Anterolateral ligament reconstruction as an augmented procedure for double-bundle anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction restores rotational stability: Quantitative evaluation of the pivot shift test using an inertial sensor

摘要

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the biomechanical function of the anterolateral structures (ALS) of the knee regarding rotational stability, and to attempt to verify the effectiveness of anterolateral ligament (ALL) reconstruction concomitant with double-bundle anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction by quantifying the pivot shift test (PST) using an inertial sensor.
