| Abstract | ||||
| Background: Arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction is a commonly performed procedure for individuals with ACL injuries. The choice of graft material is crucial for the success of the surgery, with minimally invasive quadriceps tendon autografts and hamstring tendon autografts being the most frequently used options. Objective: This comparative review aims to analyze and compare the outcomes of arthroscopic ACL reconstruction using minimally invasive quadriceps tendon autografts and hamstring tendon autografts. The objective is to provide valuable insights into the advantages, limitations, and clinical efficacy of each graft option. Conclusions: Both minimally invasive quadriceps tendon autografts and hamstring tendon autografts have demonstrated positive outcomes in arthroscopic ACL reconstruction. Each graft option has its own advantages and limitations, such as graft strength, harvest site morbidity, postoperative pain, and recovery time. Surgeons and patients can use this information to make informed decisions regarding graft selection in ACL reconstruction.
