Press‐Fit‐Hybrid Technique for Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction With Autologous Hamstring Tendons

Arthroscopic‐assisted anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction follows standardized protocols. Multiple fixation techniques are known. Discussion has been raised about osseus fixation and integration. To improve a biological osseous fixation of the anterior cruciate ligament transplant, a Press‐Fit‐Hybrid technique has been developed. The basic principle is to recycle bony cylinders obtained from the femoral and tibial tunnel to fix the transplant in the femoral and tibial tunnel. In addition to the biological advantage, there are additional economic benefits, such as no extra fixation material is necessary compared with common fixation techniques, and the overall surgical procedure requires minimal effort.
