Résumé
The relationship between anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury and anatomical structures is still a topic of debate. The aim of this study was to compare knee geometry in demographically matched ACL-injured and ACL-intact athletes. We conducted a case-control study comparing 2 groups, each consisting of 55 professional athletes (44 men and 11 women): 1 group with complete ACL tears (cases) and 1 group with intact ACLs (controls). The groups were compared using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in terms of intercondylar notch geometry, tibial plateau characteristics, and ACL volume. Among cases and controls, we found the cases had lower notch width (20.24 ± 2.68 mm vs. 22.04 ± 2.56 mm, respectively) and notch width index (0.29 ± 0.03 vs. 0.31 ± 0.03, respectively). The mean ACL volume in the cases (1181.63 mm Our findings suggest that narrow notch width and low ACL volume may enhance the risk of ACL injury among athletes. There was no association found between posterior tibial slope and ACL injury between athletes with injured ACLs and controls. Further study is indicated.

Background
UNASSIGNED
The relationship between anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury and anatomical structures is still a topic of debate.
Purpose
UNASSIGNED
The aim of this study was to compare knee geometry in demographically matched ACL-injured and ACL-intact athletes.
Methods
UNASSIGNED
We conducted a case-control study comparing 2 groups, each consisting of 55 professional athletes (44 men and 11 women): 1 group with complete ACL tears (cases) and 1 group with intact ACLs (controls). The groups were compared using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in terms of intercondylar notch geometry, tibial plateau characteristics, and ACL volume.
Results
UNASSIGNED
Among cases and controls, we found the cases had lower notch width (20.24 ± 2.68 mm vs. 22.04 ± 2.56 mm, respectively) and notch width index (0.29 ± 0.03 vs. 0.31 ± 0.03, respectively). The mean ACL volume in the cases (1181.63 mm
Conclusion
UNASSIGNED
Our findings suggest that narrow notch width and low ACL volume may enhance the risk of ACL injury among athletes. There was no association found between posterior tibial slope and ACL injury between athletes with injured ACLs and controls. Further study is indicated.
