Abstract

Background

Multi-ligament knee injury is a rare but severe injury. Treatment strategies are challenging for most orthopedic surgeons & optimal treatment remains controversial. The purpose of our study was to assess clinico-radiological and functional outcomes after surgical management of multi-ligament knee injuries & to determine factors that could predict outcome of surgery.

Materials And Method

It is a prospective observational study of 30 consecutive patients of Multi-ligament knee injury conducted between 2018–2020. All patients were treated surgically with single-stage reconstruction of all injured ligaments and followed standardized postoperative rehabilitation protocol. All patients were evaluated for Clinical (VAS score, laxity stress test, muscle-strength, range of motion), Radiological (stress radiographs) & Functional (Lysholm score) outcomes three times-preoperatively, post-operative 3 & 12 months.
