Background: In orthopaedics, allografts can be utilised to treat bone loss, multiple ligament injuries, and a lack of local tissue. Arthroscopy is frequently used to rebuild the ACL utilising a variety of autografts. In certain circumstances, allografts may be preferable over autografts for the treatment due to the benefits associated with their use.
With this analysis, we compare the outcomes of allograft use across different trials.
Patients with isolated anterior cruciate ligament injury who had arthroscopic ACL repair with allograft were included in the research. During follow-up, functional scoring was performed at regular intervals.
The patients had a Tegner score of 7.24 and an IKDC score of 85.28 at the end of the study. In more than 80% of patients, knee flexion of more than 1200 degrees was reached with no functional impairment. No graft failures were seen.
In contrast to popular assumption, allografts are a viable alternative to autografts. Soft tissue allografts and autografts have similar clinical outcomes, graft failure rates, and comorbidities. There are various advantages, each with its own set of constraints.Author(S) Details
