IMPACT OF PATIENT FACTORS ON OUTCOMES OF ACL RECONSTRUCTION…
185
CONCLUSIONS
Patient factors are important predictors of ACL
graft tear risk and patient-reported outcomes
6 years following ACL reconstruction. The
strongest patient factors related to graft failure
risk and age and activity level. Smoking status
and body mass index, along with meniscus
status are strong predictors of patient-reported
outcomes.
