Anatomic reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament of the knee with or without reconstruction of the anterolateral ligament: A meta-analysis.

CONCLUSIONS: Anatomic reconstruction of the ACL of the knee with reconstruction of the ALL indicates better postoperative knee function and clinical outcomes compared with isolated ACL reconstruction. The infection rate and other complications rate showed no significant difference between two groups. PMID: 33410381 [PubMed - in process]
