Patients actively participating in sports at their first orthopaedic visit who completed the ACL-RSI during postoperative rehabilitation were included. Patient demographics, injury characteristics, surgical procedure, ACL-RSI scores, and RTS status were recorded. Descriptive statistics and bivariate analysis were performed. Based on the euclidean distance, the optimal ACL-RSI cutoff score for predicting successful RTS was determined, and diagnostic accuracy was evaluated with a receiver operating curve. A multivariate logistic regression, adjusted for sex, was used to identify predictors of RTS.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Study criteria identified 97 patients with a median (IQR) age of 15.6 years (14.2-16.4). Seventy underwent isolated MPFLR and 27 underwent MPFLR with tibial tubercle osteotomy. Successful RTS was achieved in 78.3% (n = 76). RTS was associated with higher ACL-RSI scores (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      = .012), isolated MPFLR (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      = .011), and male sex (\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      = .03). An ACL-RSI score \u226559.2 was identified as being indicative of successful RTS (area under the curve, 0.70; 95% CI, 0.56-0.83). While procedure type and ACL-RSI scores were both associated with RTS in univariate analysis, the multivariable analysis adjusting for sex revealed that the ACL-RSI cutoff remained the only significant predictor of RTS (odds ratio, 3.56; 95% CI, 1.10-11.51;\n                      <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">P<\/jats:italic>\n                      = .033).\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>ACL-RSI scores \u226559.2 are associated with an increased likelihood of successful RTS after surgical treatment for PFI in adolescents.
