What is a torn ACL?

Phoenix Orthopedic Evaluation Arizona Treatment Consultation...
The ACL (Anterior Cruciate Ligament) is a ligament in the center of your knee. The ACL gets damaged when twisted too far, which makes it a common injury in relation to sports or other physical activity. ACL Reconstruction is performed using a combination of open surgery and arthroscopic surgery. Before ACL reconstruction process begins, your surgeon will examine your knee arthroscopically, and repair any additional damage to the knee, such as a torn meniscus, or worn articular cartilage.

How can a meniscus be torn?

Frequently Asked Questions
The medial and lateral menisci are fixed between the two weight-bearing surfaces within the knee, and as such can become “pinched” by the other structures of the knee between the joint when an injury occurs. Typically, the injury involves twisting on a bent knee. When this happens the menisci can become torn (“torn cartilage”). Any form of physical movement can potentially cause a meniscal tear, although they tend to be associated with sporting activities.

Why was it torn down?

Fort Union Trading Post National Historic Site - Frequently ...
Historically, Fort Union was torn down in 1867 and used to expand Fort Buford. One of the reasons was that the trade was no longer profitable and with many businesses once they start to lose business they move on. There was also hostility from the Lakota Sioux which made trading at Fort Union dangerous to tribes who would come to trade. The final push for Fort Union was to move the remaining operations to Fort Benton where they continued actively with the Blackfeet trade.

Where was the Embarcadero Freeway and why was it torn down?

misc.transport.road FAQ
The Embarcadero Freeway, I-480, would have connected the Bay Bridge to the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, carrying mostly local traffic. The first section north from I-80 was built. Most San Francisco residents hated it because it blocked the view of the waterfront from the other side. After a 1989 earthquake almost made it collapse, it was permanently closed and torn down. The same thing happened to the northern half and most of the upper deck of the Central Skyway (US 101).

If my ACL is torn, should I have surgery to repair it?

injuryupdate.com.au - Australia's best information source fo...
a general rule, the body cannot repair a torn ACL if the tear is complete. Partial tears may sometimes heal but often will progress to becoming complete tears. If surgery is needed, the surgeon will not repair the ligament directly, as this has a low success rate, but will instead use a nearby tendon to reconstruct the original ligament.

My vet told me my pet has a "torn ACL" and that it should have a TPLO done. What are my options?

Frequently Asked Questions about knee surgery
Not all dogs require TPLO to restore knee function. Dogs weighing less than 40 pounds may have a different technique, often referred to as a "lateral suture technique", that will work equally well. This technique is not for overweight dogs. The recovery is slower but most dogs acheive almost normal function in the limb. This procedure does not work as well in larger dogs.

Why aren't the storm planes torn apart?

NOAA FAQ
Planes are not structurally destroyed by strong winds while in flight. Airliners routinely fly in jet streams with winds exceeding 150 mph over the US during the winter. It's the shear, or sudden change in horizontal or vertical winds that can destroy an aircraft, or cause its loss of control. That's why we don't fly through tornadoes. In a like manner, we routinely (but never casually) fly in the high wind environment of the hurricane and don't fear it tearing the plane apart.

Why does a torn meniscus cause pain?

What is a retinal detachment (torn retina)?

Retinal Detachment Treatment | Laser Eye Surgery Bay Area | ...
Retinal detachment is a serious condition that can lead to severe visual impairment or even total blindness in the affected eye. If any part of the retina is lifted or pulled from its normal position, it is considered detached, and will cause some vision loss. The detachment will almost always progress, and vision loss will increase, until it is treated. Therefore, retinal detachment is always considered an emergency.

I received an issue that was torn. What's up with that?

SWAT Magazine: Weapons, Tactics, Training - Faqs
This is a problem that all titles occasionally see due to the new (improved?) USPS High Speed sorting machines. Some have tried mailing in plastic bags, though industry reports indicate that this does not solve the problem. S.W.A.T.'s answer is to increase the paper weight on the first and last four pages to the weight that others use only on their covers (compare and see). Though more expensive, this is more effective.

What flavor should I get if I'm torn between two?

Cakelove | Cakes from Scratch
Provide your guests with two flavors if you can, because with cake, two is better than one!

What can I do about raised or torn grain?

California Cedar Products Company - Customer Support - Techn...
Keep the cutters sharp. Make sure the hold-downs are tight. Check feed roller pressure. Reduce slat feed rate. Increase spindle speed if possible. Check moisture content of slats. Raised grain can become a problem if moisture content is consistently greater than 15%. Though temperature and humidity are different for each manufacturing environment, we recommend storing the slats in a warehouse for at least two weeks and an additional 24 hours in the production area prior to use.
