Predictors of Revision Surgery After Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction

W. Michael Pullen, Brandon Bryant, Trevor R. Gaskill, Nicholas Sicignano et al.

Short summary

Revision surgery after ACL reconstruction occurred in 3.6% of 17,164 procedures, with active-duty military personnel showing higher rates (3.8%) than non-active-duty beneficiaries (1.8%). Perioperative NSAID or COX-2 inhibitor use increased revision odds, while age ≥35 and meniscal repair were protective.
