Popis: | Introduction: Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) injury is one of the common ly injured ligaments around the knee with various clinical problems. With this study was conducted to find the postoperative outcome of arthroscopic ACL reconstruction with quadrupled semitendinosus tendon auto graft fixed in femoral tunnel. Materials and Methods: Study was conducted in the department of orthopaedics, GSL Medical College. ACL teared, mature, adult patients which was confirmed by Lachman test with concomitant meniscal injury that require repair were included in the study, p re operative management and diagnostic arthroscopy, post operative recovery was graded as per the International Knee documentation Knee score (IKDKS); P was considered statistically significant. Results: Total 25 patients were included, mean age was 29 years and one was female. With post operative KDC score, 68% scored normal, 24% near normal and 8% scored abnormal; statistically the difference was significant (P grade 1 results. Conclusion: With these study findings, we conclude that, with ACL reconstruction, there was good success rate; moreover the functional result was also high. However small sample size and short duration of the study are the limitations. Keywords: Knee, Ligament, Tendon. |
