Abstract:PurposeBone patella‐tendon bone (BPTB) and hamstring tendon (HT) autografts are the most used grafts in primary anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstructions (ACLR) in Norway. Quadriceps tendon (QT) autograft has gained more popularity during the past years. The purpose of this study is to compare revision rates and patient‐reported outcomes of primary QT with BPTB and HT autograft ACL reconstructions in Norway at 2‐year follow‐up. It was hypothesized that there would be no difference in 2‐year revision rat… Show more
