Endoscopic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction: a modified technique for graft passage

This article describes a simple technique for graft passage during endoscopic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. A 0.62 Kirschner wire is used to create a composite graft from either an Achilles tendon allograft or bone--patellar tendon--bone graft. This composite graft is then passed (linearly) from the tibial tunnel to the femoral tunnel without disturbing the soft tissue in the lateral thigh.
