Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) injuries are an extremely common and costly injury in general and sporting populations.
Almost routinely, patients are offered surgery to return to high-level activity and pivoting sports, and for long-term superior knee joint health. This concept, as well as the dire view of a patient or athlete who has suffered an ACL tear has been widely propagated in mass media, and has affected populations both amateur and professional.
Current best research challenges these ingrained paradigms.
