Background:The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is one of the major knee structures. It consists of anteromedial bundle (AMB) and posterolateral bundle (PLB). Rupture of the ACL is one of the most prevalent traumas among athletes. There are two ways to reconstruct the rupture; Single–bundle and double–bundle (DB) reconstruction. Precise study on bundles anatomy, the exact number of attachments and knee flexion angle with an appropriate place of bundles and also choosing the best angle for the grafts are so important in successful reconstructing of the bundles. In this research, the general attempt was to assess anatomy and the act of the ACL is and bundles in Iranian population. Methods:We obtained twelve fresh-frozen cadaver knees (two females, ten males).
The average age of them was 30 years; they were mostly between 27 and 34 years old. Initially, skin, muscles, and patellar and articular capsule were removed. Then, bundle attachments, knee movements in flexion angle, extension and stiffness of both bundles were evaluated. Thereafter, on 0, 30, 60, 90, 120, and 180° angle knee flexion the bundles degree stiffness evaluated in different directions. During the process, to measure bundles size, digital camera for photography, oblique for measuring the angles, and micrometer were utilized. From all next of kin written consent testimonial form was obtained.
Results:In all knees, two bundles were identified as distinct. AMB attachment location in the anterior region observed as semi-lunate and in one case, it was rounded. In all cases, two bundles of full knee extension were paralleled, and the AMB was anterior to the PLB; with increasing flexion angle, femoral attachment location of AMB was in back direction and femoral attachment location of PLB moved toward the front direction. Two bundles were in the most amount of cross state, which the angle was 90°. From the stiffness point of view in all 6 samples, the PLB had the most tension in extension state, and the AMB had the most tension in 120° flexion.
INTRODUCTIONAnterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is one of the frequent sites of injury in sport, which have been managed by surgical procedure preferably.– The purpose of ACL reconstruction techniques is the renovation of native anatomy and function of ligament., Single bundle ACL reconstruction is one of the established surgical methods, although, 30% of patients have not returned to normal level of function and osteoarthritic changes were developed in 60-90% of them in long-term follow-up,– which increase the attentions toward double bundle (DB) reconstruction method. METHODSWe obtained twelve fresh-frozen cadaver knees (two females, ten males). The average age of them was 30 years; they were mostly between 27 and 34 years old. ACL torn knees, history of previous surgery, injury, and degenerative disease to the knees were excluded from the study.
There were six left and six right knees. Ethical approval of this study was obtained from the Ethics Committee of Tehran University of Medical Science. Skin, muscles, patella, and the joint capsule were observed and documents were recorded then except the ACL, PCL, medial, and lateral meniscus and the collateral ligaments, all soft tissues were removed. Identifying the AM and PL bundle were done according to tension pattern of them during joint motion, AMB was tighten during flexion, and the PLB was tighten during extension.
The two bundles were remarked by wrapping a string. After that the PCL ligament was excised and to expose the femoral attachment of the ACL the medial femoral condyle was removed with a spots Tension pattern and anatomical position change of each bundle were evaluated at 0, 30, 60, 90, 120, and 180° of knee flexion.Following that, femoral and tibial attachment sites were marked with ink. After removal of the AM and PL bundle, the center of the femoral insertion site of each bundle was also marked. The anatomical position of femoral and tibial insertion site of two bundles was described three planes (sagital, frontal, transvers). We determined the angle formed between a horizontal line and a line connecting the center of the femoral insertion of each bundle at 90 knee flexion and full extension. Then, the length and width of the length of the ACL tibial insertion was measured as the distance between the anterior and the posterior edge of the tibial insertion and the width was measured at its widest part between tibial condyle.
The length and the width of the insertion on the femur were measured in maximal flexion of the knee joint. The length of the femoral insertion was measured from the most proximal to the most distal point of ACL insertion in the direction of posterior femoral cortex. The width of the femoral insertion was measured as the greatest perpendicular distance between the line of femoral insertion length and the beginning of the joint surface at the point of outer femoral condyle's greatest convexity. Attachments were measured by digital photographs or micrometer. The length of the AMB of the ACL was measured from the anterior edge of the tibial insertion to the medial part of femoral insertion along frontal portion of the AMB. The length of PLB was measured from the posterior edge of tibial insertion to the lateral part of femoral insertion, along back portion of the PLB were measured by a standard micrometer. The ranges along with the mean of our measurements were reported.
The femoral insertion area of the AM bundleThe PL bundle was located in anterior aspect of AM attachment site with semilunar shape except one cadaver with round shape attachment. Russian prison mafia 2 release. The insertion site of PL bundle was about 49 mm 2. The tibial insertion area of the AM bundle with semilunar shape in ten cadavers and oval in two cadavers was originated from anteromedian of tibial plateau and medial to the tibial spine with attachment area of 63.87 mm 2. The PL bundle area was also located at the anteromedian of tibial plateau but lateral to the tibial spine with attachment site of 51 mm 2.
In fact, the tibial spine separated the tibial origin of these two bundles. The length and width of AM and PL bundles were reported in. DISCUSSIONIn all cadavers we distinguished two separate bundles in the ACL ligament, anteromedial and posterolateral bundle, which was consistent with some previous studies., As revealed in literature, the Odensten et al. And Heming et al. Described one structure, and Aims et al.
And Hollis et al. Found three bundles in ACL anatomy.,One of the essential factors predicting success in DB ACL reconstruction technique is graft tunnel placement, which requires accurate description of the bundle attachment on femur and tibia. In our study, the femoral attachment of AM bundle was in the posterior-inferior part of the inner surface of the lateral condyle and PL bundle in anterior aspect of it. The posterior part of the inner surface of the lateral condyle has been described by some previous studies as the femoral ACL origin., Hefzy and Zavras, have revealed that minor change in the femoral insertion site of ligament had resulted in the length and tensioning patterns difference of the ACL. The tibial insertion area of the AM and PL bundles were anteromedian of tibial plateau where tibial spine separated their origins. Tibial attachment area of AM and PL were 63.87 mm 2 and 51 mm 2 in our samples, which were in range of other studies, 56 mm 2 to136 mm 2 for AM and 52 mm 2 to 93 mm 2 for the PL bundle.
Furthermore, Femoral attachment area of AM and PL were 63.83 mm 2 and 49 mm 2 in our samples, which were in range of other studies, 44 mm 2 to120 mm 2 for AM and 40 mm 2 to 103 mm 2 for the PL bundle.In other observation, AM and PL was parallel in the sagittal plane with full extended knee and the AM bundle was located in the anterior proximal aspect of the PL bundle, however, the bundles twisted around each other with increasing degrees of knee flexion toward 90° and femoral insertion site of AM and PL bundles were displaced to posterior and anterior respectively. CONCLUSIONIn our survey, tension pattern study of the AM and PL bundle demonstrated AM bundle tighten as the knee was flexed toward 120°, and PL bundle was tighten at full extension.
