Two initial failure rates following hamstring autograft ACLR without LET in high\u2010risk patients were used based on a previous study: the rate of revision surgery (11%) and the rate of clinical failure due to rotatory instability (40%). Breakeven economic analysis was used to assess the cost\u2010effectiveness of adding LET to primary ACLR. To account for the variability in cost, initial failure rates, and procedural differences across institutions, a wide range of values were used to calculate the absolute risk reduction (ARR) and number needed to treat (NNT) to achieve cost\u2010effectiveness.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Assuming primary ACLR cost of $20,840, ACLR\u2010LET cost of $27,405, and revision ACLR cost of $35,205, primary LET is cost\u2010effective at initial failure rates exceeding 18.7% (ARR\u2009=\u20090.187, NNT\u2009=\u20095). Assuming a 40% failure rate, LET is cost\u2010effective when revision surgery costs are greater than $16,412 (ARR\u2009=\u20090.400, NNT\u2009=\u20093) or when primary ACLR\u2010LET costs less than $39,422 (ARR\u2009=\u20090.400, NNT\u2009=\u20093). When assuming a failure rate of 11%, LET is cost\u2010effective when revision surgery costs exceed $59,700 (ARR\u2009=\u20090.110, NNT\u2009=\u2009\u22129) or when primary ACLR\u2010LET is no greater than $24,712 (ARR\u2009=\u20090.110, NNT\u2009=\u200910).<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Primary LET is a cost\u2010effective intervention for a wide range of primary and revision surgery costs according to this breakeven economic analysis.
