High posterior tibial slope (PTS) has been recognised as a risk factor for anterior cruciate ligament rupture and graft failure. This prospective randomised study looked at intra-operative findings of concomitant intra-articular meniscal and chondral injuries during a planned ACL reconstruction. Prospective data was collected as part of a randomised trial for ACL reconstruction techniques. Intra-operative data was collected and these findings were compared with the PTS measured on plain radiograph by a single person twice through a standardised technique and intra-observer analysis was performed.Abstract
