Task: Intent Identification
Input (English): To evaluate the graft diameter size after one-year follow-up or more of patients Tanner II, III, and IV who were submitted to anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.', 'Ten patients [five males (mean age: 14.4 years) and five females (mean age: 13.6 years)] with open physis and anterior cruciate ligament tear were submitted to transphyseal anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with quadruple hamstrings graft. During the procedure, graft and tunnel size were recorded. After last clinical follow-up (range 1-11 years), an MRI study was requested and their measurements near the tibial tunnel were compared with the graft diameter measured and used during primary procedure.', 'Four patients had Tanner stage II, four patients Tanner stage III, and two Tanner IV. There were statistically significant decreases in the quadruple hamstrings graft diameter size (average of 25.3%). Mean size at time of surgery was 7.9 mm (±0.87), and mean size measured at different points of follow-up evaluation was 5.9 mm (±0.65).
