Static progressive stretching using a turnbuckle orthosis for elbow stiffness: a prospective study.

abstract：PURPOSE:Reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is the most frequently performed reconstructive surgery in the knee. Biomechanical studies have shown that double bundle (DB) reconstruction is better than single bundle (SB) reconstruction with regard to rotational stability. It is postulated that resectio...
