Abstract:
Objective To compare clinical outcomes of double-bundle and single-bundle in individualized arthroscopic anatomical reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) . Methods The clinical data of 117 patients were reviewed who had received double-bundle or single-bundle arthroscopic ACL reconstruction from March 2007 through September 2009 in our hospital and had undergone complete follow-up. Of them, 35 cases had single-bundle ACL reconstruction and 82 double-bundle reconstruction. In the single-bundle group(group A), there were 31 men and 4 women, aged 28. 6 ±5. 1 years. In the double-bundle group(group B), there were 73 men and 9 women, aged 27. 6 ±5. 4 years. The 2 groups were comparable in the preoperative demographic data ( P > 0. 05). To evaluate the outcomes, Lachman and Pivot Shift exams , KT-2000, Lysholm and IKDC (International Knee Documentation Committee) scores, were adopted. Results The 117 patients received a mean follow-up of 15 months (from 11 to 25 months). The Lachman test showed 88. 6% (31/35) were normal in group A and 95. 1% (78/82) were normal in group B.The pivot-shift test showed 88. 6%(31/35) were normal in group A and 96. 3% (79/82) were normal in group B. Group A had a mean Lysholm score of 93. 4 ± 8. 2 and group B a mean Lysholm score of 93. 7 ±7. 0. There were no significant differences between the 2 groups in the above indexes ( P > 0. 05). By IKDC score, 71. 4% (25/135) were normal in group A and 93. 9% (77/82) were normal in group B. The KT-2000 test showed a mean of 1. 4 ± 0. 6 mm in group A and a mean of 1. 1 ± 0. 5 mm in group B. These 2 values were significantly different between the 2 groups ( P < 0. 05). Conclusions The individualized arthroscopic double-bundle anatomical reconstruction of ACL can maximally restore the anteroposterior and rotational stability. Arrangement of the ACL insertion site on the femoral and tibial side, three-portal technique and ruler application are keys for individualized anatomical double-bundle ACL reconstruction.
