Comparison of clinical profile between aperture fixation with screw and suspensory fixation by endobutton in the femoral tunnel in arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction surgery
Dr.Mohammad Ayyub Khan

The femoral insertion of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is in the shape of a crescent, with the lateral intercondylar ridge as its straight anterior border and the posterior articular margin of the lateral femoral condyle as itsconvexposterior border. All the patients fulfilling the inclusion criteriawereselected using purposive sampling and were randomly allocated intotwogroups using simple randomization, each group consisting of 15 patients. Participants of group 1 were managed by APERTURE FIXATION, Participants of group 2 were managed bySUSPENSORY FIXATION. All the operated knees were divided based on the mode of injury and those treated by suspensory fixation were found to be sports injuries (13.33%), fallsfromheight (10%), falls during dancing (6.66%), self-fall (3.33%), hit by a bull (6.66%), kicked by a bull (0) & road traffic accidents (10%), whereas thosetreatedbyaperture fixation it was found to be sports injuries (10%) fall from height (10%), fall during dancing (6.66%), self-fall (6.66%), hit by a bull (0), kicked by a bull (3.33%) & road traffic accidents (13.33%) respectively. All the operated knees were divided based on the duration of injury, those treated by aperture fixation were found to be 0-1 month (6.66%), 1-2 months (30%)&2-3 months (13.33%), whereas those treated by suspensory fixation were found to be 0-1 month (13.33%), 1-2 month (30%) & 2-3 month (16.66%).
