## Abstract Retropatellar pain often accompanies malalignment syndromes and frequently is attributed to excessive patellofemoral contact stresses. Elevation (anterior displacement) of the tibial tubercle has been recommended to relieve these conditions. The degree to which patellar contact forces a

## Abstract The Maquet procedure โ elevation of the anterior tibial tubercle โ has been recommended for treatment of symptomatic osteoarthrosis of the patellofemoral joint. Although the operation was first described 30 years ago, it remains controversial, both on a clinical and on a biomechanical b
## Abstract We studied the healing response of a devitalized anterior cruciate ligament to a treatment of initial anteriorโposterior joint translation in goats. Devitalization and devascularization were achieved by five successive freezeโthaw cycles. Anteriorโposterior translation was surgically al
## Abstract This study sought to determine anterior force in the porcine knee during simulated 6โdegreeโofโfreedom (DOF) motion to establish the role of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). Using a 6โDOF robot, a simulated ovine motion was applied to porcine hind limbs while recording the correspo
