In 2018, the best available evidence has failed to show any significant clinical or functional difference between autograft and allograft for posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. Autograft patients may have higher complication rates. Both groups show good functional outcome after reconstruction.

Introduction: Stair ascent and descent are physically demanding tasks requiring higher functional ability of the lower extremity muscles and joint range of motion than level walking, and are associated with patient satisfaction after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). This study aimed to investigate stair ascent and descent ability after cruciate-retaining (CR)-TKA using the patient-reported outcomes, and to examine the role of knee sagittal stability and handgrip strength in postoperative stair ascent and descent ability.
Materials And Methods: This study included 84 female patients who underwent primary unilateral CR-TKA for knee osteoarthritis at our institute between April 2015 and February 2019.

Objective To investigate the effects of rotation stability after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) on subjective outcomes,sport performance,psychological readiness,and return to sport. Methods The patients who underwent ACLR in the Sports Hospital,National Institute of Sports Medicine,General Administration of Sport of China from January 2015 to January 2021 were followed up during the period from November 2022 to December 2023.The patients were grouped according to the results of the pivot shift test (PST) of the affected knee at the last follow-up visit.

: This study investigated associated meniscus and ligament injuries in tibial plateau fractures using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and assessed soft tissue injuries in relation to the Schatzker classification and Tscherne classification. : The data of 185 patients who sustained tibial plateau fractures from January 2010 to April 2021 were retrospectively reviewed. Fractures were classified according to the Schatzker classification system.

Introduction: the two most used types of prosthesis are posterior cruciate ligament preserving (CR) and posterostabilized (PS). Proponents of CR TKA cited greater stability, greater range of motion, better proprioception, and greater kickback associated with the native posterior cruciate ligament.
Objective: to assess the degree of pain, return of mobility and functionality of the joint of patients who had TKA, between the years January 2018 and December 2022 at the Juárez Centro Medical Surgical Unit, using their records as a study unit.

Background: The rate of subjective failure after isolated primary posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (PCL-R) is relatively high, requiring an improved understanding of factors associated with inferior outcomes.
Purpose: To determine the association between patient and injury-related factors and total (surgical and clinical) failure at 2 years after PCL-R based on data from the Swedish National Knee Ligament Registry (SNKLR) and the Norwegian Knee Ligament Registry (NKLR).
Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 3.
