New knee surgery aims for faster comeback than standard fix
NCT ID NCT02310854
Summary
This study is testing if a new surgical technique to stitch a torn ACL back together works as well as or better than the standard surgery, which replaces the ligament with a tendon from the patient's own leg. It involves 48 young, active adults who recently tore their ACL. The main goal is to see which method helps people return to daily and sports activities better one year after surgery.
