INTRODUCTION: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are a serious problem encountered in many sports. It has been estimated that approximately 175,000 primary anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction surgeries are performed each year in the United States, with an estimated cost of over $2 billion1. Many other knee problems, such as chronic knee instability, can occur after a complete tear of the anterior cruciate ligament. Anterior cruciate ligament injuries continue to remain the largest problem in orthopedic sports medicine, especially in young female athletes between the ages of 14 and 19, driving the need for improved prevention and management.2. Non-contact anterior cruciate ligament injuries are the most common in sports. Most non-contact anterior cruciate ligament injuries occur when the person generates more force or moments on the knee that causes excessive loading on the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). Excessive loading may result due to sudden deceleration and repeated landing and rotation maneuvers1. R Dick reported that female athletes who engage in risk-increasing activities are at greater risk of anterior cruciate ligament injuries than males. His study showed that women are two to eight times more likely to have a non-contact anterior cruciate ligament injury3. This may be due to the fact that women have a smaller knee flexion angle during sporting activities. Studies have shown that after the age of 13, women's knee flexion angle decreases during a stop-jump activity. These findings show that females older than 13 years are more likely to sustain a non-contact anterior cruciate ligament injury.3. Current literature has shown that sagittal plane biomechanical factors such as increased posterior ground reaction force, small knee flexion angle, and increased quadriceps muscle force play an important role in loading the ACL. The G Li study demonstrated that the load on the ACL increases as the knee flexion angle de...... middle of paper... and that, whenever possible, women should take care of their ACLs . CONCLUSION: The data collected from this study help identify whether there is a gender difference when it comes to anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries. The results showed that women are more likely to suffer an anterior cruciate ligament injury than men. This was supported by analyzing force plate data and using the LESS scoring system. As a result of the numerous non-contact anterior cruciate ligament injury studies that have been conducted, many practical applications can be applied. The main practical application that emerged from these studies is the ability to prevent anterior cruciate ligament injuries without contact. To examine anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries in males and females in the future, studies conducted to examine the gender difference in sports are needed. These studies should involve a variety of sporting actions, not just jumping, and evaluate the impact on the ACL ligament.
