Purpose The aim of this study is to describe and validate a simple and reliable method to pre-
operatively predict the size of the ACL graft in the double strand technique with autologous …

Purpose Large variation in tendon size between individuals makes hamstring graft diameter
for anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction unpredictable. Inadequate graft diameter …

Aims The aims of this study were to determine the reliability and accuracy of 3T MRI in
predicting quadruple hamstring graft diameter for ACL reconstruction, to determine the …

Purpose To evaluate the utility of semitendinosus tendon (ST) and gracilis tendon (GT) cross‐
sectional area (CSA) on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and anthropometric …

Background Predicting hamstring graft size preoperatively for anterior cruciate ligament
(ACL) reconstruction is important for preempting an insufficient diameter in graft size …

Background: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction with a quadruple hamstring
(QH) autograft is a widely utilized procedure with good outcomes. A graft diameter less than …

Purpose The aim of this study was to predict the hamstring graft sizes prior to anterior
cruciate ligament reconstruction surgery in adults by using preoperative magnetic …

Background and objective Currently, there is no stablished pre-operative model that helps
the orthopaedic surgeon predict the final graft diameter in anterior cruciate ligament …

Background: Hamstring tendon grafts may have an unacceptable size for use in anterior
cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has been …

Objective: This study aimed to find out the level of the gracilis and semitendinosus tendons
that would provide the closest information about the size of the quadruple-stranded …
