Lateral extra-articular tenodesis combined with anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction is effective in knees with additional features of lateral, hyperextension or increased rotational laxity: A matched cohort study

Arthroscopy Jun 08, 2021

Mahmoud A, Torbey S, Honeywill C, et al. - This study was undertaken to evaluate the patient reported outcome measures (PROMs) and graft survival of combined anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction and lateral extra-articular tenodesis (ACLR-LET) compared with a matched cohort having ACLR alone. Between 1996-2015, researchers retrospectively recruited a total of 83 patients from a consecutive series of primary ACLR-LET, with a minimum post-surgical time of four years. They compared ACLR-LET with isolated ACLR for age, gender and operation year. The study reveals that ACLR-LET demonstrates good graft survival and PROMs in a high-risk population. This implies that LET is an effective procedure to restore joint stability to a knee with additional features of laxity.
