About

The purpose of the study is to compare short-term patient reported outcome measures (PROM) of Bone-Quadriceps-Tendon (BQT) autograft with Semitendinosus-Gracilis (STG) and Bone-Patellar-Tendon-Bone (BPTB) autografts following Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction (ACLR).

The PROM used are Knee Injury and Osteoarthrithis Outcome Score (KOOS) and Tegner. Difference in change in KOOS, KOOS subscales and Tegner from preoperative baseline to one-year follow-up and absolute KOOS, KOOS subscales and Tegner at one-year follow-up were evaluated. All of which were BQT compared to STG and BPTB, respectively. The primary outcome is change in KOOS from preoperative baselinge to one-year follow-up. Other outcomes are secondary.

The hypothesis was that patients receiving the BQT autograft show similar results in KOOS, KOOS subscales and Tegner as patients receiving STG or BPTB autografts.
