TL;DR: In this article, the authors compare side-to-side differences for knee kinematics between anatomic single-bundle (SB) and anatomic double-branch (DB) ACLR during downhill running at 6 and 24 months post ACLR using high-accuracy dynamic stereo X-ray imaging.

TL;DR: For both the Lachman test and the pivot shift test, single-bundle ACL reconstruction restored kinematics in the UKA knee to magnitudes similar to those in the ACL-intact knee.

Management of the contaminated anterior cruciate ligament graft.
TL;DR: The results of this review suggest that the optimal agent for sterilizing a dropped graft is chlorhexidine, and a protocol of mechanical agitation and serial dilution with a polymyxin B-bacitracin solution was also highly effective; however, the sample size was too small to realistically recommend its use.

TL;DR: A progressive increase in rotatory knee laxity, defined by side-to-side differences in quantitative pivot shift, was observed in patients with partial ACL tears, those with complete ACL Tears, and those who had undergone failed ACL reconstruction.
