This study investigated radiographic changes in medial PTS over time among skeletally mature individuals undergoing revision ACL\u2010R and identified associated factors contributing to PTS changes.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A 10\u2010year chart review of patients who underwent revision ACL\u2010R was performed. Inclusion criteria included having index knee radiographs spanning at least 5 years, with the first radiograph taken before primary ACL\u2010R, and age &gt;14 years. Exclusion criteria included inadequate radiographs, multi\u2010ligament injuries and concomitant meniscus transplantation. Radiographic analysis involved determining the reliability of measuring PTS by two blinded raters across three time points using 25 selected radiographs, employing the standard error of measurement to ascertain the minimum detectable change (MDC), which was 1.0\u00b0 (95% confidence interval). Changes in PTS were categorized into two groups based on the threshold of &gt;2\u00b0 (Group 1) and \u22642\u00b0 (Group 2), to eliminate measurement errors. Two blinded researchers collected demographic data, clinical and operative histories and return\u2010to\u2010sports status.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Seventy\u2010six patients were included, with a mean age of 25.3\u2009\u00b1\u200910.3 years at the time of primary ACL\u2010R and an average radiographic follow\u2010up of 8.9\u2009\u00b1\u20093.6 years after the initial preoperative radiograph. Interobserver and intraobserver reliabilities indicated high consistency (Intraclass correlation [ICC]\u2009=\u20090.92 and 0.97\u20130.99, respectively). There was a statistically significant increase in PTS from initially measured to most recent radiographs, averaging an increase of 1.1\u2009\u00b1\u20091.5\u00b0 (\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u20090.001), surpassing the MDC.

A significant association was observed between having a PTS\u2009\u2265\u200912\u00b0 on the latest radiograph and a greater change in PTS over time (\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009&lt;\u20090.001).\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Radiographic evaluations demonstrated a consistent increase in PTS over an average of 9 years among patients undergoing revision ACL\u2010R.
