Evaluation of Tibial and Femoral Tunnel Position After Arthroscopic Reconstruction of the Anterior Cruciate Ligament

Phase 2

Completed

• Conditions: Anterior Cruciate Ligament Rupture
• Interventions: Procedure: Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction

• Registration Number: NCT01267435
• Lead Sponsor: Isfahan University of Medical Sciences

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the accuracy of tunnel positions in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction

Detailed Description

The tunnel placement in ACL reconstruction is the most important predictor of clinical outcome and there is a high rate of inaccurate tunnel placements, even when performed by experienced surgeons.Tibial and femoral tunnel positions are one of the major concerns in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction which have a great impact on the final surgical results
