  • Title: Reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament by semitendinosus tenodesis.
    Author: Cho KO.
    Journal: J Bone Joint Surg Am; 1975 Jul; 57(5):608-12. PubMed ID: 1150699.
    Abstract:
    Rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament constitutes a major disability in young athletes and those patients with persistent disabling instability who have failed to respond to conservative treatment. A new method of reconstruction by means of semitendinsous tenodesis was used in five patients with satisfactory end results after an average follow-up of 21.4 months. Limited clinical experience indicates that with this method less anteroposterior instability persists than with other methods.
