Abstract

The surgical technique of Endobutton (Acufex Microsurgical, Inc, Mansfield, MA) button fixation for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction is described. This technique avoids the potential pitfalls of interference screw fixation, avoids a second incision, and is adaptable to a variety of graft materials (autograft or allograft bone-patellar tendon-bond and hamstring).
