- Abstract
- The use of autologous quadrupled hamstring tendon graft is a well-known technique for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. In cases where the diameter of the graft is inadequate, the stability of graft fixation and subsequent bone to tendon healing may be compromised. We describe a new technique to augment the autologous double looped hamstring tendon graft during anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using cancellous bone chips. This simple technique effectively enhances graft fixation and stability.
