Overview
Brief Summary
Actually, there are several laximeters for measuring anterior tibial translational in case of anterior cruciate ligament rupture. The most commonly used are telos, KT-1000, GnrB and Rolimeter. Results of these instrumented tests, which expressed in differential (millimeters values), have a bad correlation between them and so are not comparable in current literature. The aim of this study was to compare results of these tests and establish a ratio (pathologic knee laxity/ healthy knee laxity) to reduce differences between each instrumented test.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Comparison of anterior laxity measurement between pathologic and healthy knees.
Time Frame: 18 months
Collect and compare differential values of anterior laxity between pathologic and healthy knee obtained by four different laximeters (Telos, KT-1000, GnrB and Rolimeter)
Secondary Outcomes
- Correlation between the f4 laximeters results(18 months)
- Sensivity and specificity of each instrument(18 months)
- Value of the ratio : pathologic (anterior knee laxity) versus healthy knee(18 months)
