The stress-strain data of the hip capsule ligaments are gender and side independent suggesting a smaller contribution to passive stiffness
Background: The ligaments in coherence with the capsule of the hip joint are known to contribute to hip stability. Nevertheless, the contribution of the mechanical properties of the ligaments and gender- or side-specific differences are still not completely clear. To date, comparisons of the hip cap...
