The kinematic analysis of female subjects after double-bundle anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction during single-leg squatting

This kinematic study exhibited kinematic characteristics of ACL-reconstructed knees of female subjects. Double-bundle anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction could not quite restore the normal kinematics of female-involved legs compared with both uninjured legs of female subjects and healthy female controls. In future studies, restoring the correct alignment of ACL reconstructed knee during single-leg squatting would be expected to reduce ACL re-injury and to assist a safe return to sport activities.
