Abstract

Introduction

We present a case series of patients that underwent knee ligament reconstruction with graft reinforcement using FibreTape (Arthrex), a 2mm wide non-biodegradable polyethylene tape. Outcomes and safety of this novel technique are reported.

Methods

Data were collected from a prospectively maintained database from 03/2011 to 11/2019. All skeletally mature patients that underwent reinforced knee ligament reconstruction surgery at Basingstoke and North Hampshire Hospital were included. The cohort was interrogated for outcomes including failure, complications, and subjective patient reported outcomes at 6,12 and 24 months postoperatively.
