We studied the short-term results of the anterior cruciate ligament with a Dacron Ligament prosthesis in 7 cases. Our series consisted of three males and four females ranging in age from 17 to 40 years old with an average of 32.3 years old. Follow-up ranged from 3.5 to 12.5 months (average, 9 months). All had chronic anterior cruciate ligament deficient knees. The reconstruction led to complete improvement of giving way phenomenon. Although subjectively all of the patients considered the results satisfactory, objectively we recognized a case of a rupture of intra-articular ligaments and a case whose laxity was gradually increasing. From this study, the short-term results of the anterior cruciate ligament with a Dacron ligament prosthesis did not give us enough satisfaction.
