This study was to approve the feasibility of bone-posterior cruciate ligament-bone (BPCLB) allograft transplantation in ACL reconstruction. Methods Eight patients underwent ACL reconstructions with BPCLFI allografts and were followed up for an average period of 32 months after operation. Results Subjective parameters including Intemational Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC), modified Larson knee ligament, Lysholm, and Tegner rating scales were much improved and side to side KT-2000 arthrometer difference was much less postoperatively. Pivot shift test was negative in all patients. The reconstructed ACL had satisfactory shape and tension. Conclusions BPCLB allograft is an optional choice for ACL reconstruction.展开更多
