Abstract

This study is retrospective analysis of 31 patients treated by arthroscopically assisted ACL reconstruction, from September 1995 to September 1996. ACL reconstructions using autogenous bone patellar tendon bone (B-PT-B) were done in 18 patients, and using hamstring tendon were done in 13 patients. We used four-stranded hamstring tendon grafts and fixed the grafts using Endobutton and screw. The mean postoperative Lysholm knee score was 87.2 points in B-PT-B. group, and 89.0 points in hamstring tendon group. There were no clinically significant results between two groups in Telos test, quadriceps atrophy, Lachman test, anterior drawer test and pivot shift test, but the incidences of anterior knee pain were lower in hamstring group. Four-stranded hamstring tendon graft showed enough stability and good functional outcome similar to that of patellar tendon graft, and had an advantage of quicker return of quadriceps function and less donor site morbidity.
