Comparison Between the Use of the Tensioner and Standard Surgical Technique for Ligament Balancing of Total Knee Prostheses
the objective of the present study is to compare the post-operative laxity using stress radiographs and clinical scores in two groups of patients undergoing primary PS TKA with identical prosthetic model performed in two specialized centers, of which one group implanted with standard technique and one group through the intraoperative …
Validity and Reliability of the Turkish Version of the Tegner Activity Score
The goal of this observational study is to learn about patients who will undergo anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. The main questions it aims to answer are: Is the Turkish version of the Tegner Activity Score a valid scale? Is the Turkish version of the Tegner Activity Score a reliable scale? …
External vs Combined Focus Effects on Landing in Female Athletes
Female athletes are at higher risk of knee injuries, particularly non-contact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries, often caused by dynamic knee valgus during landing. Proper landing techniques and neuromuscular training are crucial for injury prevention. Attentional focus strategies, such as external focus (EF) and internal focus (IF), can influence movement …
Clinical-instrumental Evaluation and Assessment of Return to Sports Activity in Patients Surgically Treated for Isolated "Stener-like" Lesions of the Medial Collateral Ligament (MCL) or in the Context of Multiligament Injuries and Articular Fractures
The knee is a complex joint stabilized by four main ligaments: the anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments and the medial and lateral collateral ligaments. Multiligamentous knee injuries involve at least two ligaments and usually result from high-energy trauma, causing significant functional limitations. One specific injury is the "Stener-like" lesion of …
Correlation Between Psychological Readiness, Knee Function, and Isokinetic Performance After Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction (ACLR) Using Peroneus Longus Tendon Graft (PL-ACL-2025)
This clinical trial aims to investigate the correlation between psychological readiness, knee function, and isokinetic performance after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) using the Peroneus Longus tendon graft (PLT). ACL injuries are common among athletes, and the standard treatment is ACL reconstruction surgery (ACLR). However, the success of the surgery …
Quadriceps Motor Unit Adaptation to Simulated Knee Injury
This study investigates how simulated knee injury-via artificial joint effusion or deafferentation-affects quadriceps motor unit behavior in healthy young adults. Participants will complete neuromuscular testing during a single 2-hour lab session. This research seeks to improve understanding of muscle inhibition and inform interventions after real-world knee trauma.
Clinical and Instrumental Assessment of Meniscal ROOT Tears Treated Through Suture to the Posterior Cruciate Ligament
The menisci are crucial for knee stability and functionality. Composed of fibrocartilaginous structure, they have an anatomical and biomechanical arrangement that makes them essential for load transmission and the prevention of osteoarthritis. Meniscal root lesions, known as "ROOT tears," compromise their protective function on the cartilage, leading to increased contact …
Fibrine Clot-augmented Repair of Longitudinal Meniscus Tears
Longitudinal meniscal tears are a type of meniscal injury characterized by a displaced fragment of the meniscus that flips over into the joint, often resembling a buckle or handle. These tears typically occur in the medial meniscus and are often associated with traumatic knee injuries, particularly in athletes. The displaced …
Losartan to Improve Outcomes After Multi-ligament Knee Injury
Multi-ligament knee injuries (MLKIs) can occur during military training, sports injuries, or traumatic events such as motor vehicle accidents and can be devastating events. These complex injuries involving disruption of 2 or more ligaments often coincide with injuries to arteries, nerves, tendons, menisci, and/or fractures and can be devastating events. …
Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (PEMF) Therapy for Post-operative Pain Following Orthopedic Surgery
The primary objective of this study is to prospectively determine, at 10 days after orthopedic shoulder or knee surgery, if pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) therapy is beneficial in reducing patient-reported post-operative pain, as measured by visual analog scale (VAS). The amount of pain medication taken daily and the physical function …
