Transportal Vs All-Inside Technique in Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction
Introduction: The principle of anatomic Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction (ACLR) is to create a femoral and tibial tunnel that resembles the insertion of the Native Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL). The aim of this study is to investigate the best method to achieve anatomical reconstruction of femoral and tibial tunnel insertion of the ACL and thus, a more horizontal orientation of the ACL. Methods: A literature study was undertaken using PubMed, Medline, Google Scholar, and EMBASE up to November 2022 to discover articles concentrating on AIT and TPT of ACL repair. Results: When compared to traditional ACL reconstruction surgery, AIT is a good choice for conserving bone tissue and gracilis tendon resulting in less discomfort following surgery, higher knee flexor strength, and similar outcomes. TPT had no negative effect on graft healing. In addition, TPT in ACL reconstruction showed similar femoral tunnel positions and clinical outcomes. Acceptable graft healing and clinical outcomes can be obtained for TPT in ACL reconstruction
