Basic study of interference screw fixation stability in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction / Abdul Halim Abdullah … [et al.]

The failure of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) produces abnormal kinematics of the knee joint and leads to knee instability. Graft fixation is the critical issue in the ACL reconstruction especially during the primary post operative period. Interference screw has become as one of the most common us...

The maximum tunnel and screw stress has been found in 90 degree knee flexion fixation and decreases proportionally to the load and angle of fixation to 60 degree.
