Excerpt

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction is a commonly performed procedure. However, although rare, surgical complications such as fractures of the patella, patellar tendon rupture, loss of motion, and hardware failure may occur, which can significantly affect their outcomes [1‐3]. …
