The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is most often structures to be damaged. In this research investigated biomechanics of walking at the timing, kinematics and dynamics parameters for 34 patients which had verified rupture of ACL. The 11 patients were investigated before surgical treatment and 23 after it. Investigations of patients of the first group were made at the time of 1 week to 6 years after trauma of the knee joint (the average meaning is 18 months). The second group was investigated at the time from 1,5 month to 5,5 years (the average meaning is 13 months).At the current research we did not find any specific for rupture of ACL functional disturbances during level walking compare to normal data and healthy limp. However, we assume some tendency to increase of flection-extention movement at the damaged knee joint after surgery.This result could give us some basis for revision the term of instability, because we did not get definite symptoms at our study.

SummaryOver a period of 14 years, three cats with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture were seen in our practice. In all, the rupture had occurred without a history of previous trauma. All were treated surgically. All died within a period of 14 days. The reason of death was in all cases cardiomyopathy. We now suggest that cats with rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament undergo an electrocardiographic recording and eventually an thoracic radiography before surgery is considered. We also suggest that cats with ACL rupture should preferably be treated conservatively.
