Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are a major problem in the pediatric and adolescent populations. Some of these injuries are only partial; yet, there is limited data to inform clinical treatment of such partial tears. It is unknown how injury partial injury impacts long-term degenerative changes in the joint relative to complete injury. In this study, we hypothesized that partial (anteromedial (AM) or posterolateral (PL) bundle) tears would result in small levels of instability and degeneration relative to complete ACL tears and that the degree of degeneration would associate with joint instability.
