Résumé
The purpose of this study was to reveal the possible influence of the tibial spine area on the occurrence of ACL injury. Thirty-nine subjects undergoing anatomical ACL reconstruction (30 female, 9 male: average age 29 ± 15.2) and 37 subjects with intact ACL (21 female, 16 male: average age 29 ± 12.5) were included in this study. In the anterior-posterior (A-P) and lateral knee radiograph, the tibial spine area was measured using a PACS system. In axial knee MRI exhibiting the longest femoral epicondylar length, the intercondylar notch area was measured. Tibial spine area, tibial spine area/body height, and tibial spine area/notch area were compared between the ACL tear and intact groups. The A-P tibial spine area of the ACL tear and intact groups was 178 ± 34 and 220.7 ± 58mm The A-P and lateral tibial spine area was significantly smaller in the ACL tear group when compared with the ACL intact group. Although the sample size was limited, a small tibial spine might be a cause of knee instability, which may result in ACL injury. Level III.
