Untreated Injuries to the Anterolateral Capsular Structures Do Not Affect Outcomes and Kinematics after Anatomic Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.

The findings of this study demonstrate that MRI evidence of an ALC injury does not significantly affect in vivo knee kinematics and PROs even in individuals with a high-grade ALC injury. Injuries to the ALC as observed on MRI might not be a useful indication for an anterolateral procedure.
