Why do patients with isolated PCL rupture experience no subjective knee joint instability during walking? An in vivo biomechanical study by Mingfeng Lu, Mingfeng Lu, Wei Chen, Jinpeng Lin, Jinpeng Lin, Wenhan Huang, Junqing Gao, Junqing Gao, Lilian Zhao, Shilin Li, Lilei He, Yu Zhang

“…ObjectiveThe aim of this study is to assess the kinematic changes in the knee joint during walking in patients with isolated PCL-deficiency (PCLD) to determine the presence of walking-related joint instability (mechanical instability—abnormal displacement form structural damage). Additionally, the study seeks to provide biomechanical insights into the observed differences between subjective and objective assessments.Methods35 healthy volunteers and 27 patients with isolated PCLD (both involved and uninvolved sides) were included in the study. …”
