- Abstract
Objective: In this study, it was aimed to compare the clinical results of the fixed loop endobutton method and the adjustable loop (lift-ultrabutton) endobutton method used during the fixation of the graft to the femur in arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. Materials and Methods: One hundred fourteen patients who underwent anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACBR) with an arthroscopic anatomic single-band method due to ACL rupture in our clinic between January 2017 and November 2018 were included in our study. Preoperative condition and postoperative average 1-year clinical results were analyzed retrospectively. The data obtained were evaluated using Lysholm, Cincinatti knee scores and the International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) knee assessment form. Results: One hundred and six of the patients (93%) were male and 8 (7%) were female. Autogenous hamstring tendons were fixed to the femur with an adjustable loop endobutton system in 74 patients (65%) and a fixed loop endobutton system in 40 patients (35%). When Lysholm, Cincinatti knee scores and International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) scoring were examined, a significant (p<0.001) increase was observed in the postoperative period compared to the preoperative period. Conclusion: The clinical success of the two methods applied was found to be similar. The advantages of this method are that the adjustable loop endobutton method requires less calculation during surgery and the surgery time is short. Prospective randomized studies with more patients are needed.
