Long-term results of arthroscopically assisted anatomical single-bundle anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using patellar tendon autograft: are there any predictors for the development of osteoarthritis?
Patients treated by the proposed ACL reconstruction technique showed on average good to excellent long-term results. A meniscal lesion at the time of ACL tear was highly predictive for less favourable outcome.
The presence of contralateral PTC appears to be unrelated to the size of the primary tumor. Furthermore, in patients with PTC<1 cm, multifocality is a risk factor for PTC in the contralateral lobe.
