An in vitro biomechanical comparison of anterior cruciate ligament reconstructi...
Sasaki, Sandra Umeda; Albuquerque, Roberto Freire da Mota e; Pereira, César Augusto Martins; Gouveia, Guilherme Simões; Vilela, Júlio César RodriguesINTRODUCTION: Anterior cruciate ligament ruptures are frequent, especially in sports. Surgical reconstruction with autologous grafts is widely employed in the international literature. Controversies remain with respect to technique variations as continuous research for improvement takes place. One of these variations is the anatomical double bundle technique, which is performed instead of the conventional singl...
Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with double bundle versus single bund...
Albuquerque, Roberto F. Mota e; Sasaki, Sandra Umeda; Amatuzzi, Marco Martins; Angelini, Fabio JansonOBJECTIVE: To test an intra-articular reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament of the knee in 10 human cadavers by replacing 2 anterior cruciate ligament bundles, with the purpose of producing a surrogate that would be structurally more similar to the anatomy of the anterior cruciate ligament and would provide the knee with more stability. METHODS: We reconstructed the anteromedial and posterolateral bu...
