At least 10-mm width of BPTB autograft is needed to achieve this concept; however, it is larger than one-third of the patellar tendon width for small or middle physique patients. This study aimed to assess the clinical and radiographic outcomes of BPTB and gracilis (G) composite autografts for primary double-bundle ACL reconstruction in Asian athletes. Thirty-two Asian patients undergoing double-bundle ACL reconstruction with 7.0 to 7.5\u2009mm of BPTB and 5.0 to 5.5\u2009mm of G composite grafts were compared with 43 double-bundle ACL reconstruction with hamstring graft cases. The BPTB graft was used for the anteromedial bundle (AMB), with the G graft for the posterolateral bundle (PLB). Percentage of femoral bone tunnel enlargement compared with the original size was determined by computed digital radiographs on the first postoperative day and at 12 months in the anteroposterior (AP) and lateral views. Standard clinical evaluations, including the limb symmetry index (LSI), were also performed. Less PLB tunnel enlargement was found in the BPTB\u2009+\u2009G group than in the hamstring group in the AP (101.9\u2009\u00b1\u200922.9 vs.113.7\u2009\u00b1\u200920.6%, p\u2009=\u20090.031) and lateral views (104.4\u2009\u00b1\u200918.1 vs. 120.6\u2009\u00b1\u200923.4%, p\u2009&lt;\u20090.01).There was no significant difference between the groups in 12-month postoperative clinical outcomes (Lysholm's score, Tegner's activity level scale, and International Knee Documentation Committee subjective knee evaluation score).The side-to-side difference was significantly less in the BPTB\u2009+\u2009G group (0.2\u2009\u00b1\u20091.3 vs. 0.9\u2009\u00b1\u20091.1\u2009mm, p\u2009=\u20090.026). Despite the small sizes of the BPTB and G grafts, there was no significant difference in the knee extensor LSI between the groups (92.9\u2009\u00b1\u200910.1 vs. 93.3\u2009\u00b1\u200912.2%, p\u2009=\u20090.707), whereas the knee flexor LSI was significantly higher in the BPTB\u2009+\u2009G group (97.7\u2009\u00b1\u200914.8 vs. 90.1\u2009\u00b1\u200913.3%, p\u2009=\u20090.033). Double-bundle ACL reconstruction with a small size BPTB and G composite graft procedure provided good clinical outcomes and significantly less femoral bone tunnel enlargement than the hamstring procedure 12 months after surgery. It is thus a useful surgical option for ACL-deficient Asian athletes. This study reflects level of evidence
