Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This cohort study compares to groups of patients with reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). Patients in group 1 had ACL-reconstruction in the years 2001-2010 with a transphyseal drilling technique. Patient in group 2 had ACL-reconstruction in the years 2013-2018 with a physeal sparing technique.

Data including: x-ray exam, patient reported questionnaires and clinical evaluation will be compared between the 2 groups.
