Purpose : The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical outcomes and radiological changes after reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament with human allograft. Material and Method : Authors analyzed 22 cases of anterior cruciate ligament allograft reconstruction which were done from January, 1995 to December, 1998 and could be followed up for a year or more. All cases were followed and reviewed in terms of anterior drawer test, Lachman test, Pivot shift test, radiographic examination, knee range of motion, and side-to-side difference of anteroior tibial translation using CA-4000 knee motion analyzer, and Lysholm knee scoring system. Result : The mean Lysholm knee score was 54 preoperatively and improved to 81 postoperatively by average of 27. The side-to-side difference of anterior tibial translation using CA-4000 knee motion analyser was less than 3 mm in 16 cases$(73\%)$, between 3 and 5 mm in 4 cases$(18\%)$, and greater than 6 min in 2 cases$(9\%)$. Average tibial tunnel enlargement was 1.5 mm, but there were not any osteoiysis or cystic formation along the tunnel and no relationship between tunnel enlargement and clinical outcome. Conclusion : Although this study had limited cases, clinical results of anterior cruciate allograft reconstruction were similar to those of reconstruction with autograft reported in the literatures. We think that allograft is an acceptable substitute fer autograft in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.
