Compares functional outcomes of autografts and allografts in ACL reconstruction, suggesting implications for surgical choices.
The study found that autografts and allografts yield variable functional and clinical outcomes in ACLR at minimum 24-month follow-up, with autografts showing modest yet statistically significant advantage in IKDC and Tegner activity scores, but not in Lysholm functional score at and beyond 24 months. However, Lachmann's scores suggested better stability with allografts.
