However, the amount of ATT caused by quadriceps contraction is influenced by the patellar ligament insertion angle (PLIA). The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that quadriceps usage during walking correlates to individual anatomical variations in the extensor mechanism as defined by PLIA. PLIA and gait were measured for ACL\u2010deficient knees, using subjects' contralateral knees as controls. In ACL\u2010deficient knees, PLIA was negatively correlated (<jats:italic>R<\/jats:italic><jats:sup>2<\/jats:sup>\u2009=\u20090.59) to peak knee flexion moment (balanced by net quadriceps moment), while no correlation was found in contralateral knees. Reduction in peak flexion moment in ACL\u2010deficient knees compared to their contralateral knees was distinctive in subjects with large PLIA, possibly to avoid excessive ATT. These results suggest that subject\u2010specific anatomic variability of knee extensor mechanism may account for the individual variability previously observed in adaptation to a quadriceps reduction strategy following ACL injury. The average (\u00b11 SD) PLIA of ACL\u2010deficient knees (21.1\u2009\u00b1\u20093.4\u00b0) was less than the average PLIA of contralateral knees (23.9\u2009\u00b1\u20093.1\u00b0). This altered equilibrium position of the tibiofemoral joint associated with reduced PLIA and adaptations of gait patterns following ACL injury may be associated with degenerative changes in the articular cartilage. In the future, individually tailored treatment and rehabilitation considering individuals' specific extensor anatomy may improve clinical outcomes. \u00a9 2007 Orthopaedic Research Society.
