Regression modelling combining MRI measurements and patient anthropometry for patient screening and prediction of graft diameter in hamstring autograft arthroscopic ACL reconstruction

Background Previous studies have associated anthropometric data and pre-operative hamstring tendon measurements to intraoperative graft diameter for hamstring autograft ACL reconstruction, although an integrated model has yet to be described. The aim of this study was to present such a predictive model for quadrupled semitendinosus (4-ST) and doubled semitendinosus-gracilis (4-STG) graft constr...

پیشگویی قطر گرافت تاندون همسترینگ در جراحی بازسازی رباط صلیبی قدامی به وسیله MRI

Introduction: Hamstring and patellar ligaments are the most common ligaments that used in arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). Preoperative knowledge about the diameter of the graft can be so useful for the surgeons. In the current study, the efficacy of measuring the graft diameter using MR imaging was investigated. Methods: In the present study 50 patients with ACL ...

Predicting the Hamstring Tendon Diameter Using Anthropometric Parameters

  Background: Despite the importance of hamstring tendon autograft, one major disadvantage in applying this technique in the surgical reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament is individual variability in the tendon diameter. Hence, the purpose of the present study was to use anthropometric parameters such as gender, height and body mass index to predict 4-strand (quadruple) hamstring ten...

Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction With Autologous Hamstring

BACKGROUND Recent clinical investigations have identified inadequate autograft hamstring graft diameter (<8 mm) to be predictive of failure after reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). PURPOSE/HYPOTHESIS The objective of this study was to determine the utility of preoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) variables of the hamstring tendons for the prediction of graft diame...

How to Improve the Prediction of Quadruple Semitendinosus and Gracilis Autograft Sizes with Magnetic Resonance Imaging and Ultrasonography

BACKGROUND Hamstring tendon grafts may have an unacceptable size for use in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been proposed to predict the diameters of hamstring tendon grafts. HYPOTHESIS Preoperative ultrasonography (US) might reliably anticipate intraoperative 4-strand semitendinosus and gracilis tendon (4ST-GT) graft sizes similarly to MR...
