Background The efficacy of arthroscopic surgery for the treatment of osteoarthritis of the
knee is unknown. Methods We conducted a single-center, randomized, controlled trial of …

Purpose To determine the effects of increasing anterior-posterior (AP) tibial slope on knee
kinematics and in situ forces in the cruciate ligaments. Methods Ten cadaveric knees were …

Background: To date, studies directly comparing the rerupture rate in patients with an
Achilles tendon rupture who are treated with surgical repair with the rate in patients treated …

The adduction moment about the knee during walking gait has been proposed as an indirect
measure of dynamic knee joint load. However, the relative contributions of the variables …

Background: Previously reported complications in medial opening wedge (MOW) high tibial
osteotomy (HTO) vary considerably in both rate and severity. Purpose: (1) To determine the …

Background Previous studies have shown that increasing tibial slope can shift the resting
position of the tibia anteriorly. As a result, sagittal osteotomies that alter slope have recently …

Objective To evaluate the effect of medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy on gait,
radiographic, and patient‐reported outcomes over a 2‐year postoperative period in patients with …

Objective To estimate the test–retest reliability of the peak external knee adduction moment
during walking in patients with medial compartment knee osteoarthritis (OA), and to describe …

More than 100,000 anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstructions are performed annually
in the United States [1]. The rates of good or excellent long-term results in terms of …
