Abstract
More than 100,000 anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstructions are performed annually in the United States and one of the most common autografts for ACL reconstruction (ACLR) is the HS tendons. Nevertheless, proper HS harvest can be challenging, and several complications can be encountered, including, iatrogenic neurovascular damage, premature amputation of the tendons, graft contamination, and postoperative hematoma. The aim of this technical note is to describe a safe and effective technique for autologous HS tendon harvest in ACLR.
