Summary
This study used MRI scans to look at how hamstring tendon grafts used to repair the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) heal and change shape over time. Researchers followed 24 adults who had ACL reconstruction surgery at least one year earlier. The goal was to understand how often the bone tunnels enlarge (ballooning) and how well the graft transforms into ligament-like tissue (ligamentisation).
