Clinical Trial Summary

Most athletes who undergo Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction (ACLR) plan to return to some level of sporting (RTS) activity. However, rates of return to pre-injury sport are often less than might be expected and many factors influence whether individuals return to sport after this surgery. This study aims to better understand the role of meniscal lesions in RTS and to assess the advantage of the integrated evaluation with clinical, biomechanical and psychological tests to decide the correct RTS timing in non-professional athletes undergoing ACLR.


Clinical Trial Description

Twenty non-professional athletes with acute ACL injury were recruited in the Orthopaedic and Trauma Unit of University Hospital of Bari. All the patients underwent an all-inside semitendinosus (ST) tendon autograft ACLR with Arthrex TightRope cortical fixation. The clinical outcomes (modified Cincinnati Rating System Questionnaire (mCRSQ), Tegner Activity Level Score (TALS), Tegner Lysholm Knee Scoring Scale (TLKSS)), the self-reported psychological scores (Tampa Scale of Kinesiophobia (TSK) and the ACL Return to Sport after Injury (ACL-RSI) score) and biomechanical outcomes (stability, jump, coordination and fatigue tests) were assessed postoperatively at 18 months. ;
