TABLE 2.

Graft Failure Informationa

Study: Group Information
Barrett (2002)2
 BPB Clinical failure occurred in 3 patients: 2 had a 1+ pivot shift and 1+ Lachman, and 1 had a 2+ Lachman and 2+ pivot shift.
 HT Failure of the graft occurred in 9 cases at final follow-up, as determined by the presence of a 1+ pivot shift in 5 cases, a KT-1000 arthrometer difference >5 mm in 1 case, and a 2+ Lachman and 1+ or 2+ pivot shift in 4 cases.
Ibrahim (2005)18 Occasional giving way was reported by 2 patients in the BPB group and 3 in the HT group. Two patients reported giving way during physical activity (1 BPB and 1 HT).
Taylor (2009)40 There were 3 BPB and 4 HT graft ruptures: 75% of the HT ruptures occurred before or at 1 y, while all the BTB ruptures occurred after 1 y; 6 graft ruptures occurred because of a noncontact injury mechanism and 1 in a contact injury.
Mohtadi (2016)25
 BPB 3 patients with complete traumatic tear and 16 with atraumatic graft failure
 HT 12 patients with complete traumatic tear and 17 with atraumatic graft failure
Webster (2016)43
 BPB 1 rupture occurred at 6 mo owing to a significant trauma.
 HT Between 3 and 15 y, 3 patients experienced rerupture.

aBPB, bone–patellar tendon–bone; HT, hamstring tendon.
