Surgical technique of anterior cruciate ligament ligamentoplasty with pedicular hamstrings via an inside-out approach: BIOFAST hamstring tendons graft - 15/05/22

Abstract |
This surgical technique of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction uses a 4-stranded hamstring tendons graft (HG), via an inside-out approach with a femoral cortical button and a tibial screw. It offers preservation of the tibial attachment of the hamstrings and enables double tibial fixation: biological and mechanical. This technique, “BIOFAST HG”, does not require any calculation of the length of the tunnels, nor the use of different sized, or adjustable, buttons. If the sliding in the femoral tunnel fails, it is possible to easily convert to a so-called “classic technique”. The first 60 cases were reviewed with a conversion rate of 3%. This technique allows the benefits of a pedicled graft over the classic HG technique in a simple way, with minimal conversions to the classic technique.
