Patients who underwent bilateral ACLR had a significantly greater PTS on radiography and a significantly greater LPTS on MRI compared with those who underwent unilateral ACLR. The rate of a radiographic PTS >12° was 2.4 times greater among patients undergoing bilateral ACLR compared with those undergoing unilateral ACLR. PTS measurements on radiography demonstrated a weak to negligible correlation with PTS measurements on MRI, suggesting that future normative PTS values should be reported specific to the imaging modality.
