Optimal Knee Flexion Angle for ACL Femoral Tunnel Drilling and ALL Femoral Tunnel Orientation in Combined ACL and ALL Reconstruction: 3D Simulation Study
This study provides practical guidelines for surgeons by identifying a safe range of knee flexion angles for ACL femoral tunnel creation using the transportal technique and optimal ALL femoral tunnel orientations. Applying these results may improve tunnel integrity, and enhance the success of combined ligament reconstructions.
