Results of a kinematic study describe the biomechanical functions of the knee with medial compartment osteoarthritis before and after PCL-retaining total knee arthroplasty. These results may someday ...

Background The posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) plays an important role in maintaining physiological kinematics and function of the knee joint. To date mainly in-vitro models or combined magnetic ...

Knee kinematics were evaluated qualitatively by animations of the anatomic landmark points and quantitatively by modified Grood and Suntay kinematic calculations for joint rotations at each time point ...

Human Performance Laboratory, Faculty of Kinesiology, University of Calgary, Calgary, Alberta, Canada Background: An increase in knee laxity during the menstrual cycle may increase the risk of ...

In this episode, Dr. Andrew Star, a leading orthopedic surgeon at Rothman Institute, discusses his expertise in joint reconstruction and the transformative impact of kinematic alignment techniques. He ...

The subtalar joint, mediating motion between the talus and calcaneus, is fundamental to foot function, contributing to both stability and adaptability during gait. Its biomechanics involve a complex ...

Since this could be a reasonable mechanism in the development of OA in patients with PCL deficiency we aimed in this study the simultaneous investigation of tibiofemoral and patellofemoral kinematics ...
