Excerpt

Over the last two decades, surgical techniques for soft tissue repair and reconstruction have dramatically improved, but changes in technique have been very frequent especially for ACL reconstruction. Surprisingly, the majority of these changes have more often been “market-driven” rather than scientifically supported. However, you can argue that the ACL double bundle reconstruction technique has recently allowed for the “re-discovery” of the anatomical landmark of the native ACL. While this is correct, our outcomes have remained fairly steady over the past 15 years [1, 2]. …
