Double-bundle versus single-bundle anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.

According to the 20 prospective, randomized studies found from the English literature and included into this review, 6 studies (30%) did not find any significant differences in the clinical results between double-bundle and single-bundle anterior cruciate ligament reconstructions. However, 14 studies (70%) reported significantly better results with the double-bundle technique than with the single-bundle technique. In addition, none of the studies found that the single-bundle technique had better results in any of these evaluations than the double-bundle technique.
