Abstract

The purpose of this study was to compare the postoperative success and stability of two different autografts used to reconstruct the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL): doubled semitendinosus/gracilis (DST&G) and bone-patellar tendon-bone (PAT). Ninety-one young (x = 25.4 years), active patients were available for an average follow-up of 36.4 months and included 55 patients in the PAT group and 36 in the DST&G group. No patients had previously undergone ACL reconstruction. Knee stability data were obtained yearly and included scores from the Lysholm questionnaire, Lachman exam, and KT-1000 arthrometer at 30 pounds (KT30) and maximum pull (KTMAX). Both autografts were of comparable size, tension, and isometricity. Two separate factorial multivariate analyses of variance (MANOVA) were used to compare the two series for 3 follow-up years in the categories acute and chronic (A versus C) and meniscectomy and no meniscectomy (M versus NM). Results indicated that in all categories and follow-up years, PAT patients had consistently greater knee stability compared with the DST&G group. Overall MANOVA results showed significantly lower (p < 0.01) Lachman scores in PAT versus DST&G in each of the 3 follow-up years. Significantly lower (p < ...Continue Reading

Allogenic & Autologous Therapies

Allogenic therapies are generated in large batches from unrelated donor tissues such as bone marrow. In contrast, autologous therapies are manufactures as a single lot from the patient being treated. Here is the latest research on allogenic and autologous therapies.

Aphasia

Aphasia affects the ability to process language, including formulation and comprehension of language and speech, as well as the ability to read or write. Here is the latest research on aphasia.
