Reconstructing the anterolateral ligament does not decrease rotational knee laxity in ACL-reconstructed knees

Purpose Little is known about the anterolateral ligament’s (ALL) influence on knee laxity. The purpose of this study was to investigate rotational knee laxity against a pure axial rotational stress using radiostereometric analysis (RSA) after cutting and reconstructing both the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and the ALL.
