Tibial Rotation: average magnitude of tibial internal/external rotation (°). Tibial Translation: average magnitude of tibial anterior/posterior translation (mm). Medial condyle Contact point: average magnitude of anterior/posterior translation of tibiofemoral contact points on medial tibial condyle (mm). Lateral condyle Contact point: average magnitude of anterior/posterior translation of tibiofemoral contact points on lateral tibial condyle (mm).There were significant differences in Lateral condyle Flexion and Extension phase.Asterisk denotes P value < 0.05 by repeated measures ANOVA. Tukey’s test was used for post-hoc pair wise comparisons (p < 0.05).
