Hamstring Muscle Strength After ACL Hamstring Reconstruction

NCT05464485 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 33

Last updated 2022-07-19

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) reconstructions using hamstring grafts can be performed using one or two hamstring grafts, the semitendinosus (ST) tendon only, or both the semitendinosus and gracilis (ST/G) tendon. As most patients strive to return to sport nine months after reconstruction the purpose of this study was to compare the recovery of hamstring muscle strength during these first nine months after reconstruction using the ST or ST/G tendons.

Conditions

  • Anterior Cruciate Ligament Rupture

Interventions

PROCEDURE

ACL hamstring reconstructions using semitendinosus (ST) tendon only

ACL reconstruction with a ST tendon graft received a reconstruction according to the Tape Locking Screw technique (FH Industrie, Quimper, France) with a dedicated interference screw

PROCEDURE

ACL hamstring reconstructions using semitendinosus and gracilis (ST/G) tendon

ACL reconstruction with a ST/G tendon graft received a reconstruction with the anteromedial portal technique with endobutton fixation (Smith \& Nephew, London, UK).
