Can biomechanical testing after ACL reconstruction identify athletes at risk for subsequent ACL injury to the contralateral uninjured limb?
Background: Athletes are twice as likely to rupture the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) on their healthy contralateral knee than the reconstructed graft after ACL reconstruction (ACLR). Although physical testing is commonly used after ACLR to assess injury risk to the operated knee, strength, jump, and change-of-direc...
