Influence of femoral tunnel exit on the 3D graft bending angle in anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction

Abstract Purpose To quantify the influence of the femoral tunnel exit (FTE) on the graft bending angle (GBA) and GBA-excursion throughout a full range of motion (ROM) in single-bundle anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. Methods Three-dimensional (3D) surface models of five healthy knees...
