Navigation system for ACL reconstruction
Part of Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests a special computer navigation system to help surgeons place the new ACL graft more precisely during knee reconstruction. If you have a torn ACL and are between 18 and 80, this study might help improve your surgery outcomes.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 80 years old.
- You have a torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in your knee.
- Your bones are fully grown (mature skeleton).
- You are willing to follow the study’s follow-up schedule and instructions.
- You do not have other serious health conditions that make surgery risky, such as severe diabetes, active infections, or a body mass index (BMI) over 35.

This study tests a new, lab-grown ligament made from biological tissue for ACL reconstruction. It may offer a regenerative option for people with a recent ACL tear who need surgery.
This trial compares two surgical techniques for ACL reconstruction. The standard method repairs the ACL inside the knee joint, while the new method also adds extra support outside the joint. The study aims to see which approach gives better stability and recovery for people with specific risk factors, like being a young athlete or having a chronic ACL tear.
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.
This trial studies a new way to reconstruct a torn ACL using your own bone marrow cells and a special internal brace to help you return to sports. It's for young athletes who haven't had ACL surgery before.
This study tests whether using robotic assistance during surgery improves outcomes for a specific type of knee fracture where the ligament attachment to the shin bone breaks off. Robotic guidance may help surgeons place repair more precisely.
This trial compares two techniques for ACL reconstruction—one uses an enriched, patient’s own bone during surgery and the other uses the standard approach. It may help researchers understand whether the enriched bone method improves knee healing and function.
