This book provides the reader with the best available evidence on
the most pressing issues relating to reconstruction of the anterior
cruciate ligament (ACL) with the goal of supporting surgical
reconstruction of the ACL and improving outcomes for patients. Key
topics for which evidence-based information is presented include
selection of graft material and source, the use of different
surgical techniques, graft rupture in relation to surgical
technique, and progression to osteoarthritis. The book will aid the
surgeon in making decisions with respect to fixation devices and
tensioning, the bundles to be reconstructed, and whether to
preserve remnants or partial bundle ruptures. An evidence-based
stance is taken on evolving topics such as the anatomy of the
tibial insertion site of the ACL and the role of the anterolateral
capsule and posteromedial corner in high-grade rotatory
instability. Furthermore, novel technical developments for
measurement of knee laxity and soft tissue navigation are
discussed. The reader will also find useful information on general
issues concerning physical examination, arthroscopic setup, timing
of reconstruction, anesthesia, and anticoagulation.
