Between 1974 and 1978 at the "Berufsgenossenschaftliche Unfallklinik" Frankfurt/Main 124 patients with lesions to the knee ligaments were treated; 117 patients could be followed up. All cases were classified according to the accident, the impact and the mechanism of the injury. The case-reports were supplemented by a graduation of the rotation stability and a general description of the own surgical technic and the postoperative care. For evaluation the surgically treated cases were divided according to the time they received treatment (immediately, early or late). All three groups were evaluated separately using the same objective and subjective criteria. It was found that the functional late results depended on the time of the first treatment. The findings led to the conclusion that injuries to the ligaments of the knee joint should be treated immediately by surgery.
1974年至1978年间，在美因河畔法兰克福的“职业事故保险联合会创伤诊所”，对124例膝关节韧带损伤患者进行了治疗；其中117例患者得到了随访。所有病例均根据事故、撞击和损伤机制进行分类。病例报告还补充了旋转稳定性分级以及对自身手术技术和术后护理的总体描述。为了进行评估，接受手术治疗的病例根据治疗时间（立即、早期或晚期）进行分组。所有三组均使用相同的客观和主观标准分别进行评估。结果发现，功能晚期结果取决于首次治疗的时间。这些发现得出的结论是，膝关节韧带损伤应立即进行手术治疗。
