NCT04550299

Brief Summary

In this study our objective is to compare two tibial ACL graft fixation systems in patients undergoing two different reconstructions technique (with simple and double bundle) in terms of tendon graft osteointegration, functionality and return to sports.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Bone-graft integration

    Bone-graft integration assessed in the MRI

    4-6 months

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Clinical scores

    4-12 months

  • Retear

    Through study completion, an average of 2 years

Study Arms (4)

Group A

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

single bundle technique with the use of bioabsorbable implants

Other: Surgical technique combined with a specific choice of the material for the ligament reconstruction

Group B

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

single bundle technique with the use of Bio-Intrafix

Other: Surgical technique combined with a specific choice of the material for the ligament reconstruction

Group C

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

double bundle technique with the use of bioabsorbable implants

Other: Surgical technique combined with a specific choice of the material for the ligament reconstruction

Group D

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

double bundle technique with the use of Bio-Intrafix

Other: Surgical technique combined with a specific choice of the material for the ligament reconstruction

Interventions

The surgical procedure is done as standard of care. The intervention is to randomize the participant into the study arms, which none of those has been proved yet to be a superior choice
