Comparison of 3 Techniques for Recreation of Anterior Cruciate Ligament Anatomic Footprint

Three Dimensional Computed Tomography Comparison of the Transtibial, Modified Transtibial and Anteromedial Portal Technique for Recreation of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament Anatomic Footprint

The purpose of this study is to compare the tomographic results of patients who underwent single-bundle anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction at the investigator's institution using the transtibial, accessory medial portal technique and the modified transtibial technique to determine which technique best recreates the anterior cruciate ligament anatomic footprint.

Inclusion Criteria:

• Patients presenting for single bundle ACL reconstruction, with or without associated partial meniscectomy or meniscal repair.
• Skeletally mature patients
• Patients who are able and willing to receive post-operative CT imaging of the affected knee

Exclusion Criteria:

• Previous ACL reconstruction in the studied knee
• Previous ACL injury or reconstruction in the contralateral kneeConcomitant non-ACL ligament reconstruction or osteotomy
