Autograft was used in 4 studies: iliac crest bone autograft (ICBG, n = 3) and tibial bone autograft (TBA, n = 1). [11] noted that this suggestion is unnecessary, as using a two-stage technique ensures that there is good-quality bone around the tunnels, and the initial graft fixation is as secure as in the primary reconstruction. Autogenous grafts are considered the gold standard, due to their osteoinductive, osteoconductive, and osteogenic properties. Additionally, Brown and Carson [20] regarded patients with a bone tunnel of <15mm diameter as good candidates for grafting. The results from this group were compared to the results of a matched group of patients with primary ACLR. - surgeon will also note more perpendicular drill angle to bone surface with AM vs TransTibial drilling; Comparison of Femoral Tunnel Position and Clinical Results.

However, an absolute threshold for how much tunnel-widening and bone loss is acceptable to undergo a single stage with an intraoperative bone graft prior to drilling has not been established [4, 16,17,18,19]. Purposes: We sought to introduce our new technique of Bashti bone plug for fixation of soft tissue graft in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction and to compare . 3 0 obj To minimize the risk of viral and bacterial contamination, allograft bone is sterilized. [26] reported the use of a sCO2-sterilized bone allograft to fill tunnel defects as the first stage of a two-stage revision ACLR. - ref: Correlation between femoral tunnel length and tunnel position in ACL reconstruction. doi: 10.1016/j.eats.2022.03.024.

To date, the literature on revision ACLR surgery has primarily focused on comparing the outcomes to those of primary ACLR. Successful revision surgery requires an understanding of the cause of failure, careful preoperative planning, meticulous surgical execution, proper postoperative rehabilitation, and appropriate patient counseling [4]. Hi you mentioned this was a staged procedure - any chance you can post the entire operative report without patient info? Numerous studies have reported that additional procedures (e.g., extra-articular tenodesis, anatomical anterolateral ligament (ALL) reconstruction) could be a meaningful option in cases of revision ACLR to improved rotatory stability which is associated with re-injury.
