To review the surgical technique, indications, technical pitfalls, and clinical outcomes associated with all-inside anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction.
Evaluation of operative technique utilizing closed-ended bone sockets and suspensory cortical button fixation rather than full-diameter tunnels and screws.
Assessment of graft selection compatibility, including soft tissue, bone plug autografts (hamstring, quadriceps), and allograft tendons.
The all-inside technique facilitates anatomic socket placement, decreased postoperative pain and swelling, minimal hardware requirements, and circumferential graft-to-bone healing.
Biomechanical evaluations and clinical follow-ups demonstrate comparable or superior outcomes relative to traditional full-tunnel ACL reconstruction approaches.
