Arthroscopic reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament with hamstring tendons and mini-plates / 中国矫形外科杂志

ABSTRACT

[Objective]To study the effect of arthroscopic reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament with hamstring tendons and mini-plates.[Method]Thirteen cases of anterior cruciate ligament ruptures were reconstructed arthroscopically with over six strands of hamstring tendons in way of one-bundle and two-tunnel reconstruction.The grafts were fixed with suspension technique by mini-plates.The patients were followed up for one year.The clinical results were evaluated according to Lysholm rating scale.[Result]Twelve patients(92.31%) had negative Lachman test,and one patient showed positive Lachman test.Pivot shift test was negative in 12 cases,and was positive in one case.The Lysholm score increases from 47.77?1.96 to 95.38?4.74(P
