Abstract

In the present paper the current clinical knowledge about proprioception is given for the shoulder, knee, ankle, elbow and the radiocarpal joint. Proprioceptive capabilities are decreased after knee joint injury such as anterior cruciate ligament. Joint position sense is significantly improved by cruciate reconstruction. Thus, we review of the articles for the proprioception of the anterior cruciate ligament of the knee joint. The present information on proprioception will influence our clinical practice in the future. We should choose surgical procedures that not only reconstruct the anatomy, but also the neurophysiologic feed-back mechanism.
