Abstrak

A technique for augmentation of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) with hamstring graft and lateral extra-articular tenodesis is presented. The patient is positioned supine with the knee flexed 90°. First, intra-articular injuries are addressed arthroscopically, and then autologous hamstring tendons are harvested and measured; the present technique is a resource for cases with a very small graft diameter (less than 8 mm), due to thin tendons or to tendon breakage, even after tripling the hamstring graft, which is prepared using a facia lata strip long enough to fit the lengths of the femoral tunnel, the anterior cruciate ligament graft, and the tibial tunnel. A single femoral tunnel is performed and only 2 interference screws are needed for fixation.
