Video Summary
The video discusses a surgical technique for ACL reconstruction in children with open growth plates. The technique involves using an over-the-top position on the femoral side, which has been shown to have good anatomical accuracy. The procedure minimizes risks to the growth plates by using a small tibial tunnel and soft tissue graft. The video demonstrates the surgical process, including the harvesting of the hamstring, preparation of the graft, insertion of the graft into the knee joint, and fixation on both the femoral and tibial sides. Post-operative rehabilitation is similar to adults, but the return to sport is less aggressive. No credits were mentioned in the video.
