Summary of article contents:
Introduction : The aim of the study was to determine the time to and rate of the return to sports (RTS) after knee joint injury. The data obtained was analysed to fine line the commonly affected anatomical entity responsible and to correlate with Janumarma. Methodology : The symptoms assessed from the case proforma and MRI were compared to the Janu Marmabhighatha Lakshanas . The grading of injury and Khanjatha was determined with the help of unique scoring adapted for the study. Results: Based on literary review Khanjatha can be defined as a weakness in limbs resisting its complete functional mobility. Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) was found to be the most vulnerable structure. Cadaveric dissection studies showed the morphological significance of ACL to be placed as a Kandara has been surmised. Conclusion: Khanjatha is concluded as the difficulty in regaining complete functional mobility, which was observed in 70% of ACL injuries highlighting the plausible correlation of ACL as Janumarma.
