Tendon allograft replacement of ACL deficient knees (A five year follow-up)

Abstract

Because of the high complication rate of synthetic grafts for ACL reconstruction, the authors have been using deep frozen tendon allografts since November 1988. 30 patients underwent ACL reconstruction between November 1988 and April 1990. 24 were evaluated with the Lysholm score and 17 were also examined using the cruciate Iigament standard evaluation form. In most cases tibialis anterior and flexor hallucis longus tendons are used. According to our study functional stability after approximately 5 years averaged 88. 1 as measured by Lysholm score. We conclude that the medium term results of tendon allograft replacement in the ACL deficient knee are satisfactory.
