THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN THE RANGE OF MOTON OF THE HIP JOINT WITH RUPTURED ANTERIOR CRUCIATE LIGAMENT.

Medicinski Pregled 2016 October
INTRODUCTION: A knee injury, especially anterior cruciate ligament. has recently become more common significantly affecting the life standard. There are many factors that cause an injury of the anterior eruciate ligament, ~nd one of them is limited range of motion in the hip joint. This studyhas been aimed at finding a relationship between the range of motion in the hip joint and the anterior eriiciate ligament injury. Matcrial and Methods. Of88 male athletes included in the study sample in 2014, 60 (68%) had ruptured knee anterior cruciate ligament and 28 (32%) were without an injury. There was no sianificant difference in sex, height, weight, age and time of injury between the two groups.

RESULTS: Significant differences were found in the range ofmotion between the lefi and right leg in both groups. The athletes with a ruptured anterior cruciate ligament had an abduction limit of the hip joint (p0.007) and a wider rang of motion of the knee joint (p0.O02) than thc athletes without the inj Liry.

CONCLUSION: Data obtained in this study suggest a possible relationship between a limited hip abduction of range of motion in athletes and an increased risk of anterior cruciate ligament injury.
