They were followed prospectively since the time of injury for a mean 9.5 years at final follow-up. Imaging included diagnostic MRI of the index knee and 3.0-T MRI of both knees at 1-, 2-, and 9.5-year follow-up, in addition to long-leg radiographs at final follow-up. Forty-three patients underwent active rehabilitation without ACL reconstruction initially; 4 were treated with initial ACL reconstruction. At final follow-up, 27 (57%) had undergone ACL reconstruction.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Fourteen patients had meniscal tears in the index knee at final follow-up (prevalence, 30%). The majority of these were in the same location as previously repaired tears (n = 9). Between diagnostic MRI and final follow-up, 16 patients had sustained new meniscal tears to a healthy meniscus (incidence, 34%). At final follow-up, meniscal injuries recorded at baseline or during follow-up were no longer visible and appeared healed in 17 patients (20 tears). MRI at final follow-up showed cartilage injuries in the index knee of 13 patients (28%) and contralateral injuries in 8 patients (meniscus, n = 2; cartilage, n = 5; subchondral fracture, n = 1). Two patients had a leg-length difference &gt;15 mm, and 3 had side-to-side difference in knee alignment &gt;5\u00b0.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The incidence of new meniscal tears after pediatric ACL injury was 34% during a mean follow-up period of 9.5 years. At final follow-up, 27 patients (57%) had normal menisci, and none had developed knee osteoarthritis. Primary active rehabilitation, close follow-up, and delayed surgery if needed may be a viable and safe treatment option for some pediatric ACL injuries.<\/jats:p>\n
