Andromahi Trivellas 3, Jörg Eschweiler 1, Frank Hildebrand 1 & Nicola Maffulli 2,4,5 Bone-patellar tendon-bone (BPTB), two- and four-strand hamstring tendon (4SHT and 2SHT, respectively) are the most common autografts used for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) recon...
Tunnel widening Lateral posterior tibial slope Bone–patellar tendon–bone graft Anterior cruciate ligament 1. Introduction Tunnel widening (TW) following anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction is a well-known phenomenon.1 Although most previous studies have reported that TW after ACL reconstructio...
Once adequate exposure is achieved, a ruler is used to measure the length of the patellar tendon, where it inserts at the proximal-most aspect of the tibial tubercle, as well as its distal-most insertion on the tibial tubercle, as shown in Fig 2. Two K-wires are then placed parallel ...

Kinematic and kinetic data were collected, and a patellar tendon loading index was determined for each exercise using a weighted sum of loading peak, loading rate, and cumulative loading impulse. Then the exercises were ranked, according to the loading index, into tier 1 (loading index <= 0.33...

We were able to conclude that the treatment with reconstruction of the medial patellofemoral ligament with the patellar tendon produced better results, based on the analyses of post-treatment recurrences and on the better end results of the Kujala questionnaire after a minimum follow-up of two years...
