Abstract
The anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) is critical for knee stability, and its reconstruction is one of the most common orthopedic procedures worldwide. However, despite advancements in surgical techniques, ACL reconstruction failures remain a significant concern, with tunnel misplacement being a primary contributor. This study aims to evaluate the radiological positioning of ACL tunnels and investigate their clinical correlation, focusing on the impact of tunnel placement on postoperative outcomes. With proper tunnel positioning being vital for achieving optimal graft tension and minimizing the risk of complications, this research seeks to provide a comprehensive analysis of the relationship between tunnel placement errors and clinical results, including knee function, stability, and patient recovery. Through this investigation, we hope to enhance surgical precision and improve patient outcomes in ACL reconstruction.



AIM OF THE WORK:

The aim of this study was to evaluate the radiological positioning of tunnels in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction and examine their clinical correlation. Specifically, the research seeks to analyze how variations in tunnel placement affect postoperative outcomes, including knee function, stability, and overall recovery, with the goal of providing insights into the importance of accurate tunnel positioning for improving ACL reconstruction success.
