Anatomical and biomechanical studies have shown that the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) consists of two distinct bundles, the anteromedial (AM) and posterolateral. Each bundle has its specific role during the motion of the knee. ACL reconstruction techniques have focused on the restauration of the anteroposterior stability by substituting the more isometric AM bundle. Although these ligamentoplasties provide overall good results, in the last ten years double-bundle ACL reconstruction techniques have been developed, to better replicate the ligament anatomy. Despite the growing number of published studies, including randomized controlled trials comparing single bundle and double bundle reconstructions, there is still a lack of evidence of any superiority of the double-bundle technique. Furthermore, many series are criticized for their poor assessement of rotational stability, using most of the time subjective pivot shift clinical testing. Among the methods available to measure tibial rotation, 3-D optoelectronic evaluation is an attractive tool and has been used in some studies reporting rotational mesurements after ACL single-bundle reconstruction. Our Department of Orthopaedics and Traumatology has been using double-bundle techniques for a few years. We conducted a preliminary prospective randomized study, in order to compare single and double-bundle techniques by clinical and optoelectronic evaluations. |
