A recent study conducted by the Department of Orthopaedic and Trauma Surgery examined the use of autografts for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction in skeletally immature patients. Historically, ACL ruptures in children were managed conservatively, but this often resulted in reduced sports activities and secondary knee damage. The study compared the outcomes of bone-patellar tendon-bone (BPTB), hamstring tendon (HT), and quadriceps tendon (QT) autografts, and found that all three yielded good outcomes. However, further comparative studies are needed to determine the most suitable autograft for ACL reconstruction in skeletally immature patients. [Extracted from the article] |
