Abstract:
More ACL tissue were preserved in ACL reconstruction with remnant-preserving than in classic ACL reconstruction. Some studies showed the results in promoting biological healing after undergoing these two procedures, while other studies did not find the clear advantages in clinical outcomes comparing with the classical ACL reconstruction. There were still some controversies in clinical significances for these complicated ACL reconstructions with remnant-preserving. The article summarized recent original studies about ACL reconstruction with remnant-preserving, as well as reviewed the biological characteristics, classification, procedure and clinical outcomes for these two techniques.
