Area of Science:

  • Orthopedics
  • Sports Medicine
  • Knee Surgery

Background:

  • Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are common in athletes.
  • Management of ACL-deficient knees often involves surgical reconstruction.
  • Extra-articular tenodesis is an evolving surgical technique.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide an update on lateral extra-articular tenodesis (LET).
  • To inform orthopedic surgeons about LET in ACL-deficient knees.
  • To review the current role, techniques, and outcomes of LET.

Main Methods:

  • Literature review of published studies on LET.
  • Analysis of historical data and current surgical techniques.
  • Synthesis of outcomes from relevant clinical research.
