Video Summary

In this video, Dr. Lee discusses the use of quad autograft for ACL reconstruction. He presents a case of a 29-year-old female soccer player who suffered an ACL tear and discusses the factors that influence graft choice. He explains the advantages and disadvantages of quad autograft and highlights the historical perspective of its use. He discusses the anatomy and vascular supply of the quad tendon, as well as the biomechanics and clinical outcomes associated with quad autograft.
