RESULTSRESULTS
• No difference for posterior translation (ACL ruptured or not )
• Posterior position is different from the radiological "zero position"
• It is the "starting position" for clinical tests and for arthrometric measurements

• Conclusive diagnosis for ACL rupture
• Better comprehension of laxity physiopathology
• Laxities classification
• Judicious surgical treatment adaptated to the lesions
