The side to side differences (injured side minus the normal side) of anterior-posterior knee laxity are shown as mean ± standard deviation in mm (95% confidence interval). A positive value indicates an increase of knee laxity for the reconstructed knee in comparison to the normal knee. P values indicate comparison of factor ˝time˝ within the groups.
