Internal Brace Ligament Augmentation versus Anatomical Repair with Hamstrings of the ACL – A Clinical Data Comparison Study

AIM: Investigation into the clinical results of internal brace ligament augmentation technique compared to simple anatomical repair anterior cruciate (ACL). METHODS: From May 2016 November 2019, 128 patients underwent an operation using technique. During same time, 104 were operated on ACL repair. The mean age was 22.5-year-old for first group and 26.8-year- old second one. minimum follow-up 24 months. All performed X-ray magnetic resonance imaging. Two hypotheses raised assess superiority versus one in early post-operative phase rehabilitation RESULTS: time 71 (65–75) min (IB) 62 (55–65) anatomical. We had two infected knees no infection stability test much better IB KT 1000. showed a superior return sport-time sportsmen 6 months 7–8 IB-operated found physiotherapy significantly easier than ones. CONCLUSIONS: IB-technique performs outcomes presence foreign body (Ultrabraid) inside knee may be risk factor contributing toward elevated rate. costs are more expensive but low compensate final result.
