High Rates of Osteoarthritis Develop After Anterior Cruciate Ligament Surgery: An Analysis of 4108 Patients

Abstract: The prevalence of osteoarthritis after an ACL reconstruction significantly increased with time. Longer chronicity of ACL tear and older age at the time of surgery were significantly positively correlated with the development of osteoarthritis. A timely referral and treatment of symptomatic patients are vital to diminish the occurrence of PTOA.

“…Osteoarthritis (OA) is a disease of the whole joint, affecting the functional unit of articular cartilage, subchondral bone, and synovium . Post‐traumatic OA (PTOA), OA that occurs after a joint injury such as an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear, has an incidence of over 50% at 20 years after ACL tear and reconstruction . While biomechanical stress on the joint is well accepted as an etiologic factor in the development of PTOA, the cell signaling and biochemical factors involved in its pathogenesis are less appreciated.…”

The initial inflammatory response after injury, generally thought to be important for healing in the body, 6 may also be harmful to the long-term health of articular cartilage and subchondral bone.…”

“…8 Additionally, ACL tears are frequently associated with meniscal injury which has been previously demonstrated to increase the risk of developing PTOA from 16.4 to 50.4%, with joint space narrowing noted as early as 2 years despite meniscal repair. 9,10 Although it has been estimated that 12% of cases of symptomatic OA are secondary to traumatic joint injury, this may underestimate that rate at which PTOA occurs in the military population. 11 As demonstrated by high rates of ACL tears, as well as other intra-articular pathologies and periarticular fractures, military service members experience acute traumatic joint injuries at a much greater rate than their civilian counterparts.…”

“…Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury has received a lot of attention due to its potentially severe consequences regarding return-to-sport rates, re-injuries and osteoarthritis development 6,16,73,126 , even though it only represents about 5% of all time-loss injuries in football regardless of sex or playing level 175 . When comparing different sports, the ACL incidence rates were highest in football among girls 51,159 and in lacrosse and American football in boys 51,159 .…”
