<jats:title>Purpose</jats:title>
<jats:p>An increased posterior tibia plateau angle is associated with increased risk for anterior cruciate ligament injury and re-rupture after reconstruction. The aims of this study were to determine whether the tibia plateau angle correlates with dynamic anterior tibia translation (ATT) after an anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction and whether the tibia plateau angle correlates with aspects of knee kinematics and kinetics during jump landing.</jats:p>

<jats:title>Methods</jats:title>
<jats:p>Thirty-seven patients after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with autograft hamstring tendon were included. Knee flexion angle and knee extension moment during single leg hops for distance were determined using a motion capture system and the dynamic ATT with its embedded method. The medial and lateral posterior tibia plateau angle were measured using MRI. Moreover, passive ATT was measured using the KT-1000 arthrometer.</jats:p>

<jats:title>Results</jats:title>
<jats:p>A weak negative correlation was found between the maximal dynamic ATT and the medial tibia plateau angle (<jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.028, r = − 0.36) and between the maximal knee flexion angle and the lateral tibia plateau angle (<jats:italic>p</jats:italic> = 0.025, r = − 0.37) during landing. Patients with a smaller lateral tibia plateau angle show larger maximal knee flexion angle during landing than the patients with larger lateral tibia plateau angle. Also, the lateral tibia plateau angle is associated the amount of with muscle activity.</jats:p>

<jats:title>Conclusion</jats:title>
<jats:p>The posterior medical tibia plateau angle is associated with dynamic ATT. The maximal knee flexion angle and muscle activity are associated with the posterior lateral tibia plateau angle.</jats:p>
