PurposeAnterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) using a short, quadrupled semitendinosus (ST‐4) autograft, fixed with an adjustable suspensory fixation (ASF), has several potential advantages. However, the construct is suspected to generate micromotion, tunnel widening and poor graft maturation. The aim of this study was to evaluate post‐operative tibial tunnel expansion, graft maturation and clinical outcomes for this type of ACLR. MethodsOne‐hundred and forty‐nine patients were reviewed at a minimum of 2 years following 4‐ST ACLR, mean 25.6 ± 3.5 months [24–55], with clinical follow‐up and MRI scans. Graft maturity of the intra‐articular part of the graft and the tibial tunnel portion was assessed using Signal‐to‐Noise Quotient (SNQ) and Howell score. Tibial tunnel expansion, bone–graft contact and graft volume in the tibial tunnel were calculated from the MRI scans. ResultsMean tibial tunnel expansion was 13 ± 16.5% [12–122]. Mean SNQ for graft within the tibial tunnel was 3.8 ± 7.1 [ – 7.7 to 39] and 2.0 ± 3.5 [ – 14 to 17] for the intra‐articular portion of the graft. The Howell score for graft within the tibial tunnel was 41% Grade I, 37% Grade 2, 20% Grade 3, 2% grade 4, and for the intra‐articular part 61% Grade 1, 26% Grade 2, 13% Grade 3 and 1% Grade 4. The mean tibial tunnel bone–graft contact was 81 ± 23% [0–100] and mean graft volume was 80 ± 22% [0–100]. No correlation was found between tibial tunnel expansion and graft maturity assessed at both locations. Graft maturity was correlated with higher graft‐bone contact and graft volume in the tibial tunnel (p < 0.05). ConclusionsST‐4 ACLR with ASF had low levels of tunnel enlargement at 2 years. No correlation was found between graft maturation and tibial tunnel expansion. Graft maturity was correlated with graft–bone contact and graft volume in the tibial tunnel. Level of evidenceLevel III.
