IC 206: Anterior Cruciate Ligament Repair: Modern-day Techniques and their Role in Today's ACL Toolbox

Course Description:

There is a renewed interest in modern primary ACL repair as new arthroscopic techniques and selective patient-focused algorithms, considering tear type and tissue quality, have been adopted. Grounded in lessons learned from the historical outcomes and the most recent results of contemporary selective ACL primary repair (ACLPR), this ICL discusses the differences in the latest innovative approaches and the relevance of suture augmentation. Additionally, this ICL will review the role of the ALL and LET and the potential role of biologic augmentation. Included in this discussion will be a review of technical pitfalls and pearls. Upon conclusion of the course, participants will have a broad understanding of the available approaches for modern-day ACL repair, including indications and techniques, to further enhance their surgical skill set in the modern-day ACL toolbox.

By the end of this course, participants should be able to:
  • Identify pre-operative indications and limitations of modern-day ACL repair approaches
  • Have a significantly enhanced comprehension of the pearls and pitfalls of each surgical option
  • Confidently counsel patients and discuss the latest concepts and applications of ACL repair to indicate the optimal patient-specific ACL treatment approach
