Editorial Commentary: Knee Anterolateral Ligament Cadaveric, Biomechanical Analysis Should Include Tensioning of All Knee Dynamic Structures.

Although most reports in the literature suggest that the knee anterolateral structures contribute to the anterolateral rotational stability of the knee, the extent of its contribution is still controversial. There are many dynamic structures that also affect the stability of the knee joint, including the iliotibial band and quadriceps muscle. Although not all of the dynamic structures surrounding the knee influence stability associated with the anterior cruciate ligament, we recommend that cadaveric, biomechanical analysis of the knee anterolateral ligament and related structures include tensioning of all knee dynamic structures to avoid potential biases.
