Abstract
Transverse plane rotational offsets comparable to those observed in anterior cruciate ligament deficient and reconstructed patients alter knee kinetics without significantly altering anterior cruciate ligament strain. As knee degeneration is attributed to abnormal knee loading profiles, altered transverse plane kinematics may contribute to this. However, altered transverse plane rotations likely play a limited role in anterior cruciate ligament injury risk as physiologic offsets failed to significantly influence anterior cruciate ligament strain during athletic tasks.
