Although the knowledge of preoperative knee
laxity measurements is evolving, some factors
are still insufficiently understood. Current
rotational arthrometers seem to be insufficiently
precise to evaluate the influence the laxity
increase induced by extraarticular injuries in
general and anterolateral instabilities in
particular.
