consequently, of the graft on the femur.
Biomechanically, it ensures good results if
compared to anatomic double boundles re
construction and other techniques. It represents
a good option for skeletally immature patient
and for revision cases. Finally, it’s an easy
surgery, very reliable and cheap, because it
doesn’t require dedicate instruments.
