Single-Stage Revision Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Using Fast-Setting Bone Graft Substitutes.


ABSTRACT: Revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstructions can be performed using either a single-stage or 2-stage technique. There are several benefits to using a single-stage approach when technically possible. Although not always feasible, eliminating the necessity of a 2-stage approach for certain indications is clearly preferable because it requires fewer operative procedures, leads to a more rapid recovery, and is cost effective. Here, we describe the use of fast-setting bone graft substitutes in the setting of single-stage revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. The authors have found this technique useful in converting what would sometimes otherwise be approached using 2 stages into a single-stage procedure.
