Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Basics: Quadriceps Tendon (All-Soft Tissue) Autograft Harvest-Part 1
Abstract:
Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with quadriceps tendon autograft has become increasingly popular for primary and revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction surgery. Although there are a variety of techniques available for performing quadriceps tendon autograft harvest for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, a minimally invasive, all-soft tissue harvest technique can result in a reproducible, reliable graft while minimizing donor-site morbidity.
