Clinical Trial Summary

This study aims to study differences in clinical and functional outcomes at 2 years based on hamstring graft size after single bundle anatomic ACL reconstruction using either 4-strand or 5-strand hamstring grafts. We also propose to study the characteristics of hamstring graft in our subset of patients in Asian population context.


Clinical Trial Description

This will be a prospective, randomized interventional study conducted at the National University Hospital under University Orthopaedics and Hand surgery Cluster during the period of December 2015 to December 2018. Study participants: The study will include 80 patients with complete Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) tear undergoing primary arthroscopic reconstruction with ipsilateral hamstring autograft after written informed consent to participate in the study.

The subjects will be divided into two groups A) 4-strand hamstring or B) 5-strand hamstring group by block randomization using an online randomization generator (http://www.graphpad.com/quickcalcs). All the subjects will undergo the procedure by otherwise identical technique performed by single surgeon. At 1 and 2 years functional and subjective outcomes will be assessed. ;
