Fig. 1From: Modified Lemaire tenodesis reduces anterior cruciate ligament graft forces during internal tibial torque loadingSpecimen preparation: 1, lateral extra-articular tenodesis using the modified Lemaire technique with a 10 mm wide strip of the iliotibial band shuttled deep to the lateral collateral ligament and fixed at 60° of flexion with 20 N [23]; 2, cortically fixed part of the custom graft force measuring device (in line with femoral graft tunnels); 3, fixture for applying anterior tibial translation forces, including a tibial ring; 4, embedding mould with optical markers to evaluate knee joint motion; 5, armed muscle tendons (quadriceps and hamstring) for active dynamic preconditioning cyclingBack to article page
