5-Year Check-In After ACL Repair
Part of Bones, joints & muscles, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study checks on people who had ACL (anterior cruciate ligament) repair surgery 5 years ago to see how well their knee is doing. It looks at a specific type of ACL tear (a 'proximal' tear) and helps doctors understand long-term results.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 or older.
- You have not had any other knee surgery before this injury (except possibly surgery for a meniscus tear).
- You have a specific type of ACL tear called a 'proximal' tear (Sherman type 1 or 2), either by itself or with some other minor knee injuries (like a meniscus tear or a grade 1 or 2 MCL/LCL sprain).
- You had your ACL repair surgery within 3 months of the injury.
- Your surgery happened between January 2019 and July 2021.

This study compares two ways to treat a tear of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) near the top of the knee. It looks at whether having surgery is better than a non-surgical approach with physical therapy. You may be eligible if your tear is recent and you have no other knee injuries.
This study is looking at how well the ACL heals after surgery in the long term. It helps researchers understand recovery patterns, so you may get a closer look at your knee's healing process.
This study is checking how people are doing after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction (a surgery to repair a knee ligament). It may help researchers understand recovery and long-term outcomes after ACL surgery.
This study uses CT scans to check how well ACL reconstruction surgery is working in patients who had the surgery within the last 5 years. It may help doctors understand how to improve recovery.
This study compares how well people recover after two different types of ACL surgery: reconstruction (using a graft) and primary repair (stitching the torn ligament). It will help doctors understand which approach leads to better knee function long-term. Participants must be between 18 and 40, had their ACL surgery at Gazi University, and be at least one year past surgery.
This study follows people who have had or will have ACL reconstruction surgery at this hospital. It helps doctors learn more about how patients recover after ACL surgery over the long term.
