Impact of Meniscus Repair in Conjunction With Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction on Functional Outcomes at Six Months.

Background and aim Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries often occur along with menisci tears. ACL reconstruction with meniscectomy has long been the preferred technique for such injuries; however, it has been postulated to increase the chances of osteoarthritis (OA). Therefore, recent techniques have involved preserving menisci while reconstructing ACL to prevent OA and improve overall functional outcomes.
