The extent of posttraumatic osteoarthritis (PTOA) in the porcine ACL transection model is dependent on the surgical treatment of that injury. In a previous study, animals treated with bridge-enhanced ACL repair using a tissue-engineered implant developed less PTOA than those treated with ACL reconstruction. Alterations in gait, including asymmetric weight bearing and shorter stance times, have been noted in clinical studies of subjects with osteoarthritis. Animals receiving a surgical treatment that results in less posttraumatic osteoarthritis (i.e., bridge-enhanced ACL repair) would exhibit fewer post-surgical gait asymmetries over a 1-year period when compared to treatments that result in greater PTOA (i.e., ACL reconstruction and ACL transection). Controlled laboratory study 36 Yucatan minipigs underwent ACL transection and were randomized to: 1) no further treatment, 2) ACL reconstruction, or 3) bridge-enhanced ACL repair. Gait analyses were performed pre-operatively, and at 4, 12, 26 and 52 weeks post-operatively. Macroscopic cartilage assessments were performed following euthanasia at 52 weeks. Knees treated with bridge-enhanced ACL repair had less macroscopic damage in the medial tibial plateau than those treated with ACL reconstruction or ACL transection (P-adj=.03 for both comparisons). The knees treated with bridge-enhanced ACL repair had greater asymmetry in hindlimb maximum force and impulse loading than the knees treated with ACL transection at 52 weeks (P-adj<.05 for both comparisons). There was evidence to show that knees treated with bridge-enhanced ACL repair also had greater asymmetry in hindlimb maximum force and impulse loading (P-adj<.10 for both comparisons) compared to ACL reconstruction. Contrary to our hypothesis, the surgical treatment resulting in the lowest amount of macroscopic cartilage damage exhibited greater asymmetry in load-related gait parameters than the other surgical groups. This finding suggests that increased off-loading of the surgical knee may be associated with a slower rate of PTOA development. Less cartilage damage at 52 weeks was found in the surgical group that continued to protect the limb from full body weight during gait. This finding suggests that protection of the knee from maximum stresses may be important in minimizing the development of PTOA in the ACL-injured knee.
