ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
Evaluation of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction using autogenous hamstring tendon composite grafts and the modified one incision technique for the revisional ACL reconstruction. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
Eight cases that had undertaken revisional ACL reconstruction were evaluated. Follow-up period was 17.5 months on the average (12-41) . All cases were evaluated using the Lysholm knee score, KT-2000 arthrometer (Medmetrics) and one leg hop test.RESULTS:
Lysholm knee score increased from 67.8 to 80.6 by an average of 13 points. When comparing with normal side, the average differences of anterior translation was 2 mm and the average functional activity was 77.1% of the healthy side. All cases returned to the normal activities of daily living.CONCLUSION:
New femoral and tibial tunnel can be made regardless of pre-existing tunnels with modified one incision technique and hamstring tendon composite graft. Allogeneous bone grafts were used to fill the enlarged tunnels caused by overlapping with pre-constructed tunnels.
