Epub 2012 Jun 3This meta-analysis and systematic review identified 9 randomized controlled trials comparing hamstring (HT) autografts and bone-patellar tendon-bone (BPTB) autografts in patients undergoing anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. The analysis indicated that the HT autograft group had a significantly lower proportion of patients with a negative Pivot test than the BPTB autograft group. However, fewer patients in the HT group experienced post-operative anterior knee pain and kneeling pain compared to the BPTB group.

なぜ今この研究が必要なのですか?
There is currently much debate regarding the optimal type of graft that for ACL reconstruction. While autografts have been considered superior to allografts, it is still uncertain as to which type of autograft is best. HT autografts have been associated with a lower risk of donor site morbidity than BPTB autografts, whereas BPTB grafts have been shown to be more stable than the HT alternative. This meta-analysis and systematic review, therefore, aimed to include only randomized controlled trials in comparing the effectiveness of HT and BPTB autografts in patients undergoing ACL reconstruction.
主な研究課題は何ですか?
Is there a difference between HT and BPTB autografts with regard to stability, function, and complications in patients undergoing ACL reconstruction?
重要な知見は?
- According to 8 studies, the two autografts did not differ with respect to post-operative knee joint function (IKDC scores) (RR 1.05, 95 % CI 0.93-1.19, p=0.41)
- The pooled data from 5 studies indicated that there was no significant difference between the two types of autografts for the proportion of patients with negative Lachman test results (RR 0.65, 95 % CI 0.18-2.34, p=0.51)
- According to 6 studies, the BPTB autograft resulted in a higher proportion of patients with a negative Pivot test than the HT autograft (RR 0.87, 95 % CI 0.79-0.96, p=0.004)
- The HT group demonstrated a lower incidence of post-operative anterior knee pain (4 studies) (RR 0.66, 95 % CI 0.45-0.96, p=0.03) and kneeling pain (6 studies) (RR 0.49, 95 % CI 0.27-0.91, p=0.02) than the BPTB group
- From 5 studies, extension loss of 5 degrees or greater was seen in 26 out of 219 HT group patients and 29 out of 178 BPTB group patients (RR 0.63, 95% CI 0.39-1.01); from 3 studies, flexion loss of 5 degrees or more was seen in 62 of 141 HT patients and 37 of 105 BPTB patients (RR 1.03, 95 % CI 0.78-1.35)
- There was no difference between the two groups for the incidence of graft failure (8 studies; RR 1.37, 95 % CI 0.67-2.81, p=0.38), infection rate (6 studies; RR 1.04, 95 % CI 0.46-2.35, p=0.93), and rate of reoperation related to the meniscus (RR 1.78, 95 % CI 0.75-4.22, p=0.19)
最も覚えておくべきことは?
The results suggested that bone-patellar tendon-bone (BPTB) autografts were superior to hamstring autografts with respect to the resulting knee joint stability after ACL reconstruction. However, the hamstring graft resulted in fewer complications (anterior knee pain, and pain when kneeling) than the BPTB graft.
それが私の患者ケアにどのように影響するか?
Using a BPTB autograft for ACL reconstruction results in greater rotational stability compared to using a hamstring autograft as assessed with the Pivot shift test at the expense of a higher likelihood of anterior knee pain and kneeling pain.Although patients who received the BPTB autograft tended to demonstrate better recovery of knee joint stability than those who received the hamstring graft, a greater incidence of anterior knee pain and kneeling pain was seen in the BPTB patients than the hamstring group patients.
