A torn anterior cruciate ligament(ACL) is the most common serious ligamentous injury to the knee joint. The incidence of ACL tears seems to be increasing, at least partly as a result of the increasing participation of individuals of all ages in high-risk sports. The most commonly used graft source for ACL reconstruction is the autogenous bone-patellar tendon-bone graft unit. Despite a good success record. postoperative complications, such as infection, patellar contracture/patellar baja, patellar fracture, rupture of the patellar tendon, graft failure without reinjury, can occur following ACL surgery. The purpose of this paper is to provide guidelines regarding the key points of the reconstructive procedure in a sequence and how to prevent or minimize the complications that can follow ACL reconstructive surgery. We want this knowledge can help orthopaedic surgeons to understand the reasons for previous and current successes and failures of reconstruction of the ACL, and it can help them to plan the care of patients who have an injury of the ligament.

The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is mostly damaged in sporting activities. To reconstruct the damaged ACL, a patellar tendon (PT) is often the most preferred graft due to its fast healing and bone integration i.e. bone-patellar tendon-bone graft. Suitability of the PT often depends on the morphometric profile of the tendon. This study reported on the harvestable surface area (SA) of the tendon using a simple tracing method. The PT of 79 adult formalin-fixed cadavers of South Africans of European Ancestry were dissected, and the margins of the PT were traced on a wax paper before the tracings were scanned. The SA, straight proximal width (SPW), curved proximal width (CPW), straight distal width (SDW), curved distal width (CDW) and length of tendon (LOT) from the digitized image of the PT was measured. In addition, the length of the lower limbs was measured to normalize the measurements. The results showed no significant side differences, and the measurements were not sexually dimorphic. A strong correlation was reported for SA vs. LOT, SPW vs. CPW and SDW vs. CDW for both sexes and sides. The presented morphological profile provides additional information on the usability of the graft and with respect to healing and recovery.

The mechanical study on the anterior and posterior cruciate ligament(ACL, PCL) is of importance because the recent increase of outdoor and indoor activities is directly related to causing sport injuries on the knee joints. Constitutive models for many biological tissues have been known as hyperelasticitic models. The elastic behavior of ACL and PCL may be described by the free energy function which accounts for the matrix and the collagen fibers. This paper addresses a comparison of different types of the free energy function to the existing results.

The giant cell tumor of tendon sheath is very rarely present inside the knee joint. The authors report a case of intraarticular giant cell tumor of tendon sheath arising from posterior cruciate ligament which was successfully excised arthroscopically using posterior trans-septal portal at the time of arthroscopic reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament.

Objectives : The aim of this study was to report the effect of Korean medical therapy on pain and dysfunction after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. Methods : A 25-year-old man experienced severe pain after right ACL reconstruction surgery. He received Korean medical treatments such as acupuncture, herbal medicine, and physiotherapy from July 10, 2014 to August 2, 2014. Results : After the treatments, his visual analogue scale scores generally decreased and the range of motion of the right knee improved from $0^{\circ}$ to $90^{\circ}$. Furthermore, the Knee Infury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score increased from 99 to 142. Conclusion : The findings suggest that Korean medical treatments might be effectively used to treat pain and dysfunction after soft-tissue surgeries such as ACL reconstruction. Nevertheless, further research is warranted because of the limited sample size of this study.

Objective : The objective of this study is to report the effect of Korean Rehabilitation Treatment with CHUNA Manual Therapy and Exercise Therapy on Postoperative Anterior Cruciate Ligament rupture of knee. Methods : Two patients were treated by Korean Rehabilitation with CHUNA Manual Therapy and Exercise Therapy at knee. We evaluated the effectiveness by Visual Analog Scale(VAS) and Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index(WOMAC) and Range of motion(ROM) Results : Both patients had significant improvement on Knee ROM, VAS score and WOMAC index. Also physical examination of Knee was improved. Conclusions : This study showed that Korean Rehabilitation Treatment with CHUNA Manual Therapy and Exercise Therapy has meaningful effect on Postoperative of anterior cruciate ligament rupture of knee. But there is a limit on this study due to sufficient number of cases. Further studies will be needed.

저자들은 관절운동의 장애 없이 양측 슬관절의 탄발음과 동통 및 파행을 주소로 한 6세 소아에서 관절경을 통해, 일반적인 탄발음의 원인이 아닌 외측 원판형 연골의 비후된 근위부착형의 리스버그 인대와 전방십자인대의 확장된 기시부의 충돌에 의해 탄발음이 유발된 1례를 발견하고 이를 관절경적으로 절제함으로서 치료하여 좋은 결과를 얻었기에 문헌 고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.
