Video Summary
In the video, the speaker discusses anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction in young, active patients. They mention that there is a high risk of re-rupture and infection in these patients, so graft choice is important. They suggest using the bone-patellar-tendon-bone (BTB) or quadriceps tendon grafts, with a preference for increased use of quadriceps tendon. The surgical technique involves preparing the bone blocks on the tibia and patella, creating holes, protecting the tendon, and fixing the graft with screws. They also mention performing lateral extraticular tenodesis and provide tips for both BTB and quadriceps tendon techniques. The speaker emphasizes the importance of post-surgery rehabilitation and recommends a return to sports no earlier than one year.
