Abstract
Aims and objectives
There are published literature regarding the correlation between Hamstring tendon (HT) graft profile and anthropometric data in patients undergoing ACL reconstruction from India; but not with Peroneus longus tendon (PLT). We hypothesise a positive correlation between the peroneus longus graft profile and few of patient's anthropometric variables.
Materials and methods
Sixty eight patients who underwent Arthroscopic ACL Reconstruction using PLT graft were evaluated. Intraoperatively, tripled PLT graft length and diameter were correlated to the patient's age, height, weight, duration of injury, and BMI.
Results
This study included 50 males and 18 females. Mean age was 29.2 ± 8.3 years, mean height was 169.8 ± 3.1 cm, mean weight was 78.4 ± 4.5 kg, mean BMI was 26.4 ± 0.1 kg/m2, mean duration of injury was 2.2 ± 4.9 months, mean graft diameter was 8.9 ± 0.6 mm and mean graft length was 8.5 ± 0.8. Positive correlation with graft length and diameter was found only with height and weight (p < 0.01).
Conclusion
Patient's height and weight, have a significant direct correlation with tripled PLT graft length and diameter.
