Study of knee ligament surgery outcomes using MRI details
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study looks at how a specific knee bone alignment issue seen on MRI relates to how well ACL surgery works afterward. It may help doctors better predict outcomes after ACL reconstruction.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a diagnosed ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) injury
- You have a pre-surgery knee MRI scan available at this hospital
- You are 18 years old or older
- Your ACL injury is only on one knee (not both knees)
- You do not also have a PCL (posterior cruciate ligament) injury
- You do not also have other ligament injuries on the sides of the knee

Other trials that look related to this one.
This trial studies ACL (knee ligament) injuries and how the tibia (shin bone) shifts, using MRI scans taken before surgery. It may help doctors better understand knee instability and improve how ACL injuries are evaluated and treated.
This trial tests a new MRI technique called Magic Angle Direction Imaging (MADI) to see if it can give better images of the knee before ligament repair surgery. It may help doctors plan your surgery more accurately.
This study compares two surgery techniques for ACL tears where the knee also twists too much inward. It aims to find which method leads to better long-term knee stability.
This study looks at whether doing physical therapy before surgery can improve tendon healing, bone density, and joint cushioning after ACL surgery or patellar dislocation surgery. It may help you recover better and faster by optimizing your knee before the operation.
This study follows people who have a knee ligament tear and undergo surgery to rebuild the ligament. It may help doctors better understand recovery and outcomes after different surgical techniques.
This study looks at how people do after one-time surgery to repair multiple knee ligaments using either donor tissue or their own tissue. It helps doctors better understand what to expect after multiligament knee reconstruction.
