전방십자인대 재건술시 자가건 선택에 대해서는 많은 논쟁의 소지가 존재하며 많은 보고들이 나오고 있으나, 현 시점에서 이식건으로써 자가 골-슬개건-골이 표준(gold standard)라는 주장은 이제 변화하고 있으며, 골-건 고정방법의 개선에 따른 조기 슬관절 안정성의 호전으로 자가 슬괵건의 사용이 점점 증가되고 있는 추세이다. 자가 골-슬개건-골은 이식건으로써 강한 물성, 튼튼한 고정, 장기 추시에서 높은 성공률 등으로 젊고, 강한 활동을 요하는 운동선수에서 종종 선택되고 있으며 조기에 강한 활동으로의 운동 복귀를 할 수 있다. 그러나 슬관절 전방 통증, 무릎을 꿇을 때의 통증, 슬개골골절, 슬개-대퇴 관절의 염발음 및 대퇴사두근력의 감소 등 이식물 채취로 인한 공여부 이환이 문제가 되었다. 그래서 자가 골-슬개건-골의 이식건으로서의 문제점 및 문헌상 고찰을 하여 논하고자 한다.

The incidence of anterior cruciate ligament tears is increasing as a result of the increasing participation of individuals of all ages in high-risk sports. Endoscopic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using autogenous central third bone-patellar tendon-bone graft is the most commonly used method. With regard to BPTB graft as the go]d standard in ACL reconstruction, there are no data that refute this claim to date. Author reviewed the biomechanical properties, donor site morbidity and selection of the bone-patellar tendon-bone graft and described the surgical technique of endoscopic ACL reconstruction using BPTB autograft.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical results of bone-patellar tendon-bone(B-PTB) allograft for ACL reconstruction without mechanical tensioning device. Material and Method : Forty-six knees in 43 patients were reviewed and evaluated with subjective evaluation, objective evaluation, Telos stress arthrometer and modified Feagin Scoring System. The average age at the time of operation was 27 years(range, 18-42) and the average follow up period was 41 months(range, 22-79). Authors reconstructed ACL using B-PTB allograft which was prepared by rehydration preoperatively without tensioning by mechanical tensioning device. The tension for allograft was obtained by full flexion and extension intraoperatively. All operation were performed arthroscopically by two-tunnel method to avoid the mismatching of allograft tendon length. Result : The modified Feagin Scoring System revealed 39 cases(84.7%) with excellent or good results and 7 cases(15.3%) with fair or poor results. The mean follow-up Lysholm Knee Score was 84. Telos arthrometer revealed 41 cases had an injured-to-uninjured difference of 5 mm or less(mean 2.3mm). The range of motion of knee was nearly normal and there was no extension lag in any cases at last follow up. Conclusion : Clinical results using B-PTB allograft showed less morbidity than B-PTB autograft. The intraoperative tensioning method by full flexion and extension without mechanical tensioning device was not bad. Therefore, B-PTB allograft is a good substitute material in reconstruction of the ACL.

Purpose : The purpose of this study was to compare the efficacy of bone-patellar tendon-bone(B-PTB) allograft with autograft B-PTB reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament(ACL) according to the subjective and objective criteria. Materials and Methods : 42 patients were treated for acute rupture or chronic insufficiency of the ACL between March 1993 and June 1996. There were 18 autografts and 24 allografts for ACL reconstruction. At 2 years of follow-up after operation, autograft and allograft groups were compared based on subjective, objective criteria and Telos stress arthrometer. Results : The modified Feagin Scoring System revealed 16 patients$(88.9\%)$ with a satisfactory result by autografts, but 21 patients$(87.5\%)$ with a satisfactory result by allografts after 2-years follow-lip. There was no statistically significant difference between the two groups. ACL reconstruction with B-PTB allograft did not produce a significant functional deficit. But patellofemoral pain and crepitus were more frequent in the autografts$(33.3\%)$ than allografts$(8.3\%)$ (p<0.05). Conclusion : The ACL deficient knees treated with allografts for ACL reconstruction tended to be better than those reconstructed with autografts fur the reduction of patellofemoral crepitus and pain. B-PTB allograft provides an acceptable alternative to autograft tissue for reconstruction of the ACL.

