Regarding these two problems, the front drawer test has a mobility of 6 mm, indicating that the anterior cruciate ligament was damaged, which should not have been completely broken at that time, so it still has some slack after being repaired for such a long time, but in magnetic vibration, it is difficult to distinguish the original damaged part because it has been filled with synovium or fibrous tissue.

The movement of 6mm can be considered without surgery, because if the mobility alone is used to judge whether surgery is needed, then the front drawer test should be above 2+, which means that the movement exceeding 10mm is a clear indication of the need for surgical reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament, and 6mm can be conservative, but if the joints are obviously uncomfortable at ordinary times, especially with meniscus injury, then surgical reconstruction, and more importantly, meniscus repair at the same time, is also a good choice, because

Another thing to note is that if you check the front drawer now, the test is conducted without anesthesia. If it is 6mm now, the test of the front drawer will obviously increase by more than 10mm if it is examined under anesthesia (EUA), which is the most accurate time.

Therefore, considering your cruciate ligament and meniscus, and your age, I prefer surgery to stabilize your joints, which should be the best policy.

I don't quite understand what you said, but the handling principle should be similar for your reference.

Goodbye.
