Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction in Patients Older Than 50 Years: A Descriptive Study With Minimum 10-Year Follow-up
In patients over the age of 50 years who underwent primary ACL reconstruction, there was a low long-term failure rate and a high level of patient satisfaction, despite osteoarthritic progression in 88.5% of cases. Concomitant meniscal procedures were associated with more severe osteoarthritic progression.
