All Inside Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Augmentation with Suture Tape

Abstract

Purpose: To access the short term outcome for anatomic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) using the all-Inside translateral technique with suture tape augmentation.Methods: Patients undergoing ACLR using the all-Inside technique between August 2018 and September 2020 with minimum 1-year follow-up were included in this study. Functional outcome measures were IKDC, Lysholm, and Tegner Activity Scale, VAS Scale for Pain assessment a period of 1, 3, 6, and 12 Months Respectively.Results: Total 20 patients who underwent primary all-Inside ACLR with suture tape augmentation follow-uped till 1 year. There were 17 men and 3 women with a mean age of 29 years (range, 21 to 35 years). The International Knee Documentation Committee score (40 v 90.7, P < .0001), visual analogue scale score (6.2 v 0.2, P < .001), and Tegner activity score (2.4 v 6.6, P < .001) showed a significant improvement between baseline and final clinical followup. Conclusion: Augmentation of the graft with Good functional outcome and rate of graft failure is zero in the short term. Similar functional outcome of ACLR in anatomic all Insidetranslateral technique. Knee stability with contralateral knee has no difference and return to pre-injury activity level was satisfactory.
