Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using a double bundle hamstring autograft configuration in patients under 30 years.

Background: Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) has a high incidence of re-tear in younger patients. Despite comparable functional outcomes, the incidence of re-tear using single and double bundle ACLR methods has not been well reported.

Aim: To hypothesize that double bundle hamstring ACLR has a lower graft rupture rate compared with single bundle hamstring ACLR grafts in young patients.
