    The current study aimed to evaluate postoperative knee stability in cases with high grade pivot shift test treated with ACL reconstruction with ALL reconstruction versus cases treated with ACL reconstruction only . This prospective comparative randomized study involved 40 patients with unilateral single ligamentous ACL injuries exhibiting advanced pivot shift test results. Patients were classified equally into two cohorts: Group I received solo ACL repair (ACLR), whereas Group II got ACL reconstruction with ALL reconstruction (ALLR) ALLR). The postoperative scores from the International Knee Documentation Committee, Cincinnati, Lysholm, and Tegner were considerably elevated in the ACLR + ALLR gro up compared to the ACLR group (p 0.05), with notable imp rovements seen in both groups (p <0.05). The negative post operative Lachman and Pivot shift tests were substantially greater in the ACLR + A LLR group than the ACLR group (p <0.05), and there was a high improvement pre and post operat i vely in the ACLR + ALLR group (p <0.05). The anterior drawer test demonstrated a substantial enhancement in both groups (P<0.05). Post operative effusion exhibited a wide variation between groups (p <0.05), and there was a notab le improvement in both groups (p <0.05). Post operative pain was considerably reduced in the ACLR + ALLR group compared to the ACLR group (p <0.05), with notable im provement seen in both groups (p <0.05). The single leg hop test showed considerab le improvement in both groups (p <0.05). Po stoperative patient satisfaction exhibited a statist ical variation between groups (p < Additional rotational stability is achieved through ACL + ALLR reconstruction, which enhances the likelihood of professional athletes returning to sports activities.

    Psychological aspects associated with ACL rehabilitation and recurrence in football players: a systematic review
    (Federación Española de Docentes de Educación Física, 2024-06-01) Ramos Pastrana, Luis Miguel; Giménez Egido, José María; Olmedilla Zafra, Aurelio; Personalidad, Evaluación y Tratamiento Psicológicos
    Although most football players recover good physical function after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) surgery, some do not return to their sport or to the same pre-injury level, and there is a risk of recurrence. Therefore, this study aimed to examine research on psychological aspects of ACL rehabilitation and Return to Play (RTP), as well as their influence on possible recurrence in football and futsal players. The search was conducted using the Scopus, PubMed, WoS, CENTRAL databases, and grey literature sources DART-Europe and OpenGrey. A total of nine studies met the inclusion criteria. The results indicated as the most evaluated psycho-logical factor the psychological readiness to RTP through the Anterior Cruciate Ligament Return to Sport After Injury (ACL-RSI). Likewise, psychological interventions in ACL-injured football players have positive effects on mood states, reduces pain perception, and fear reinjury, among others. Risk profiles for recurrence included vulnerability to stress and high psychological readiness to RTP. Therefore, psychological interventions should be incorporated into the rehabilitation process and screening to identify players at risk for poor outcomes or recurrences. Additional research would help to understand the influence of other variables or optimal levels of psychological readiness to RTP.
