Presentation Transcript

  1. SPORT INJURIES AND BIOMECHANICS ACL RUPTURE

  2. ANATOMY • Intra capsular knee joint structure • Length 38mm( 25 to 41mm) • Width 10mm (7 to 12mm) • Made up multiple collagen fibers • Surrounded by synovial membrane envelope

  3. ANATOMY • Femoral proximal attachment :postero- lateral corner of inter condylar notch • Tibial distal attachment : front and lateral of anterior tibial spine • Two bands: small anteromedial and a larger posterolateral portion

  4. BIOMECHANICS • Posterolateral bulky portion is tight in extension • Anteromedial bundle is tight in flexion • Ultimate tensile load :2160 +/- 157 N • Approx 85% resistance to anterior tibial displasment

  5. Maximum laxity in 30 deg flexion

  6. Biomechanical characteristics • ACL does not remain an isometric or constant length structure • Unsectioned ACL :2-5mm anterior translation at full extension 5-8 mm at 30 deg flexion by application 100N anterior force

  7. ACL rupture • Common and severe injury particularly in compact sports as rugby • Usual mechanism of injury knee hyperextension or external rotation in flexion

  8. AP instability • 7-9 mm of increased translation (100N anterior force) • Supporting structures in ACL rupture: iliotibial band 24% medial capsule 22% lateral capsule 20% MCL 16% LCL 12% Quadriceps and hamstrings in a certain degree also Baratta et al 1988

  9. Moment vs. time. Examples of quadriceps avoidance Devita et all 1998 Timony et all 1993
