Excerpt

Several factors need to be taken into account before an ACL reconstruction can be considered “successful,” including patient selection, graft selection, fixation selection, tunnel placement selection, rehabilitation protocol selection, and timing of return to play. In their study, Samuelsen and colleagues shed light on one of these criteria: Graft selection. …
