All-Inside Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Technique: Tips and Tricks.

The all-inside anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) technique was developed to improve patient outcomes by reducing the procedure's invasiveness, minimizing complications and pain, and enabling faster postoperative recovery. This study presents a detailed description of the all-inside ACLR technique, which involves the use of quadrupled semitendinosus (ST) graft and suspension devices at both tibial and femoral sites, as well as valuable tips for avoiding complications that may arise during the procedure. The surgical procedure employs retrograde drills to create bony sockets for graft passage, which are then fixed with suspension devices at both the tibial and femoral sites. This technique has no specific restrictions and may be applied to all patients with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries. The literature reports the advantages, good clinical outcomes, and medium- to long-term graft survival achieved with the all-inside ACLR technique. However, the complications and disadvantages associated with the technique must be considered.
