Fortythree patients underwent ACL reconstruction and were prospectively randomized into two groups 20 patients in the experimental group group A with adult noncultivated bone marrow stem cells and 23 patients in the control group group B without adult noncultivated bone marrow stem cells All patients underwent MRI of the knee at three months after surgery to evaluate the signaltonoise ratio of the interzoneAdult noncultivated bone marrow stem cells do not seem to accelerate grafttobone healing in ACL reconstruction The clinical relevance of this finding is that adult noncultivated bone marrow stem cells apparently have a limited role in ACL reconstruction
