What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture is a common and clinically significant injury, particularly among young, active, and athletic adults, and may lead to knee instability and functional impairment. The resulting instability can limit activities of daily living and reduce sports performance, often increasing the need for surgical treatment in physically active individuals. Therefore, ACL reconstruction is widely accepted as an effective treatment option in appropriately selected patients. In the assessment of patients undergoing ACL reconstruction, not only postoperative clinical success but also the degree of preoperative instability may be important. Determining the effect of preoperative instability severity and side-to-side difference on postoperative functional outcomes, clinical recovery, radiological findings, return to daily activities, and return to sports may provide a mor
