Abstract

There was 100% agreement on the following: sex is not associated with differences in graft tear or contralateral native ACL tear at 2 and 6 postoperative years; female sex is associated with worse Marx activity scores at 2, 6, and 10 years; and female sex is associated with worse return-to-play percentages at 2 and 7 years. There was 60% agreement that female sex is associated with worse IKDC scores at 2 and 6 years.
