Lateral extra-articular tenodesis protects high-risk patients from the risk of re-rupture and improves patient-reported outcomes after primary anterior cruciate ligament repair: A retrospective cohort study with ≥2-year follow up
The addition of a lateral extra-articular procedure to primary ACL repair in patients at a higher risk of re-rupture results in failure rates comparable to those of lower-risk, less active individuals and enhances functional recovery and activity levels.
