<p>A cruciate ligament prosthesis which maintains the functional isometrics of the knee while preventing bone problems therein. The prosthesis consists of a flexible cable (1) of which one end is hinged to a pivot (2) implanted in the condylus while its other end is attached to the tibia via a length-adjusting arrangement (5, 6, 7). Said prosthesis is particularly suitable for sportspersons with a torn cruciate ligament who are required to resume their normal activities promptly.</p> |
