Abstract
Average surgeons may struggle with the anteromedial (AM) portal technique for creating the anterior cruciate ligament femoral socket. The AM portal technique is technically challenging. The AM portal technique demonstrates better surgeon-recorded stability than the transtibial technique, but no clinical differences according to a review of published, comparative research studies.
