What a Torn ACL Really Looks Like (Cadaver Dissection Explained...)

In this video, Jonathan from the Institute of Human Anatomy explores the anatomy of the human knee, focusing on the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) using real human cadaver dissections. The video delves into what the ACL does, how it can be injured or torn, and discusses various treatment options, including different surgical grafts like hamstring or patellar tendon grafts, and the use of cadaver ligaments. Additionally, strategies to reduce the risk of ACL tears through neuromuscular training are covered.
