Abstract
Introduction: As the optimal graft choice for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction continues to be debated, scientific interest into using the quadriceps tendon autograft (QT) has increased. Reported benefits of a QT graft include satisfactory structural size for graft harvesting, similar properties to the native ACL, and similar knee joint stability outcomes compared to other autografts. However, very little is known about biomechanical outcomes following QT ACL reconstruction. Therefore, the purpose of this pilot study was to examine trunk and lower limb kinematic variables of the operated limb and non-operated limb during single limb landings.
