Comparison of Doubled Quadrupled Versus Quadrupled Allograft Tissue Constructs for Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) Reconstruction

A Prospective Randomized Comparison of Doubled Versus Quadrupled Allogenic Tissue Constructs for Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction

The purpose of this study is to compare two different soft tissue allografts, double bundle tibialis anterior allograft or quadruple bundle hamstring allograft, used in repairing a torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) of the knee.

Inclusion Criteria:

• ACL injury is the primary limitation to activities of daily living.

Exclusion Criteria:

• Multiple current ligamentous injuries to the knee.
• Revision reconstruction of the ACL.
• Uncorrected instability of the ACL on the opposite knee.
