Four-Strand Short Graft Failure Loads of Half-Peroneus Longus Tendon Grafts Compared With Full Semitendinosus Tendon Grafts
Listen to this summary
The authors aimed to compare the load to failure of half-peroneus longus tendon (PLT) grafts with full semitendinosus tendon (STT) grafts in a short 4-strand configuration for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. Their findings revealed that half-PLT grafts exhibited a significantly lower mean load to failure (964.5 N) compared to STT grafts (1291 N), suggesting that surgeons should exercise caution when using half-PLT grafts in ACL surgeries. The study supports the use of full PLT grafts as a viable alternative to STT grafts.
