The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between obesity and postoperative stiffness following surgical management of multiligamentous knee injuries (MLKIs) using a large two-center cohort, by both 1) using binary cutoffs at various body mass indexes (BMIs) and 2) a linear regressio...

Zusammenfassung: | The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between obesity and postoperative stiffness following surgical management of multiligamentous knee injuries (MLKIs) using a large two-center cohort, by both 1) using binary cutoffs at various body mass indexes (BMIs) and 2) a linear regression model.
190 consecutive patients who underwent surgical management of MLKIs between January 2001 and March 2020 were reviewed at two level 1 academic trauma centers. Patient demographics, surgical characteristics, and manipulation under anesthesia (MUA)/lysis of adhesions (LOA) were reviewed. Patients were stratified by obesity grades: grade 1 (BMI 30 to |
