Knee bend angle during ACL repair study
Part of Blood & lymphatic, Cancer, Immune system & allergy, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study compares two angles (0° vs 30°) of knee bend when fixing a graft during ACL and ALL surgery. It aims to see if the angle affects recovery and knee stability.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have a torn ACL in one knee, confirmed by exam and MRI.
- Your knee still feels unstable after trying non-surgical treatments.
- You can understand the study and agree to follow the rehab plan.
- You will attend all follow-up visits after surgery.
- You have not had ACL surgery on this knee before.
- Your other knee is healthy (no ACL injury).

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 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 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 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 compares two ways to rebuild a torn ACL using either a piece of your quadriceps tendon (with a small bone piece) or a piece of your patellar tendon (with bone). The goal is to find which graft works best for long-term stability and recovery.
This study looks at how the knee moves during surgery to fix a torn ACL. It may help doctors understand how to improve recovery after ACL and LAL reconstruction.
