Abstract:
[Objective]To study the feasibility and short-term effects of the arthroscopic reconstruction of ACL with LARS artificial ligaments and quadruple hamstring tendon autograft usirg anatomical isometric technique.[Method]Arthroscopic ACL reconstruction was carried out in 20 patients with ACL injuries by using the LARS artificial ligaments and quadruple hamstring tendon autograft.Bone tunnels of the femur and the tibia were prepared with ACL anatomical isometric technique.20 patients were divided into LARS artificial ligaments group(11 patients) and quadruple hamstring tendon group(9 patients).The artificial tendon group was inserted into the tunnels and fixed with two interface screws after being tightened.Quadruple hamstring tendon group was fixed with endobutton plate.[Result]The operation time were 30~80 min(mean,56 min) in LARS artificial ligaments group and 80~120 min(mean,100 min) in quadruple hamstring tendon group.No postoperative complications such as synovitis and ligament rupture and movement restriction occurred iF two groups.A follow-up check up was made in the 20 patients for 6~12 months(mean,9 months).The Lysholm scores improved from a preoperative score of 22~65(36.72~15.54) to 80~98(90.45~4.68) at follow-up(t=10.535,P
