Bioabsorbable screws versus metallic interference screw fixation in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using hamstring autograft: comparative analysis of functional outcome

Background: This prospective comparative study aimed to evaluate the functional outcomes of bioabsorbable screws versus titanium interference for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction using hamstring autograft. Methods: The included 30 patients who underwent ACL with a quadrupled graft; 15 were fixed and screws. followed up six months post-surgery. evaluated Lysholm score. data analyzed SPSS version 22.0. Results: There was no significant difference in between two groups at six-month follow-up. Conclusions: Our shows that there outcome whether or screw used. success depends on correct technique used surgery, precise placement graft rehabilitation methods than type fixation device used, neither nor
