Abstract

PURPOSE: To determine whether the deep fibers of the iliotibial band (dITB) or the anterolateral ligament (ALL) provides more control of a simulated pivot shift and whether a minimally invasive anterolateral reconstruction (ALR) designed to functionally restore the ALL and dITB is mechanically equiv...
