Surgical management is recommended for severe acute or for chronic symptomatic instability of the proximal tibiofibular joint. Although the anterior ligamentous complex has been reported to be stronger than the posterior complex, biomechanical data are lacking.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Purpose:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>To determine the ultimate load of the anterior and posterior ligamentous complexes of the proximal tibiofibular joint to determine optimal graft selection.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Study Design:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Controlled laboratory study.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Ten nonpaired, fresh-frozen knee specimens were dissected to expose the anterior and posterior proximal tibiofibular ligamentous complexes. The tibia was split in the coronal plane to separate the anterior and posterior ligamentous complexes, and the fibula was left intact. Specimens were secured in a dynamic testing machine and preconditioned for 10 cycles between 2 and 10 N at 0.1 Hz followed by loading to failure at a rate of 25 mm\/min.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      The mean (\u00b1SD) ultimate load of the anterior complex (517 \u00b1 144 N) was significantly greater than the mean ultimate load of the posterior complex (322 \u00b1 160 N) ( P = .012).
