Anterior Cruciate Ligament Stump Elongation Technique for Anterior Cruciate Ligament Restoration. [PDF]
There is renewed interest in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) preservation techniques. Prior studies have shown good outcomes and low failure rates with ACL preservation in patients with good tissue quality and more proximal tears. We describe a technique intended to assist surgeons in obtaining maximal length of the ACL stump during ACL preservation ...

Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using an anterior cruciate ligament stump.
Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury always leads to knee pain and dysfunction for which surgical reconstruction is recommended, with good clinical results, but decreased postoperative proprioception also tends to occur. ACL stump (ACLS)-retaining ACL reconstruction and non-ACLS-retaining ACL reconstruction are the two surgical options.To ...
