Article Synopsis
- The study explores the long-term effectiveness of the iliotibial band (ITB) autograft compared to the bone-patella-tendon-bone (BPTB) autograft in ACL reconstruction.
- Sixty patients participated in a randomized trial, with 30 receiving ITB and 30 receiving BPTB, and outcomes were assessed after 15 years.
- Results showed no significant differences in graft failure rates and knee function scores between the two groups, suggesting that ITB is a reliable alternative for ACL reconstruction.
Background/aim: Reference values are needed in order to interpret the Copenhagen Hip and Groin Outcome Score (HAGOS) in male soccer players with hip and groin pain. The aim of this study was to establish reference values for HAGOS in hip and groin injury-free male soccer players.
Methods: We included 444 groin injury-free soccer players from 40 clubs (divisions 1-4) in Eastern Denmark, mean age (SD) 23.
