Popis: Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the long-term functional and MRI results of patients who underwent bicruciate ligament reconstruction combining an ACL autograft with gracilis and semitendinosus tendon and double-bundle PCL reconstruction using the LARS artificial ligament. Methods: The outcomes-measures used were the Lysholm score, the Tegner activity level scale and the International Knee Documentation Committee form (IKDC 2000). KT-1000 was used to assess the clinical knee laxity. Radiographs and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) were used to evaluate osteoarthritis, the continuity and integrity of ACL autograft and LARS. Results: This retrospective study examined 35 patients who underwent single-stage bicruciate ligament reconstruction between May 2005 and January 2017 with a follow-up period ranging from 3 years to 15 years (a mean of 7.5 years). The mean Lysholm score was 74, mean IKDC 2000 was 71. There was a statistically significant difference with a higher Lysholm score (78.9) in early versus delayed surgical intervention (p=0.023). Using the Kellgren Lawrence osteoarthritis classification system, radiographic findings showed stage II or III in 83% of sample population. The MRI results revealed a rupture rate of 22% of the anterior autografted ligament and 28% of the posterior LARS artificial ligament. However, there were no long-term artificial ligament-induced complications. There was no correlation between artificial ligament rupture and poor functional results (Lysholm
