The study is intended to include all patients who will undergo surgical reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). The patients will be monitored and evaluated preoperatively and also at 6 months and 1 years after the intervention through a clinical visit. Such assessments will include the patient reported outcomes, the objective examination of the knee during a medical examination to quantify its stability and the radiological examination.

The literature presents a number of studies on the reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament, as well as numerous registers, but the identification of factors and parameters determining the outcomes remains largely debated. The study aims to analyze the potentially individual and operative parameters and identify the factors responsible for the clinical and radiological outcomes. In addition to collecting patient data in terms of features and clinical-radiological status, objective data will be documented and correlated.
