Abstract

Purpose: The greatest risk factor for knee osteoarthritis (OA) in young and middle-aged people is previous traumatic injury, particularly to the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) or meniscus. There is little consensus regarding the optimal components of ACL and/or meniscal injury/surgery rehabilitation, particularly regarding the medium- to long-term prevention of symptomatic osteoarthritis. This reflects a lack of evidence (and/or poor quality evidence) underpinning current clinical practice guidelines, leading to substantial heterogeneity in rehabilitation protocols.
