Abstract
Eight adolescents were followed 3–8 years after primary suture of a substance rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament. Only 3 patients had good function, and 5 were unstable. We conclude that the Palmer-Marshall technique should not be used in children and adolescents.This publication has 17 references indexed in Scilit:
