Overview
Accurate ideal graft tunnel positioning is essential for the successful application of anatomic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. The accurate insertion of the tibial tunnel (TT) and femoral tunnel (FT) remain a challenge. A robotic assisted new strategy for drill TT and FT in ACL reconstruction will be performed and its efficacy and accuracy will be assess. The investigators will prospectively include 30 patients with ACL rupture requiring surgical treatment. The reconstruction will be performed with hamstring tendon graft or patellar tendon graft. The femoral and tibial tunnels placement will be guided by the Rosa robot (Zimmer®).
