Introduction
PATHOLOGY, MUCOID DEGENERATION
The pathology of a mucoid degeneration of the anterior cruciate ligament (MDACL) has been mentioned in several publications but due to its rare incidence it is not a well-known pathology. Partial or complete resection of the ACL is the option of choice after failed non-surgical treatment. However, the success rate of both surgical techniques and the subsequent risk of an ACL instability is not known. The purpose of this study was to compare the clinical and radiological outcome between partial resection and complete resection of the ACL in patients with MDACL.
