BACKGROUND: It is important to investigate and compare graft diameters as well as graft types to identify risk factors for revision after an anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. We performed the current study in order to analyze the early ACL revision rate among patients treated with hamstring tendon (HT) autografts or patellar tendon (PT) autografts of different diameters. Our hypothesis was that an increase in both HT and PT autograft diameters would reduce the risk of early ACL revision. METHODS: This retrospective study was based on prospectively collected data from the national knee ligament registries of Norway and Sweden and included patients who underwent primary ACL reconstruction during the period of 2004 through 2014. The primary end point was the 2-year incidence of ACL revision. The impact of graft type and diameter on the incidence of revision surgery was reported as relative risks (RRs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs), estimated by using generalized linear models with a binomial distribution and log-link function. RESULTS: Of 58,692 patients identified, a total of 18,425 patients were included in this study. The 2-year rate of ACL revision was 2.10% (PT autografts, 2.63%; HT autografts, 2.08%; RR = 0.93 [95% CI = 0.60 to 1.45]). There was an increased risk of ACL revision among patients treated with HT autografts with a diameter of <8 mm compared with larger HT autografts (RR = 1.25 [95% CI = 1.01 to 1.57]). Patients treated with HT autografts with a diameter of ≥9.0 mm or ≥10.0 mm had a reduced risk of early ACL revision compared with patients treated with PT autografts. CONCLUSIONS: Patients treated with larger-diameter HT autografts had a lower risk of early ACL revision compared with those treated with HT autografts of <8 mm. Patients treated with HT autografts of ≥9 or ≥10 mm had a reduced risk of early ACL revision compared with patients treated with PT autografts. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Therapeutic Level III.
