Official title: Effect of Informing the Patient on the Type of Management, Surgical or Functional, After Rupture of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament : INFO-LCA

The purpose of the study is to evaluate the proportion of patients after rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) of the knee, who will have functional or surgical management (PEC) in 1st intention, after having received appropriate information.

Read the detailed description

As part of this study, patients will be followed for 1 year with regular functional and quality of life assessments (45 days after inclusion, 3, 6, 9 and 12 months after the start of surgical or non-surgical management). Patients who, during follow-up, will have been redirected towards surgery by the doctor (in the event of functional instability) or who will have chosen to finally move towards surgical PEC, will also be followed.
