Abstract

"The primary goal of this study was to see if age affects the usability of various knee structures. Cadavers are used to assess each knee structure’s ability to withstand force and ultimately, examine the distribution of contributions across the knee structures. It is also important to assess potential relationships between knee structures and how they contribute to the ability to take force in relationship to one another. In this presentation we illustrate statistical methods used to identify how various knee structures are affected by age, determine if there are relationships between structures and determine if there are relationships between knee structures and their ability to hyperextend."
