Ligament injuries of the knee in children and adolescents are increasingly frequent. 

Although traditionally, no action was taken until the end of growth to carry out ligament repair,

the trend today is to do surgery in the weeks following the injury since, in the past, the patient at

the time of surgery had numerous associated injuries due to the delay and also because the patient 

couldn't practice sports after the injury . The technique has since been modified, allowing, during

the intervention, to have radiographic control in the areas where bones grow (physis) in order to 

avoid injuries during surgery.
