The goal of this study was to prove the reliability of computer-aided navigation for the surgical reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) using an arthroscopic procedure. The study involved 50 patients preceded by a learning curve period. Computer-recorded data were compared with specific radiography measurements of the frontal and anteroposterior views. The radiographs were used to measure the position of the tibial tunnel in the frontal and sagittal plane, the angulation of the tibial tunnel in the frontal and sagittal plane, and the position of the femoral tunnel in the lateral condyle.
