Brief Summary

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

To assess the clinical outcome in patients who had ACL reconstruction with preservation of the remnant and compare it with patients in whom the stump was resected

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

100 patients are subjected to ACL reconstruction. Half of them had ACL reconstruction with Stump preservation and the other half had ACL reconstruction with stump resection.

The clinical outcome in both groups is assessed and compared
