No Difference in Complication Rates or Patient-Reported Outcomes Between Bone-Patella Tendon-Bone and Quadriceps Tendon Autograft for Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To compare subjective outcomes and complications of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) using either bone-patellar tendon-bone (BPTB) or quadriceps tendon (QT) autograft.

Methods

A retrospective analysis of prospectively collected data identified consecutive cohorts of patients undergoing ACLR with either BPTB or QT autograft. Patients with less than 12-month follow-up and those undergoing concomitant osteotomies, cartilage restoration, and/or other ligament reconstruction procedures were excluded. Pre- and postsurgical patient-reported outcomes including International Knee Documentation Committee, Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score, Patient-Reported Outcomes Measurement Information System (PROMIS), Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation, Tegner,
