Femoral offset aimer use is not associated with improved anatomic accuracy in hamstring ACL reconstruction: A 3D‐CT study

Journal of Experimental Orthopaedics, Volume 13, Issue 3, July 2026.
Postoperative 3D‐CT assessment of femoral and tibial tunnel positioning after hamstring ACL reconstruction. The femoral offset aimer was associated with a more posterior femoral tunnel position, but did not improve anatomic accuracy; surgeon experience showed no association with tunnel accuracy.

All‐inside meniscal repair using polyether ether ketone versus all‐suture anchors: No difference in failure rates at three‐follow‐up in a retrospective cohort of 2253 patients

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, Volume 34, Issue 7, Page 2427-2432, July 2026.
Abstract Purpose To compare mid‐term failure rates of next‐generation all‐inside meniscal repair using polyether ether ketone (PEEK) anchors versus all‐suture anchors in a large patient cohort. The null hypothesis was that there would be no difference in failure rates between PEEK and all‐suture anchors.
