Cox regression analysis for the risk of anterior cruciate ligament revision for medial collateral ligament injury
| Groups compared | Hazard ratio unadjusted | p value | Hazard ratio adjusted* | p value adjusted* |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Isolated ACL vs concomitant MCL (any treatment) | 0.76 (0.53–1.07) | n.s | 0.68 (0.47–0.98) | 0.036 |
| Isolated ACL vs ACL + non-surgically treated MCL | 0.69 (0.48–0.99) | 0.045 | 0.61 (0.41–0.89) | 0.0097 |
| Isolated ACL vs ACL + MCL suture repair | 0.77 (0.19–3.09) | n.s | 1.08 (0.15–7.67) | n.s |
| Isolated ACL vs ACL + MCL reconstruction | 2.79 (0.39–19.82) | n.s | 2.22 (0.31–15.82) | n.s |
ACL anterior cruciate ligament, MCL medial collateral ligament, n.s non-significant
*Adjusted for age, patient sex, graft diameter, concomitant cartilage injury and femoral fixation method
