ACL) reconstruction. Hypothesis/Purpose: The purpose was to evaluate the …

The pivot shift is the most specific clinical test to assess pathological knee joint rotatory laxity
following ACL injury. This article attempts to describe the anatomic structures responsible for …
