Grants and Contracts Details
Description
Posttraumatic osteoarthritis is an acknowledged outcome of contact]related sports injuries but is an
underestimated and understudied problem occurring after non]contact rupture of the anterior cruciate
ligament (ACL). It is estimated that approximately 40]50% of young athletes are at significant risk for
developing progressive osteoarthritis (OA) 10]20 years after ACL injury suffered during high school
sports participation. Unfortunately, reliable predictors of which athletes are at highest risk for developing
OA after ACL injury do not exist.
