Resumen

Introducción: la reconstrucción del ligamento cruzado anterior (LCA) depende en gran medida de la estabilidad inicial del injerto y del método de fijación femoral utilizado. Los sistemas ajustables convencionales pueden presentar elongación del lazo bajo carga cíclica (loop creep), con riesgo de pérdida de tensión y ensanchamiento del túnel óseo.

Objetivos: evaluar los resultados clínicos y radiológicos obtenidos con el uso de un botón femoral ajustable autobloqueante en la reconstrucción primaria del ligamento cruzado anterior con seguimiento mínimo de 36 meses.

Material y métodos: se realizó un estudio ambispectivo (nivel de evidencia IV) que incluyó 50 pacientes consecutivos sometidos a reconstrucción primaria del LCA con autoinjerto de isquiotibiales y fijación femoral con botón autobloqueante. Se analizaron las escalas IKDC, Lysholm y Tegner, además de la evolución radiológica (tamaño del túnel, posición del botón) y la resonancia magnética a los 9 meses. El seguimiento mínimo fue de 36 meses.

Resultados: los puntajes IKDC, Lysholm y Tegner mejoraron significativamente (58.2→94.8; 62.4→93.7; 3.1→6.8; p <0.001). No se registraron fallas del injerto, complicaciones ni ensanchamiento del túnel (Δ <0.3 mm). La resonancia magnética demostró ligamentización completa y consolidación ósea en el 100 % de los casos. El retorno deportivo promedio fue de 8.5 meses, con recuperación funcional total.

Conclusión: el botón femoral ajustable autobloqueante proporcionó fijación estable, ausencia de complicaciones y resultados clínicos reproducibles a 36 meses, constituyendo una alternativa confiable a los sistemas de lazo fijo tradicionales.
