Components of laxity in interference fit fixation of quadrupled hamstring grafts.
Acta orthopaedica Scandinavica(2009)
摘要
We tested in vitro 15 Poly-L-lactic acid and 14 titanium interference screws in male human cadaver tibia-hamstring constructs. Elongation of the graft, displacement of the screw in the tibial tunnel, and slippage at the graft/screw interface were measured as outcomes with an infrared optical system. All constructs failed by slippage of the graft past the interference screw. On average, graft slippage accounted for 92% of total construct laxity at 5mm total construct elongation, whereas permanent stretching of the midsubstance of the graft accounted for only 8%. Movement of the interference screw in the tibial canal was minimal, averaging 0.01 (0-0.5) mm at construct failure. Inadequacy of isolated tibial interference screw fixation of soft tissue grafts may be overcome if early failure at the graft/screw interface is prevented.
