Combined Anterior Cruciate Ligament and Anterolateral Ligament Reconstruction Using a Flexible Reaming System.

ABSTRACT: The combination of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and anterolateral ligament (ALL) reconstruction represents a therapeutic modality that exhibits superior clinical efficacy for certain risk groups when compared with isolated ACL reconstruction. This approach is progressively gaining broader applicability owing to its inherent prospective advantages. Despite the absence of a universally acknowledged gold-standard surgical technique, several methods have been delineated for its implementation.
