ABSTRACT
Optimal femoral anterior cruciate ligament graft placement has been extensively studied. The champions of transtibial reconstruction debate the backers of anteromedial portal and outside-in drilling. The holy grail is footprint restoration and how we best to get there. To me, creating the femur independently provides the best chance of finding that footprint by being unconstrained by the tibia. Anterior cruciate ligament surgery is challenging enough; decrease intraoperative stress and increase your likelihood of femoral footprint restoration by drilling it though the anteromedial portal.
