How Important is the Tunnel Position in Outcomes Post-ACL Reconstruction: A 3D CT-Based Study.

Background: Drilling the femoral and tibial tunnels at their anatomical locations are critical for good outcomes and involve seeing the footprints well. We intended to compare two techniques of drilling the tunnels and the patient-reported outcomes and knee stability of patients undergoing single bundle ACL reconstruction using 3D CT to evaluate if the tunnels were anatomical or not.

Materials And Methods: Sixty single bundle ACL reconstructions were analyzed, 30 each with Technique A and B.
