The epidemic of ankle fractures in the elderly--is surgical treatment warranted?

abstract：INTRODUCTION:ACL reconstruction with either patellar tendon or semitendinosus tendon autografts are standard procedures. Between these two grafts might be differences in stability, morbidity, or long-term changes. This study investigates outcomes of ACL reconstruction with patellar tendon versus semitendinosus tendon a...
