ISAKOS 2015: The effect of different posterolateral bundle graft fixation angles in DB ACL

90 patients who underwent primary double-bundle ACL reconstruction were included. The anteromedial bundle (AMB) was fixed at 20 degrees and patients were randomly allocated to receive posterolateral bundle (PLB) graft fixation at 0, 20 or 45 degrees of flexion. The purpose of the study was to determine the effect on clinical outcomes with differing PLB graft fixation angles over a 2-year follow-up. Results indicated that fixation of the PLB at 45 degrees was worse than 0 or 20 degrees in anterior and rotational stability and graft failure.
