ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
To determine whether there are patient-reported outcome differences in bone-patellar tendon-bone (BPTB), quadriceps tendon (QT), and hamstring (HS) grafts of comparable size.METHODS:
We performed a retrospective analysis of global registry data to include all patients who had an anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with BPTB, QT, or HS autograft of at least 9 mm in diameter between 2010 and 2021 with complete 1- and 2-year outcome scores. We compared 1- and 2-year postoperative outcome scores (visual analog scale [VAS], Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score [KOOS] pain, Marx Activity Rating Scale [MARS], Veterans RAND 12-Item Health Survey [VR-12]) between BPTB, QT, and HS of the same size graft.RESULTS:
In total, 2,318 subjects were included in the analysis, and all graft types showed improved patient-reported outcome measures at 1 and 2 years postoperatively when compared with baseline. The KOOS pain score for the BPTB group was significantly better than the HS (between-group difference = 2.71, P < .01) and QT (between-group difference = 2.51, P < .01) groups at 1 year, and the BPTB group was better than HS (between-group difference = 1.88, P < .01) at 2 years. However, the differences were small and not clinically meaningful. When we compared graft type, there were no differences in the percentage of patients who reached Minimal clinically important difference, or clinical scores VAS or MARS at 2-year follow-up.CONCLUSIONS:
There is no clinically meaningful difference in KOOS-pain, VR-12, VAS, and MARS at 1 and 2 years postoperatively in patients having anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with BPTB, HS, or QT if graft size is at least 9 mm in diameter. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level III, retrospective comparative study.
