8 pearls for surgical reconstruction of the ACL

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries account for about half the ligamentous injuries to the knee each year, and result in approximately 200,000 ACL reconstructions at a cost of $7.6 billion annually. These injuries are becoming increasingly common, particularly in adolescent athletes, making it important for surgeons to have tools that will help them achieve a successful outcome and avoid a difficult revision procedure.
