No full textIntroduction
Recently, much attention has been focused on tunnel enlargement phenomenon following Anterior
Cruciate Ligament (ACL) reconstruction with hamstrings.
The aim of the study was to evaluate the efficacy of the nanohydroxiapatite used as a bone graft in
the bone tunnels to prevent this phenomenon possibly allowing a better tendon-to-bone integration.
Methods
Twenty consecutive male patients operated for ACL reconstruction were enrolled in this prospective
study and they were randomly assigned to group A (10 patients, nanohydroxiapatite group) and
group B (10 patients, control group).
All patients underwent Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) exam ten months after surgery with the
aim to evaluate the amount of tunnel enlargement, the signal intensity in the central and in the peripheric
part of the graft, and around bone the tunnel.
Results
Clinical evaluations, KT-1000 arthrometer and knee evaluation scales did not show any difference
among the two groups.
The mean tibial tunnel diameter increased significantly from 9.04± 0.06 mm to 9.68±0.32 mm in
group A and from 9.03±0.26 mm to 10±0.5 mm in group B (p<0.05).
No differences were detected on the femoral side instead (p>0.05).
In all the examined zones, an earlier and significant evidence of progressive signal hyper-intensity
of T2-weighted fat-sat images examined was detected in group A compared to group B.
Conclusion
The use of the nanohydroxyapatite as a bone graft substitute seems to be efficient in preventing enlargement
of tibial bone tunnel after ACL reconstruction with the same fixation devices
