Abstract
Arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction has been the gold standard of care for ACL injuries for many years. Recently, there has been growing literature and interest in arthroscopic primary ACL repair in select patients with predominantly proximally based ACL tears. This Technical Note demonstrates a surgical technique that offers an efficient minimally invasive and physeal-sparing anatomic ACL repair with all-inside internal brace augmentation that in the short term has offered good results for our patients.
