Intra articular length (IAL) of the graft has not been measured yet in anatomic, single bundle, anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. Especially in the all-inside ACL reconstruction technique, the IAL of the graft is of great importance due to the philosophy of the technique and the risk of graft "bottoming out". We present a simple arthroscopic measurement of the IAL of the ACL graft in anatomic, single bundle ACL reconstruction, that will allow optimal application of the all-inside technique.