Purpose : The purpose of this study is to compare the clinical and radiologic results of the anterior cruciate ligament(ACL) reconstruction using bone-patellar tendon-bone unit with doubled semitendinosus and gracilis tendons. Materias and Methods : Clinical results of ACL reconstructions which were performed in 47 patients using doubled semitendinosus and gracilis were compared with those performed in 45 patients using bone-patellar tendon-bone autograft. There were no differences in preoperative parameters(age, sex, instability). Average follow-up period were 17 months and 19 months each. Results : There were no significant differences between two groups in functional results (Lysholm knee score), degree of laxity and range of motion at final follow-up. However, the parapatellar complication, especially anterior knee pain after long distance walking or exercise and quadriceps weakness less occurred in hamstring tendon group than in bone-patellar tendon-bone group. Conclusion : Although there were no significant differences in clinical results of ACL reconstruction using bone-patellar tendon-bone autograft and doubled semitendinosus and gacilis, parapateller complications occurred more in the bone-patellar tendon-bone autograft group than in the doubled semitendinosus and gracilis group. It is thought that the careful selection of patient, achivement of skillful technique and active rehabilitation are important to prevent the parapatellar complications.

Purpose: To compare the mid-term follow-up results of anterior cruciate ligament(ACL) reconstruction with the bone-patellar tendon- bone(BTB) autograft to those with the BTB allograft. Materials and Methods: Retrospective study was performed in 59 cases with BTB autograft and 42 cases with BTB allograft. Evaluations include Lysholm score, 2000 IKDC subjective knee score, Shelbourne patello-femoral pain score , Lachman test, pivot shift test, KT-1000 arthrometer test and 2000 IKDC knee examination. Results: There were no significant statistic differences between two groups in Lysholm score and 2000 IKDC subjective knee score of more than 70 (p<0.05). Five cases(8.5%) showed the patello-femoral pain score less than 80 according to Shelboume with autograft group and two cases(4.8%) with allograft group (p<0.05). Lachman test, pivot shift test and KT-1000 arthrometer test showed no significant statistic differences between two groups(P<0.05). Fifty-four cases(91.5%) were normal or nearly normal according to the 2000 IKDC knee examination with autograft group and thirty-eight cases(90.4%) with allograft group(p<0.05).Conclusion: BTB allograft as well as BTB autograft is considered to be an acceptable choice for ACL reconstruction.

Purpose: To compare the incidence and risk factors for osteoarthritis after anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction between two groups using bone-patellar tendon-bone (BPTB) and hamstring tendon (HT) autograft. Materials and Methods: 53 cases of ACL reconstruction using patellar tendon and 40 cases using hamstring tendon were followed up at least 8 years. Radiographic evaluation was done according to the Kellgren and Lawrence's classification. Clinical functional testing (Lysholm Knee Scores, the Tegner activity scores) and laxity testing (Lachman, pivot shift tests), and the instrumented laxity testing with $Telos^{(R)}$ were all examined in relation to the development of osteoarthritis. Results: Radiographic osteoarthritic changes were detected in 24 patients (45.3%) in BPTB group and 14 patients (35.0%) in HT group. Accompanying meniscal injury (BPTB p<0.001; HT p=0.091), intervals from the injury to reconstruction of > 12 months (BPTB p=0.037; HT p=0.021), and patient's age at reconstruction of > 25 years (BPTB p=0.003; HT p=0.048) were found to be significant independent predictors of osteoarthritis. However, no statistically significant correlations were found between the development of osteoarthritis and the clinical outcome or the radiographic stability in both groups. Conclusion: Although ACL reconstruction using BPTB or HT autograft had good clinical results at an average follow-up of 10 years, considerable incidence of radiographic osteoarthritic changes were noted. Various factors such as accompanying meniscal injury, protracted time from injury to reconstruction, more than 25 years old at the time of reconstruction were related to radiographic osteoarthritic changes.

Purpose : The purpose of this study is to prevent thc graft-tunnel mismatch by measuring the patellar tendon length, intertunnel distance, tibial tunnel length and by obtaining appropriate bone block length. Materials and Methods : Authors analyzed 15 patients who had taken the anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction from March 1997 to June 1999. Tibial guide was always set on the "endo" $40^{\circ}$ position(Acufex, MA, USA). We measured the following indices, intertunnel distance(X), tibial tunnel length(T), patellar tendon length(N), tibia bone plug length(Y). Both of the femoral tunnel length(F) and the patellar bone plug length(P) were made in 25mm. The appropriate tibial bone plug length was simply calculated by subtracting the patellar tendon length from the sum of the intertunnel distance and thc tibial tunnel length(Y=X+T-N). Results : The average indices were as follows ; the intertunnel distance(X) was $23.4{\pm}1.4mm$, the tibial tunnel length(T) was $43.6{\pm}1.7mm$, the patellar tendon length was $40{\pm}2.4mm$, and the tibia bone plug length was $27{\pm}2.4mm$. Conclusion : In authors' endoscopic technique, establishment of individually determined optimal tibial bone plug length, based on total tunnel length and patellar tendon length could prevent the problem of graft-tunnel mismatch.
