Long-term follow-up of LARS artificial knee ligaments
This study checks how well LARS artificial ligaments work in the knee over the long term (9-12 years after surgery). It is not testing a new treatment; it is checking the results from surgery already done to understand safety and how well the ligament holds up.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You had knee ligament surgery with a LARS artificial ligament between 2015 and 2018.
- The surgery was for the anterior cruciate (ACL), posterior cruciate (PCL), or medial collateral (MCL) ligament in one knee only.
- You were at least 18 years old at the time of that surgery.
- Your medical records can show the details of the surgery and follow-up.
- You are not currently lost to follow-up or deceased (this is for researchers).
- You are able to give informed consent and are not in a vulnerable group (like under guardianship).

This is a study that follows adults who had an ACL tear treated with ACL reconstruction. It helps understand how the surgical device/material performs in real-world care.
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 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 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 tracks people who had surgery to reattach the medial collateral ligament (MCL) in the knee, alone or with other repairs. It measures how well and how safely they return to sports. If you had this surgery, you may help improve future care.
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.
