Bone Bruise Patterns After Noncontact Anterior Cruciate Ligament Tears Differ Between Alpine Skiers and Pivoting Sports Athletes
The prevalence of BBs in the lateral femoral condyle was higher in pivoting sports athletes than in alpine skiers after acute noncontact ACL tears. This suggests that ACL injuries in pivoting sports are associated with higher lateral compression forces in a pivot-shift mechanism, whereas anterior tibial translation and tibial rotation may be the predominant loading pattern in alpine skiing.
