No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Meniscal tears and RAMP lesions are frequently seen together with ACL injuries. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of meniscus repair and RAMP lesion repair ACL reconstruction surgery in terms of muscle strength, proprioception, and balance. In our study, the clinical outcomes of both anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR), medial meniscus repair (MR) and RAMP lesion repair (RR) have been compared with those of isolated ACLR.

Conditions

  • Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injuries
  • Meniscus Lesion

Interventions

OTHER

Muscle strength measurement

Muscle strength of both legs, maximal reciprocal concentric isokinetic knee extension (quadriceps) and flexion (hamstring) at 60°/s, 90°/s and 180°/s speeds were evaluated

OTHER

Knee joint proprioception

Knee joint proprioception was assessed by joint position sense. Joint position sense was measured by the previously taught ability to actively find joint position (EPAB)

OTHER

Balance

The patients and healthy individuals participating in our study were evaluated with the General Stability Index (GSI) for general balance ability, Anterior-Posterior Stability Index (APSI) for anterior-posterior balance ability, Medial-Lateral Stability Index (MLSI) for lateral balance ability and Fall Risk Index (DRI) and Biodex Balance System (Biodex Inc., Shirley, New York, USA) for fall risk. High values obtained indicate deterioration in balance and increased risk of falling.

OTHER

Fall risk test

Biodex Balance System (Biodex Inc., Shirley, New York, USA) for fall risk

OTHER

Tegner Activity Level

Tegner Activity Level and the Turkish version of the Lysholm Knee Scoring Scale by Çelik et al. were used to subjectively determine the functional level in individuals undergoing ACL reconstruction surgery.
