Muscle strength recovery of the BTB reconstructed knees in relation to the preoperative normal knees was investigated. No significant difference was noted in the quadriceps muscle strength between the two groups at 5 months (Quad.: 88.8 ± 19.5% in the C-BTB vs. 81.5 ± 19.1% in the I-BTB; p = 0.38, Ham.: 124.9 ± 9.5% in the C-BTB vs. 120.9 ± 24.0% in the I-BTB; p = 0.48) and 12 months (Quad.: 97.4 ± 8.4% in the C-BTB vs. 109.7 ± 18.3% in the I-BTB; p = 0.12, Ham.: 112.1 ± 12.8% in the C-BTB vs. 122.7 ± 34.6% in the I-BTB; p = 0.12) after surgery
