| Abstract | ||
| Background: The utilization of the peroneus longus tendon (PLT) as a viable alternative auto-graft for anterior cruciate ligament repair (ACLR) has been seen. The present study aimed to compare the functional outcomes of ACLR using PLT auto-graft versus hamstring tendon (HT) auto-graft. Material and Methods: We recruited a total of forty patients who had experienced an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tear. These patients were then separated into two groups based on the type of auto-graft used in the anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). Group A had ACLR with PLT auto-graft prospectively, and group B had ACLR with HT auto-graft retrospectively. Results: At the final follow-up, the mean post-operative IKDC score for groups A and B was 96±1 and 90.5±2.75, respectively. The mean post-operative AOFAS score for group A was 98±2. Conclusion: In our series, PLT auto-graft for ACLR produced excellent functional results. PLT auto-graft can be a safe and efficient substitute for other auto-grafts for ACLR without causing appreciable donor site morbidity. | ||
