Risk factors for ACL revision failure and optimum graft size for revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction
A graft diameter < 9 mm and return to pivoting sports after revision ACLR are risk factors for graft re-rupture. Meniscus pathology and chondral lesion were not associated with graft re-rupture. The findings of this study can be used to improve revision ACLR results for patients, but needs to be expanded in multi-centre trials with larger sample sizes.
