Introduction: Although anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) is considered a successful procedure, residual pivot-shift after surgery remains to be solved. The purpose of this study was to comprehensively evaluate the risk factors of residual pivot-shift after anatomic double-bundle (DB)-ACLR.Materials and Methods: A total of 164 patients who underwent primary anatomic DB-ACLR between January 2014 and December 2019 and screw removal after the index ACLR in our hospital were included in this retrospective case-control study. The manual pivot-shift test was performed under general anesthesia during screw removal surgery, and patients with grade 1 or higher pivot-shift were classified as the positive pivot-shift group, and those with grade 0 were defined as the negative pivot-shift group. Univariate and logistic regression analyses were performed to identify the factors associated with postoperative residual pivot-shift. Assessment included sex, age, time to surgery, preoperative Tegner activity scale, preoperative pivot-shift grade, preoperative anterior tibial translation by the KT-2000 arthrometer measurement, meniscus injury and its surgical procedure, knee hyperextension, cartilage damage, Segond fracture, medial and lateral posterior tibial slope, lateral -medial slope asymmetry, participation in pivoting sport/activity at the time of injury, and return to sports at postoperative one year. Line Results: Postoperative positive pivot-shift was observed in 14 (8.5%) of 164 patients. The KT-2000 measurement at 1-year postoperatively was significantly higher in the residual pivot-shift positive group than in the negative group (P < 0.05). Logistic regression analysis revealed that patients < 20 years of age 3 [P < 0.05, odds ratio (OR): 6.1)], preoperative pivot-shift grade (P < 0.05, OR: 4.4), and hyperextended knee (P < 0.05, OR: 11.8) were risk factors of postoperative pivot-shift. There were no statistically significant differences between other variables. Conclusions: Patients < 20 years of age, with high-grade preoperative pivot-shift, or hyperextended knees had a higher risk of residual postoperative pivot-shift.
