Correlation of Isokinetic Testing and ACL Failure With the Short Graft Tape Suspension Technique at Six Months.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

The objective of this study was to correlate the data of the 6-month postoperative isokinetic muscle evaluation before resuming sports activities with the occurrence of ACL reconstruction rerupture after semitendinosus short graft.

Methods

From 2015 to 2018, all patients who were operated for an ACL reconstruction with a short semitendinosus autograft (TLS System) and who performed isokinetic tests on dynamometer at their 6th postoperative month were included in this study. The follow-up was prospective with the measurement of epidemiological, radiographic, and isokinetic parameters at 6 months of the ACL reconstruction. The cohort was divided into 2 groups: one group without an ACL reconstruction rerupture (Group 1) and the second group with a rerupture (Group 2).
