Not Applicable

Completed

• Conditions: Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
• Interventions: Procedure: Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction

• Registration Number: NCT02795247
• Lead Sponsor: OrthoCarolina Research Institute, Inc.

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to compare the tomographic results of patients who underwent single-bundle anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction at the investigator's institution using the transtibial, accessory medial portal technique and the modified transtibial technique to determine which technique best recreates the anterior cruciate ligament anatomic footprint.
