title: [Clinical and radiological results of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with vascularized, pedunculated patellar tendon grafts].
abstract: From June 1983 to May 1985 we used pediculated, vascularized patellar tendon grafts in reconstructions of the anterior cruciate ligament. The results according to the Zarius/Rowe scoring scale are reported. In 76% of the patients the results were good and excellent two years postoperatively. From 49 replacements 4 times avulsion of the femoral bone block occurred. These patients had a poor clinical result. A literature review reveals better results in replacement than in refixation cases.
