About this trial
Multiligamentar knee injury has consequences on knee function (instability, arthritis, life disagreement). Surgical reconstructions have known recent evolutions. The goal of this study is to evaluate functional and clinical results at one year of those new surgical technics. A clinical and functional follow up will be performed before the surgery, then at 6 months and one year.

Datas collected
Other interventionDatas collected by medical record: medical data (weight, height, smoking status, history) and socio-demographic data (age, occupation, type of injury) information, assessment of knee function before surgery, at 6 months and 1 year after surgery, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and radiological imaging at 1 year after surgery, results of the Iso-kinetic Muscle Assessment Test at 1 year after surgery to objectively determine the recovery of muscle function The data collected will be used to perform a statistical analysis to evaluate the factors predicting a good long-term post-surgical evolution
Treatment groups
Trial outcomes
Primary outcomes
Functional score : International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC)
The International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) is a questionnaire that assigns patients an overall functional score. Three categories are examined by the questionnaire: symptoms, sports activity and knee function, on a scale of 0 to 100.
Secondary outcomes
Functional score : Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS)
The Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) is used to assess immediate and long-term patient outcomes after knee injury. Five outcomes are assessed by the self-administered KOOS: pain, symptoms, activities of daily living, sport and recreation function, and knee-related quality of life, on a scale of 0 to 100.
Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) scale
Analysis of the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) scale (from 0 to 10, 10 = pain ++)
Laxity
Laxity assessed by Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI)
Joint amplitudes
Joint amplitudes assessed by the iso-cinetic test
