Excursion of bone-patella tendon-bone grafts during the flexion–extension movement in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: Comparison between isometric and anatomic reconstruction techniques

Excursion of bone-patella tendon-bone grafts during the flexion–extension movement in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: Comparison between isometric and anatomic reconstruction techniques

Background/objective: The purpose of this study was to elucidate the biomechanical differences between anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) grafts reconstructed by isometric and anatomic reconstruction techniques, based on their length changes. Methods: One hundred and thirty-three knees with primary AC...
