ACL Repair is a valid alternative to ACL Reconstruction in appropriately chosen patients

Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine | 2025 | Ross Radic

Objective: In appropriately selected patients, primary repair of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) has demonstrated an alternative to ACL reconstruction, potentially permitting an accelerated early functional recovery and avoiding the graft site morbidity associated with an autograft harvest. This study sought to investigate clinical outcomes, RTS and re-injury rates in pati...

Over the Top ACL Reconstruction Technique Combined with Anterolateral Ligament Reconstruction for An Unstable Chronic ACL Rupture: A Case Report

Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine | 2025 | Ludwig Andribert Powantia Pontoh, Ichsan Dana Patih

Introduction: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture is a common injury, particularly among athletes involved in high-impact sports. It often results from sudden changes in direction, causing instability, pain, and functional limitations. Arthroscopic ACL reconstruction is now the gold standard for treatment of ACL injury, many techniques has been introduced with excellent re...

Comparison of Contralateral ACL Rupture Versus ACL Graft Rupture in Australian Netballers After ACL Reconstruction

Orthopaedic Journal of Sports Medicine | 2024 | Conor Honeywill, Lucy Salmon, Leo Pinczewski, Keran Sundaraj

Background: Netball is a popular sport worldwide, particularly for women. However, its nature puts players at high risk for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. Purpose: To determine (1) the prevalence of ACL graft rupture and contralateral ACL (CACL) rupture in Australian female netballers after ACL reconstruction (ACLR) and (2) the rate of return to sports (RTS) and psych...
