Nonanatomic versus anatomic techniques in spring ligament reconstruction: biomechanical assessment via a finite element model

Abstract Background Several approaches to spring ligament reconstruction have been reported. However, a comparative study of nonanatomic and anatomic techniques with respect to biomechanical responses, such as kinematics and contact characteristics, has not been previously performed via a finite ele...
