About this study

Official title: Outcomes of Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction With and Without High Tibial Osteotomy in Knees With Varus Malalignment. Comparative Study

The purpose of this study is to compare the results of single-stage anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction combined with high tibial osteotomy and anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction alone in knees with varus malalignment and anterior cruciate ligament deficiency. Evaluation will be clinically, radiologically and time needed to return to pre injury activity level. Our Hypothesis: Simultaneous anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction and high tibial osteotomy provides good functional scores, low rate of graft failure and early return to pre injury activity level with minimal added morbidity.

Being tested

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Lysholm knee score

    knee score from 0 to 100 where a higher score means better outcome.

    Measured: 1 month post operative

  2. Lysholm knee score

    knee score from 0 to 100 where a higher score means better outcome.

    Measured: 3 month post operative

  3. Lysholm knee score

    knee score from 0 to 100 where a higher score means better outcome.

    Measured: 6 month post operative

  4. Tegner activity level

    activity level from 0 to 11 where 11 means highest level

    Measured: 1 month post operative

  5. Tegner activity level

    activity level from 0 to 11 where 11 means highest level

    Measured: 3 months post operative

  6. Tegner activity level

    activity level from 0 to 11 where 11 means highest level

    Measured: 6 months post operative

  7. Return to pre injury level

    time needed by the patient in months post operative to return to pre injury activity level

    Measured: through study completion, an average of 7 months

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. knee range of motion

    measure knee range of motion in degrees "flexion and extension"

    Measured: pre operative, 1 month, 3months, and 6 months post operative

  2. knee stability

    Lachman knee stability test

    Measured: pre operative, 1 month, 3months, and 6 months post operative

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing medial opening wedge high tibial osteotomy and anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction in people with ACL - Anterior Cruciate Ligament Deficiency and Varus Deformity of Tibia (Disorder), run by Mostafa Hassanein, Msc at 1 site in Egypt.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 6 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 8 Jul 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Egypt. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Lysholm knee score (time frame: 1 month post operative). The study lists 7 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 8 Jul 2024.
