Abstract
We describe a bone-hamstring autograft for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR). The semitendinosus and gracilis tendons are harvested using an open tendon stripper, keeping these distal tibial insertions intact. The bone-hamstring autograft is harvested using an oscillating saw. This modified autograft has the following advantages: (1) It possesses the potential for healing with the femur owing to its bone plug; (2) it is perfectly suited for various single-bundle reconstruction methods including oval-tunnel and rectangular-tunnel ACLR, as well as other flat ACLR methods; and (3) it is an attractive option for both primary ACLR and revision ACLR owing to its unique characteristics.
