Delayed reconstruction is associated with higher rates of medial meniscus and chondral injury following ACL injury: A New Zealand ACL Registry Study

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Early reconstruction for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture may be controversial, with some clinicians opting for a trial of non‐operative management first. The impact of delayed surgery on outcomes is unclear, but it may be associated with an increase in secondary intra‐articular pathology involving the menisci and cartilage ...

Generalised joint hypermobility and excess knee hyperextension are associated with an increased risk for second ACL injury, but not primary ACL injury, in female football players: A 5‐year follow‐up

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose This study aimed to investigate the association between generalised joint hypermobility, knee hyperextension, knee laxity, and static standing alignment with the risk of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury in a cohort of female football players with an ACL‐reconstructed (ACLR) knee and in knee‐healthy controls.
