Abstract:Objective:To describe the morphology of the tibial ACL insertion by histological assessment in the sagittal plane.Methods:For histology the native (undissected) tibial ACL insertion of 6 fresh-frozen cadaveric knees was cut into 4 sagittal sections parallel to the long axis of the medial tibial spine. The slices were stained with hematoxylin and eosin, Safranin O and Russell-Movat pentachrome. All slices were digitalized and analyzed at a magnification of ×20.Results:From medial to lateral the anterior-posteri… Show more
