Abstract

Abstract Purpose The primary aim was to evaluate the functional impact of adding lateral extra‐articular tenodesis (LET) to an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction (ACLR). The secondary aim was to assess whether LET provides benefits in muscle strength, patient‐reported outcome measures (PROMs) and return to sport (RTS) pass rate, as well as to examine the influence of meniscal injury on performance in ACLR patients. Methods A retrospective cohort of prospectively collected data on all ACL procedures was performed at AZ Delta Roeselare between 2017 and 2019. The patients followed a
