Anterior\u2013posterior radiographs of the tibiofemoral joint were obtained with a knee flexion of 20\u00b0, and the patellofemoral joint was examined with skyline view at 50\u00b0 knee flexion. Joint space narrowing and osteophytes were graded in the tibiofemoral and patellofemoral joints in the injured (ACL) and uninjured knee according to the radiographic atlas of the Osteoarthritis Research Society International. The alignment of the uninjured, contralateral knee was measured at follow\u2010up, using full\u2010limb radiographs of leg with the knee in full extension. Alignment was expressed as the hip\u2010knee\u2010ankle (HKA) angle. Alignment was defined as valgus (HKA \u2264178\u00b0), neutral (179\u00b0\u2013181\u00b0) or varus (\u2265182\u00b0).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Results<\/jats:title><jats:p>Data from 68 subjects were included in the analysis.
