Two-incision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction uses an outside-in femoral drilling technique. Advantages include anatomic femoral tunnel placement and increased versatility with regard to graft position and fixation in the femoral tunnel or distal femur. The authors believe that transtibial femoral tunnel drilling is inferior because of nonanatomic femoral tunnel placement and the requirement of the posterior footprint placement of the tibial tunnel. Indications for outside-in femoral…

All-epiphyseal Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction in Skeletally Immature Patients
TLDR
Although longer-term followup will be necessary, this technique provides for an anatomic all-epiphyseal-based ACL reconstruction using intraoperative 3-D imaging to minimize the risk of growth disturbance.
Medial portal technique for single-bundle anatomical Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) reconstruction
TLDR
The advantages of the medial portal technique, indications for the technique, patient positioning, proper portal placement, anatomical femoral and tibial tunnel placement, graft tensioning and fixation, allows consistent anatomical ACL tunnel placement are described.

TLDR
Preoperative recognition of patients with existing tunnel overlap and severe tunnel lysis will allow appropriate surgical planning and patient counseling, optimizing patient outcome.

Anterior Cruciate Ligament Revision Reconstruction
TLDR
Anatomical anterior cruciate ligament revision reconstruction provides satisfactory midterm results as far as stability and function of the knee are concerned and a significant progression of osteoarthritis is revealed.

TLDR
Patients preferred the endoscopic technique because the result was more cosmetic and aggressive rehabilitation could be accomplished without the assistance of a physical therapist, and objective stability could not be restored in about 10% of knees with either technique.
Anatomic Revision ACL Reconstruction
TLDR
It is the belief that anatomic restoration of ACL anatomy in the revision setting is best accomplished using the double-bundle technique in the majority of cases.

TLDR
Several factors must be considered during pediatric and adolescent ACL reconstruction, each of which will be examined in this manuscript, including: status of the physis, reconstruction technique, and graft source.

TLDR
The results of these anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction revision surgeries are close to those achieved by other series of primary reconstructions with a little less satisfactory results.
