The anterior talofibular ligament ratio was greater in young men with generalized joint laxity than in those without generalized joint laxity
PurposeThis study aimed to evaluate the relationship between generalized joint laxity (GJL) and stress ultrasonographic (US) findings of the anterior...

Posterior-stabilized total knee arthroplasty kinematics and joint laxity: A hybrid biomechanical study
BackgroundPosterior-stabilized (PS)-total knee arthroplasty (TKA) arose as an alternative to cruciate-retaining (CR)-TKA in the 1970s. Since then, it...

What is the utility of hip arthroscopy in patients with joint laxity? A contemporary systematic review of patient-reported and surgical outcomes
IntroductionThe purpose of this study was to systematically review the literature to understand the contemporary outcomes for patients with joint...

Digital measurement of anterolateral knee laxity using strain sensors
PurposeThe ambition of the research group was to develop a sensor-based system that allowed the transfer of results with strain sensors applied to...

Lateral Laxity in Flexion Influences Patient-Reported Outcome After Total Knee Arthroplasty
IntroductionSlight lateral laxity exists in normal knee especially in flexion. The lateral laxity in flexion has possibility to affect the outcome...
-
Comparison of anterior knee laxity, stiffness, genu recurvatum, and general joint laxity in the late follicular phase and the ovulatory phase of the menstrual cycle
BackgroundOne risk factor for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury may be fluctuations in female hormones. This study examined variability in...

Intra-operative laxity and balance impact 2-year pain outcomes in TKA: a prospective cohort study
PurposeThe objective of this study was to determine if intra-operatively measured joint gaps are associated with 2-year pain outcomes in total knee...
-
Restricted kinematic alignment achieves similar relative lateral laxity and greater joint line obliquity compared to gap balancing TKA
PurposeThe purpose of this study was to compare ligament balance and laxity profiles achieved throughout flexion in restricted kinematic alignment...

Difference in implant design affects midflexion rotational laxity in cruciate-retaining total knee arthroplasty: a computer navigation study
PurposeThis study aimed to compare midflexion rotational laxity between two different design concept models of cruciate-retaining total knee...
-
Influence of a posteromedial meniscocapsular injury on the knee anterior laxity. A cadaveric study
PurposeThe number of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries has considerably increased in the recent years, especially in young adults and...
-
Arthroscopic modified Broström procedure achieved similar favorable short term outcomes to open procedure for chronic lateral ankle instability cases with generalized joint laxity
PurposeTo compare the short-term clinical outcomes of the open versus arthroscopic modified Broström procedure in generalized joint laxity (GJL)...

Evaluation of the short-term outcomes of anatomic ACL reconstruction with hamstring autograft in patients with generalized joint laxity: A retrospective case–control study
PurposeThe outcomes of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) in patients with generalized joint laxity (GJL) are not clearly understood....
-
A preliminary study exploring the change in ankle joint laxity and general joint laxity during the menstrual cycle in cis women
BackgroundThe purpose of the present study was to examine the relationship between ankle joint laxity and general joint laxity (GJL) in relation to...

Does the contralateral healthy ankle of patient with ipsilateral mechanical lateral ankle laxity show greater lateral ankle laxity? Evaluation of the anterior talofibular ligament by stress ultrasonography
BackgroundA number of studies have evaluated risk factors for lateral ankle sprain (LAS) or chronic lateral ankle instability (CLAI). However, the...

Reduced knee laxity and failure rate following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction compared with repair for acute tears: a meta-analysis
BackgroundFollowing anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears, both repair and reconstruction may be performed to restore joint biomechanics and...
-
The modification of bone cut angle and joint line obliquity did not change the tibiofemoral kinematics and stability of knee joint after total knee arthroplasty
IntroductionPrevious reports using cadaveric knees and musculoskeletal computer simulation have shown that kinematically aligned (KA) total knee...

Extension osteotomy of the metacarpal I and ligamentoplasty of the trapeziometacarpal joint for the treatment of early-stage osteoarthritis and instability of the trapeziometacarpal joint
Osteoarthritis (OA) is a common disease of the first carpo-metacarpal (CMC I) joint. Biomechanical factors promoting OA are the shape of the CMC...
