Clinical trials

This study looks at two different types of tendon (tissue) used in knee surgery to repair a torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), which is a common injury in active people. The two types are taken from different muscles in the thigh: one from the front (quadriceps) and one from the back (semitendinosus). We will use information already collected in a national health registry to see how patients recover after surgery. The study will compare knee function, activity level, and how often patients need another operation.
