ObjectivesTo estimate the risk of clinically diagnosed knee osteoarthritis (OA) after different types of knee injuries in young adults.MethodsIn a longitudinal cohort study based on population-based healthcare data from Skåne, Sweden, we included all persons aged 25–34 years in 1998–2007 (n=149 288) with and without diagnoses of knee injuries according to International Classification of Diseases (ICD)-10. We estimated the HR of future diagnosed knee OA in injured and uninjured persons using Cox regression, adjusted for potential confounders. We also explored the impact of type of injury (contusion, fracture, dislocation, meniscal tear, cartilage tear/other injury, collateral ligament tear, cruciate ligament tear and injury to multiple structures) on diagnosed knee OA risk.ResultsWe identified 5247 persons (mean (SD) age 29.4 (2.9) years, 67% men) with a knee injury and 142 825 persons (mean (SD) age 30.2 (3.0) years, 45% men) without. We found an adjusted HR of 5.7 (95% CI 5.0 to 6.6) for diagnosed knee OA in injured compared with uninjured persons during the first 11 years of follow-up and 3.4 (95% CI 2.9 to 4.0) during the following 8 years. The corresponding risk difference (RD) after 19 years of follow-up was 8.1% (95% CI 6.7% to 9.4%). Cruciate ligament injury, meniscal tear and fracture of the tibia plateau/patella were associated with greatest increase in risk (RD of 19.6% (95% CI 13.2% to 25.9%), 10.5% (95% CI 6.4% to 14.7%) and 6.6% (95% CI 1.1% to 12.2%), respectively).ConclusionIn young adults, knee injury increases the risk of future diagnosed knee OA about sixfold with highest risks found after cruciate ligament injury, meniscal tear and intra-articular fracture.

Volleyball players often land on a single leg following a spike shot due to a shift in the center of gravity and loss of balance. Landing on a single leg following a spike may increase the probability of non-contact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries. The purpose of this study was to compare and analyze the kinematics and kinetics differences during the landing phase of volleyball players using a single leg (SL) and double-leg landing (DL) following a spike shot. The data for vertical ground reaction forces (VGRF) and sagittal plane were collected. SPM analysis revealed that SL depicted a smaller knee flexion angle (about 13.8°) and hip flexion angle (about 10.8°) during the whole landing phase, a greater knee and hip power during the 16.83–20.45% (p = 0.006) and 13.01–16.26% (p = 0.008) landing phase, a greater ankle plantarflexion angle and moment during the 0–41.07% (p < 0.001) and 2.76–79.45% (p < 0.001) landing phase, a greater VGRF during the 5.87–8.25% (p = 0.029), 19.75–24.14% (p = 0.003) landing phase when compared to DL. Most of these differences fall within the time range of ACL injury (30–50 milliseconds after landing). To reduce non-contact ACL injuries, a landing strategy of consciously increasing the hip and knee flexion, and plantarflexion of the ankle should be considered by volleyball players.

Abstract Introduction ACL injury is one of the most common injuries of the knee joint in sports. As accompanying osseous injuries of the ACL rupture a femoral impression the so-called lateral femoral notch sign and a posterolateral fracture of the tibial plateau are described. However, frequency, concomitant ligament injuries and when and how to treat these combined injuries are not clear. There is still a lack of understanding with which ligamentous concomitant injuries besides the anterior cruciate ligament injury these bony injuries are associated. Materials and methods One hundred fifteen MRI scans with proven anterior cruciate ligament rupture performed at our center were retrospectively evaluated for the presence of a meniscus, collateral ligament injury, a femoral impression, or a posterolateral impression fracture. Femoral impressions were described according to their local appearance and posterolateral tibial plateau fractures were described using the classification of Menzdorf et al. Results In 29 cases a significant impression in the lateral femoral condyle was detected. There was a significantly increased number of lateral meniscal (41.4% vs. 18.6% p = 0.023) and medial ligament (41.4% vs. 22.1%; p = 0.040) injuries in the group with a lateral femoral notch sign. 104 patients showed a posterolateral bone bruise or fracture of the tibial plateau. Seven of these required an intervention according to Menzdorf et al. In the group of anterior cruciate ligament injuries with posterolateral tibial plateau fracture significantly more lateral meniscus injuries were seen (p = 0.039). Conclusion In the preoperative planning of ACL rupture accompanied with a positive femoral notch sign, attention should be paid to possible medial collateral ligament and lateral meniscus injuries. As these are more likely to occur together. A posterolateral impression fracture of the tibial plateau is associated with an increased likelihood of the presence of a lateral meniscal injury. This must be considered in surgical therapy and planning and may be the indication for necessary early surgical treatment.
