Abstract

Background

To determine the correlation between intraoperative measurements of four-stranded hamstring grafts, preoperative MRI measurements, and anthropometric measurements. The study aimed to provide insights into graft diameter assessment and assist in the selection of hamstrings for graft preparation in the Indian population.

Material and methods

In this prospective study, 50 patients with complete anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries, with or without meniscal injuries, were included. Prior to surgery, anthropometric data and the largest axial diameter of the semitendinous and gracilis tendon at the medial femoral epicondyle were measured. The study aimed to establish correlations between Final diameter of the graft, preoperative hamstring graft diameter and anthropometric measurements.

Results

Radiological data was found to predict graft diameter better than anthropometric data. Gracilis diameter was more specific for graft diameters ≥8 mm.

Conclusion

Preoperative hamstring tendon diameter in the MRI is better predictor as compared to anthropometric data to predict of four strandend size of the graft.

前交叉韧带重建中四股腘绳肌腱移植物大小的术前预测：磁共振成像评估半腱肌和股薄肌腱比人体测量数据更好吗？

背景：确定术中四股腘绳肌腱移植测量、术前MRI测量和人体测量之间的相关性。该研究旨在为印度人群提供移植物直径评估的见解，并协助选择用于移植物准备的腿筋。材料和方法在这项前瞻性研究中，纳入了50例伴有或不伴有半月板损伤的完全性前交叉韧带（ACL）损伤患者。手术前，测量了人体测量数据和股上髁内侧半腱和股薄肌腱的最大轴向直径。该研究旨在建立移植物最终直径、术前腿筋移植物直径和人体测量值之间的相关性。结果放射学数据比人体测量数据更能预测移植物直径。结论术前腘绳肌肌腱直径与人体测量数据相比，MRI能更好地预测移植物的四股链大小。

期刊介绍： Journal of Clinical Orthopaedics and Trauma (JCOT) aims to provide its readers with the latest clinical and basic research, and informed opinions that shape today''s orthopedic practice, thereby providing an opportunity to practice evidence-based medicine. With contributions from leading clinicians and researchers around the world, we aim to be the premier journal providing an international perspective advancing knowledge of the musculoskeletal system. JCOT publishes content of value to both general orthopedic practitioners and specialists on all aspects of musculoskeletal research, diagnoses, and treatment. We accept following types of articles: • Original articles focusing on current clinical issues. • Review articles with learning value for professionals as well as students. • Research articles providing the latest in basic biological or engineering research on musculoskeletal diseases. • Regular columns by experts discussing issues affecting the field of orthopedics. • "Symposia" devoted to a single topic offering the general reader an overview of a field, but providing the specialist current in-depth information. • Video of any orthopedic surgery which is innovative and adds to present concepts. • Articles emphasizing or demonstrating a new clinical sign in the art of patient examination is also considered for publication. Contributions from anywhere in the world are welcome and considered on their merits.
