摘要
A knee joint contracture was reproduced. Using this knee joint, the myogenic and arthrogenic components were differentiated. The results show that the myogenic part is small and not different from normals. The results also suggest that the arthrogenic process leads to mechanically measurable changes before 90 days of immobilization.
