Solving the Mystery of Non-contact Anterior Cruciate Ligament Injuries
IntroductionAnterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear is one of the most commonly seen knee injuries in sports (Griffin et al., 2000,Griffin et al., 2006). Majority of ACL injuries occur with non-contact mechanisms (Boden et al., 2000), and can be prevented (Griffin et al., 2000, Griffin et al., 2006). Significant research efforts have been made in the last decade to determine modifiable risk factors of sustaining non-contact ACL injuries so prevention strategies can be developed. A recent extensive literature review, however, failed to show any convincing scientific evidence to support a cause-and-effect relationship of those proposed risk factors for non-contact ACL injuries in the literature.
