This was a retrospective, observational, single centre clinical study. Patients who underwent ACL reconstruction at a tertiary trauma centre were recruited. This study aimed to assess the functional outcomes of ACL reconstruction surgery using titanium adjustable loop buttons and poly-L-co-DL-lactic acid-beta tricalcium phosphate (PLDLA- Beta TCP) interference screws of Sironix. The findings revealed a significant improvement of ACL reconstruction.
This retrospective, observational study was conducted to assess the functional outcomes after arthroscopic ACL reconstruction procedure using Sironix knee devices. Considering remarkable results in all the functional assessment scores and no incidence of reconstruction failures, this study concludes that ACL reconstruction surgery using Sironix knee devices as safe and effective method.

This was a retrospective observational study. Patients who underwent arthroscopic ACL-R using Sironix suture button and interference screw (January 2018-March 2022) were included in the study. Functional outcomes of patients were evaluated using the international knee documentation committee (IKDC) assessment, the Tegner activity scale (TAS), the Lysholm knee scoring scale, the modified knee injury and osteoarthritis outcome score (KOOS) quality of life subscale, and the single assessment numerical evaluation (SANE) score. Arthroscopic ACL-R using Sironix implants (Helysis titanium interference screw, Helysis PLDLA+β-TCP interference screw, Infiloop fixed loop UHMWPE suture titanium button, Proloop adjustable loop UHMWPE suture Titanium button, and Titanium suture disc) demonstrated safety and good functional outcomes.
