What is the anterior crossed liga?

The front crossing liga is a tread in a hard, fibrous connective tissue in the middle of the human knee joint. It is one of the four main ties in the knee. The anterior crossed ligament is associated with a tibia or shin bone and femur or femur. The medial collateral liga is along the inside of the knee joint and prevents its bending inward. The side collateral ligament leads along the outer side of the knee joint and prevents the knee joint from bending outwards. The rear crossed ligament works in conjunction with the front cross ligament and prevents the tibia from alignment and sliding back under the femur. The front and rear ligaments are responsible for maintaining the right anatomical position of the femur and tibia. Another function of the front of the VAZ is to allow stable knee joint rotation. If this liga suffers injury, such as a tear, the knee joint becomes much less stable.

Tear the anterior crossed inAZA is one of the most common knee injuries related to sports. This injury may occur when the knee suffers from a sudden direct blow when landing after a jump or when the joint circles while the leg is firmly placed on the ground. The bite then exaggerated and cannot face the fact that power will be developed. The final result is a tear in custody. Injuries of the anterior cross ligament are more common in women than men, which is considered an anatomical, muscle and hormonal differences found between men and women.

Often there is a sound sound when the front crossed Ligamentis has torn. Severe pain and feeling of instability are usually accompanied by this injury. Extensive swelling usually occur along with extensive tenderness. The movement of the joint will be limited, including the inability to completely straighten the knee.

extensive or complete tear of the anterior crossed ligament usually requires surgery to replace the ligament. The operation is followed by a period of immobilization to allow healing. Intensive rehabilitation followsAing mode designed to obtain maximum flexibility, mobility and joint rotation. Rehabilitation may take six to nine months to restore normal activity.
