Line of research:

Knee ligament instability

Summary

The main line of research in my work as advisor in the graduate program is instability of the knee ligaments, mainly related to the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and to the secondary restrictors (anterolateral ligament, menisci) of anterior and anterolateral knee instability. We currently have students researching the positioning of tibial tunnels and preservation of the ACL remnant, the influence of ligamentous hyperlaxity and knee hyperextension in the clinical outcomes of ACL reconstruction and the role of preoperative injury of the anterolateral ligament in the clinical post-ACL-reconstruction results. Since 2013, I have been conducting research on this topic with several international publications that today already have a large number of citations.
