前外側回旋不安定性抑制に対する膝外方組織の役割
Biomechanical Role of Lateral Structures in Controlling Anterolateral Rotatory Laxity: The Iliotibial Tract Operative Techniques in Orthopaedics Volume 27, Issue 2, June 2017, Pages 96-101 Recent research, focusing on rotatory knee laxity, has intrigued the whole orthopaedic knee community. First popularized by Hughston et al, peripheral knee injuries at the time of cruciate ligament rupture have regained more and more recognition, which has led to a better understanding of these injuries. Recent research has been focused on anterolateral rotatory instability, especially regarding those structures that are responsible for the high-grade anterior subluxation of the lateral tibial plateau when damaged. Work at Imperial College London showed that the iliotibial tract (ITT) was the primary restraint to internal tibial rotation, especially the capsulo-osseous layer of the ITT, which contributed almost 25% of controlling a 5-Nm internal ro...
