Phase 2/3

Not yet recruiting

Conditions: Sprain of cruciate ligament of knee,

Registration Number: CTRI/2024/01/060991

Lead Sponsor: Maulana Azad Medical College

Brief Summary: Anterior Cruciate Ligament(ACL) injury is very common problem of the knee especially in athletes and a disabling condition common etiology for knee instability and dysfunction. Although ACL reconstruction gives predictable and good results with various objective and subjective score but has a lot of problem like morbidity in the donor site ,failure of graft, mismatch between footprint and importantly lack of proprioception.Primary Arthroscopic Cruciate Ligament repair have the following advantages of being less invasive ,avoids graft site morbidity, retain native ACL anatomy , collagen orientation, retain of proprioceptive function.Also when Anterior Cruciate Ligament is primarily repaired there is minimal removal of bone and can be easily converted to a reconstruction if primary ACL repair happens to fail in future.
