Summary

This study used MRI scans to look at how hamstring grafts used to repair the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) heal and change shape over time. Researchers examined 24 adults who had ACL surgery at least one year earlier. The goal was to understand how often the graft tunnels widen or the graft tissue transforms into a ligament-like structure.
