Description
Injuries to the medial side of the knee are frequent and grade I injuries usually have a good prognosis. Grade II and III injuries may leave sequelae. It is important to understand the contribution of each ligamentous structure of the medial side in facilitating improvement in clinical testing and management. The injuries may be isolated or associated with an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture, producing anteromedial or antero-anteromedial laxity.
Our objective was to determine the respective roles of the ACL and the different components of the medial side in the control of anterior translation and internal and external rotation, using the laximeter Dyneelax.
