A potential clinical implication of these results is that orienting osteochondral grafts such that the direction of wear is aligned with the primary fiber direction at the articular surface may optimize the life of the graft.Previous studies on knee biomechanics have mainly focused on the joint structure itself, largely neglecting the material properties of the muscles and connective tissues around the knee joint. Therefore, this study was purposed to conduct a systematic in vivo examination of the material properties of muscles, tendons, and ligaments, and investigated the respective influences of gender and age on the material properties. The participants were 50 healthy males and females within the following four age groups 21-30 years, 31-40 years, 41-50 years, and above 51 years. The Young's moduli of the muscles, tendons, and ligaments around the knee joint were measured by shear wave elastography (SWE). Analysis of the Young's modulus results showed that excellent repeatability could be achieved by using SWE. For muscles, the intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and 95% confidence interval (CI) ranged between 0.952 and 0.987, and 0.923 and 0.992, respectively. The ICC ranged from 0.920 to 0.941, and the 95% CI was between 0.872 and 0.969 for tendons and ligaments. Additionally, the Young's moduli of the muscles, tendons, and ligaments of males were greater than those of females. With the exception for medial patellar retinaculum (MPR), the Young's moduli of other observed tissues decreased with age for both males and females, indicating that age has a significant impact on the Young's moduli of muscles, tendons, and ligaments. Hence, SWE is a reliable and repeatable technique that can be used to assess the Young's moduli of the muscles, tendons, and ligaments around the knee joint. Furthermore, gender and age affects the material properties. The results of this study provide an in viv
