Bone–patellar tendon–bone autograft could be recommended as a superior graft to hamstring autograft for ACL reconstruction in patients with generalized joint laxity: 2- and 5-year follow-up study

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy Mar 11, 2018

Kim SJ, et al. - Authors herein compared 2- and 5-year outcomes of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction between patients with and without generalized joint laxity. They also compared two types of grafts used for ACL reconstruction in subjects having generalized joint laxity. Compared to patients without generalized joint laxity, less satisfactory stability and functional outcomes were noted in patients with generalized joint laxity. In cases having generalized joint laxity, comparisons of stability and functional outcomes following ACL reconstruction between two different grafts suggested that bone–patellar tendon–bone (BPTB) graft achieved better results than hamstring graft.
