This study aims to compare the clinical and functional outcomes and donor site morbidity of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with hamstring tendon autograft and peroneus longus tendon autograft in patients with complete anterior cruciate ligament rupture. Patients who underwent ACL reconstruction from February 2018 to July 2019 were randomly allocated into two groups (hamstring and peroneus longus). Functional scores (IKDC and Lysholm scores) and pain intensity by visual analogue score were recorded preoperatively, 3, 6months, 1, and 2 years postoperatively. Donor site morbidities were assessed with thigh circumference measurements in hamstring group and ankle scoring with the American foot and ankle score in peroneus longus group.Abstract
