Editorial Commentary: Knee Anterolateral Ligament Mechanoreceptors: The First Step From Peripheral to Central Nervous System

Haluk Çabuk. Arthroscopy. 2019 Oct.

Abstract

The mechanoreceptors around the knee are of interest, including those mechanoreceptors related to the anterolateral ligament. Histopathologic evaluations of mechanoreceptors are the first steps in understanding the exact sensorimotor system of the extremities. Many studies have shown these mechanoreceptors, but more electrophysiologic studies are needed to make sense of the reported phenomena.
