Registration Number
NCT05461625

Brief Summary

This study will compare Anterior Cruciate Reconstruction with or without Anterolateral Ligament Reconstruction in patients with ACL injury. The purpose of this study is evaluate if addition of ALLr to ACLr provides better clinical, radiological and laboratory outcomes.

Detailed Description

This study compare ACL reconstruction and additional tenodesis or ALL recontruction described by Arnold. Patients will be randomized fot this tree group and surgeon will be blinded.

Anterolateral ligament reconstruction could play a role in augmenting rotational stability in the ACL-reconstructed knee and are most likely to benefit hyperlax patients, revision cases, pivoting athletes, and those with IKDC grade III pivot shifts. In our study we will would like to confirm this hypothesis.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Knee stability24 months

KT-1000 assesment for knee stability

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
IKDC (International Knee Documentation Committee) subjective knee evaluation24 months

IKDC is subjective scale that provides patients with an overall function score. Total to a scaled number ranges from 0 to 100. highr number representing higher levels of function.

Functional tests12 months

hop-for-distance

VAS (Visual analog scale)24 months

Pain Visual Analog Scale

The pain VAS is a unidimensional measure of pain intensity. The most simple VAS is a straight horizontal line of fixed length, usually 100 mm. The ends are defined as the extreme limits of the parameter to be measured (symptom, pain, health)\[8\] orientated from the left (worst) to the right (best).

KOOS (Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score)24 months

Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score; KOOS is intended to be used for knee injury that can result in post traumatic osteoarthritis (OA); KOOS has high test-retest reliability. In patients with knee injury, ICCs for the Pain subscale range from 0.85-0.93, the Symptoms subscale from 0.83-0.95, the ADL subscale from 0.75-0.91, the Sport/Rec subscale from 0.61-0.89 and the QOL subscale from 0.83-0.95. In patients with knee OA, ICCs for the Pain subscale range from 0.8-0.97, the Symptoms subscale from 0.74-0.94, the ADL subscale from 0.84-0.94, the Sport/Rec subscale from 0.65-0.92 and the QOL subscale from 0.6-0.91 (4).

Tegner Lysholm Knee Scoring Scale24 months

The Lysholm Knee Scoring Scale is a patient-reported instrument that consists of subscales for pain, instability, locking, swelling, limp, stair climbing, squatting, and the need for support. Scores range from 0 (worse disability) to 100 (less disability).

KOOS PF (Knee injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score Patellofemoral)24 months

the 'Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score Patellofemoral' questionnaire (KOOS-PF) is frequently used to measure symptoms and function among the people with PFJ-OA. This scale is scored from 0 to 100, with 100 representing no disability and 0 representing maximum disability
