Editorial Commentary: Fixation of Soft-Tissue Anterior Cruciate Ligament Grafts in Osteoporotic Bone

摘要

Tibial-side fixation of soft-tissue grafts in osteoporotic bone has become an important concern, as anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction indications push toward older patients. Although soft-tissue fixation with an interference screw and cortical button may be statistically stronger than graft fixation with a screw or button alone, this hybrid construct is probably not optimized from a clinical perspective.
