The effect of short-graft preparation with tape suspension and screw fixation on loss of knee extension following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: A retrospective cross-sectional analysis of public hospital cases from 2015 - 2017
Abstract:Background: The Tape Locking Screw (TLS ®) system for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) is an emerging short graft with tape suspension (SGTS) technique which uses a single hamstring tendon with tape suspension and dedicated interference screw fixation. Few studies have examined the SGTS technique versus other techniques. The objective of this study was to compare LOE in patients undergoing ACLR with the SGTS technique with other ACLR techniques. We hypothesised that the SGTS technique would be s… Show more
