Sixty-four patients out of a much larger population who presented within 2 weeks of an acute injury to the knee were found at arthroscopy to have either a chronic tear or chronic incompetent anterior cruciate ligament (group I, 32 patients) or to have an acutely torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) (group II, 32 patients). Arthroscopy of both groups allowed the author to compare and contrast the lesions found in each group. Chondromalacia of the femorotibial joint is significantly more frequent in chronic ACL-deficient knees (p less than 0.05), and there is a tendency to degenerative meniscus lesions and chondromalacia patella in these knees too.
在大量膝关节急性损伤后2周内就诊的患者中，64例经关节镜检查发现，其中32例患者存在慢性撕裂或慢性前交叉韧带功能不全（I组），另外32例患者存在急性前交叉韧带（ACL）撕裂（II组）。对两组患者进行关节镜检查，使作者能够比较和对比每组中发现的损伤情况。在慢性ACL缺失的膝关节中，股胫关节软骨软化明显更为常见（p<0.05），并且这些膝关节也有半月板退变损伤和髌骨软骨软化的倾向。
