description ABSTRACT Osteoarthritis is common following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ALCR), and aberrant gait biomechanics are considered a primary contributor. Somatosensory dysfunction potentially alters gait biomechanics, but this association is unclear. Therefore, the purposes of this investigation were to compare somatosensory function between limbs and evaluate associations between somatosensory function and gait biomechanics linked to osteoarthritis development in individuals with ALCR. Seventy‐three volunteers with ALCR participated. Gait biomechanics (peak vertical ground reaction force magnitude and loading rate, peak internal knee extension and valgus moments, peak knee flexion and varus angles, and quadriceps/hamstrings co‐activation) were assessed as subjects walked at their preferred speed. The somatosensory function was assessed via joint position sense error (knee flexion) and vibratory perception threshold (femoral epicondyles, malleoli, and first metatarsal). Though somatosensory function did not differ between the ACLR and contralateral limbs, poorer joint position sense in the ACLR limb was associated with lower loading rates and internal knee extension moments, and greater co‐activation. Poorer vibratory perception at the medial and lateral malleoli and first metatarsal head in the ACLR limb was associated with lower loading rates, greater internal knee valgus moments and varus angles, and greater co‐activation. Poorer vibratory perception at the medial malleolus and first metatarsal head in the contralateral limb was associated with greater peak knee varus angles and internal knee valgus moments. These results suggest that future research evaluating rehabilitation approaches for improving somatosensory function is warranted as a potential approach for restoring normal gait biomechanics and reducing osteoarthritis risk. © 2019 Orthopaedic Research Society.
