September 30, 2025 updated by: Martin Lind, Aarhus University Hospital

Effect of Reconstruction of the Anterolateral Ligament (ALL) in Combination With Revision Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) Surgery. A Clinical Randomized Trial

Patients with combined Anterolateral ligament (ALL) reconstruction- Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) revision will have a better rotational knee stability and therefore better patient reported outcome measure (PROM) scores compared to patients, who have ACL revision surgery without ALL reconstruction.
