Frontal plane gait mechanics are known risk factors for knee osteoarthritis (OA) but their role in early cartilage degeneration following ACL reconstruction (ACL-R) is not well understood. The objective was to evaluate the association of frontal plane gait mechanics with medial knee cartilage magnetic resonance (MR) relaxation times over 1-year in ACL-R subjects and controls. We hypothesized that (1) there will be an increase in frontal plane medial knee loading and medial knee MR relaxation times over time in the ACL-R subjects, and (2) increases in frontal plane medial knee loading will be associated with an increase in medial knee MR relaxation times. Cohort study Subjects with ACL-R (n=37) underwent walking gait analyses and bilateral quantitative MRI before surgery (BL) and at 6-month (6M) and 12-month (12M) after ACL-R. Healthy control subjects (n=13) were evaluated at BL and 12M. Gait variables included, peak knee adduction moment (KAM), knee KAM impulse, and peak knee adduction angle. MRI variables included medial femur (MF) and medial tibia (MT) whole-compartment and sub-regional T1ρ and T2 relaxation times. Statistical analyses included a comparison of changes over-time for gait and MRI variables, correlations between changes in gait and MRI variables over-time, and differences in change in MRI variables in subjects who showed an increase vs. decrease in KAM impulse. There were significant increases in medial T1ρ (Δ 4–11%) and T2 (Δ 2–10%) from BL to 6M for both knees in ACL-R group, and in KAM (Δ 13%) for the injured knee. From BL to 6M, subjects who had an increase in KAM impulse in the injured knee had a greater increase in medial T1ρ and T2 compared to those who did not have an increase in KAM impulse. Longitudinal changes for the control group were not significant. There is an increase in medial knee relaxation times over first 6-months after ACL-R. People with increase in medial knee loading show an increase in medial knee relaxation times compared to those who do not have an increase in medial knee loading over the first 6 months. Strategies to reduce frontal plane loading over the first 6-months following ACL-R may be investigated to slow early cartilage degeneration.
