About
Niv Marom is a leading orthopaedic researcher whose work focuses on the biomechanics of the knee, particularly in the context of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction and lateral extra-articular tenodesis (LET). His major contributions center on understanding how LET, when performed alongside ACL reconstruction, alters graft forces, knee kinematics, and lateral compartment contact mechanics. His most-cited paper (2020, 111 citations) demonstrated that LET significantly reduces ACL graft force and anterior tibial translation under pivoting and anterior drawer loads, providing critical biomechanical evidence for the procedure’s protective role. Marom has also shown that LET alters lateral compartment contact mechanics under simulated pivoting (2021, 27 citations) and that engagement of secondary restraints predicts anterior knee laxity (2019, 17 citations). His recent work (2024, 11 citations) further clarifies the role of LET in restraining internal tibial rotation. Through rigorous in vitro studies, Marom has advanced the surgical understanding of how to optimize ACL reconstruction outcomes, making his research essential reading for orthopaedic surgeons and sports medicine specialists.
