Abstract
• Anterior cruciate ligament injuries are common in younger age group individuals.
• Males are more prone for anterior cruciate ligament injuries.
• Sports injuries are the commonest cause for anterior cruciate ligament injuries.
• Associated meniscal and chondral lesions increase with duration of the injury
• Arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with hamstring tendon graft is an excellent treatment option for anterior cruciate ligament deficient knees.
• Meniscal injuries do not affect the final outcome in anterior cruciate ligament reconstructed patients in short term follow up.
• Arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction reduces Postoperative morbidity and enables early rehabilitation.
• This study showed that arthroscopic ACL reconstruction with double hamstring tendon graft using all press-fit technique in both femoral and tibial tunnels with bone plugs without the use of any hardware is a reliable, cost-effective technique and represent a good alternative among other options for ACL reconstruction.
• The clinical and functional results of this case Series were comparable to other studies reported in the literature using different fixation methods for ACL reconstruction.
• Advantages of all press-fit fixation include fast bone-to-bone healing, anatomical positioning, ease for revision surgery, and cost effectiveness.
•Further biomechanical and clinical studies especially comparative studies, are needed for better evaluation of the technique.
