Steeper lateral posterior tibial slope and greater lateral‐medial slope asymmetry correlate with greater preoperative pivot‐shift in anterior cruciate ligament injury

Steeper lateral posterior tibial slope and greater lateral‐medial slope asymmetry correlate with greater preoperative pivot‐shift in anterior cruciate ligament injury

Abstract Purpose To investigate the association between posterior tibial slope (PTS) and preoperative pivot‐shift phenomenon in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)‐injured knees. Methods Fifty unilateral ACL‐injured patients (mean age: 28.0 ± 11.4 years, 29 males) who underwent ACL reconstruction were...
