A Single-Center, Observational Study Assessing Functional Outcomes After Arthroscopic Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Using Suspensory Tibial Fixation With a Polyether Ether Ketone (PEEK) Button.

Background Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) is a crucial procedure in orthopedic surgery. This study evaluates the efficacy and safety of ACLR employing suspensory tibial fixation with a polyether ether ketone (PEEK) button. Methodology This retrospective observational study conducted at Sai Shree Hospital, Pune, India, between November 2023 and December 2023 enrolled 47 subjects aged 18-60 years who underwent arthroscopic ACLR utilizing the T-Button-A Adjustable Loop Ultra-High-Molecular-Weight Polyethylene Suture PEEK button. The functional outcomes and patient-reported outcomes were assessed using the International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) score, the Modified Cincinnati Rating System Questionnaire (MCRS), the Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation (SANE) score, the Tegner Activity Level (TAL) Scale, and Knee Injury and Osteoarthritis Outcome Score (KOOS) quality of life subscale. Results Femoral fixation utilized 27 (57.4%) Proloop Ultra Adjustable Loop Button 60 mm, 19 (40.4%) Infiloop Fixed Loop Button 20 mm, and 1 (2.1%) Infiloop Fixed Loop Button 30 mm. Tibial fixation solely relied on T-Button A (PEEK Tibial Button With Adjustable Loop 90 mm). Postoperative evaluations revealed favorable IKDC (79.49 ± 12.67), MCRS (81.32 ± 11.57), SANE (77.83 ± 11.11), TAL Scale (3.87 ± 0.99) and KOOS quality of life subscale (83.81 ± 13.07) scores. Conclusions The findings affirm the efficacy and safety of arthroscopic ACLR utilizing suspensory tibial fixation with the PEEK button, supporting its use for improved patient outcomes.
