ISAKOS: Similar prevalence of OA after ACL Recon when comparing Hamstring and BTB grafts

The long term prevalence of osteoarthritis following ACL injury and reconstruction was assessed to compared differences between graft types and identify other possible predictors in a 14 year follow-up of a randomized trial. 164 (82% evaluated) patients were randomized to either semitendinosus-tendon graft or bone-patella-tendon-bone graft. The 14 year radiographic outcomes displayed an increased risk of OA after ACL reconstruction with no differences in Knee Osteoarthritis Outcome score (KOOS) and Tegner activity level between the two grafts.
