1 Surgical Adjustment of the Guide Pin to Perform a Correct Tibial Tunnel in Anatomical Anterior Cruciate Ligament Single-Bundle Reconstruction  Bharath S. Kumar, M.D., Renato Andrade, B.Sc., Ana Leal, M.Sc., André Sarmento, M.D., Hélder Pereira, M.D., Nuno Sevivas, M.D., João Espregueira-Mendes, M.D., Ph.D.  Arthroscopy Techniques  Volume 5, Issue 4, Pages e757-e762 (August 2016) DOI: /j.eats Copyright © 2016 Arthroscopy Association of North America Terms and Conditions

2 Fig 1 Identification and measurement of the tibial anterior cruciate ligament footprint—arthroscopic view (A) and phantom representation (B). The dimension marker shows the length of the footprint.

4 Fig 3 A small tunnel is made with a 4.5-mm reamer—arthroscopic view (A) and phantom representation (B). The smaller dotted circle indicates the new 4.5-mm tunnel in relation to the footprint size (larger circle).

5 Fig 4 Adjustment of the guide pin to the correct position of the center of the tibial footprint—arthroscopic view (A) and phantom representation (B). Arthroscopy Techniques 2016 5, e757-e762DOI: ( /j.eats ) Copyright © 2016 Arthroscopy Association of North America Terms and Conditions

6 Fig 5 Correction of the guide pin within the north, south, west, and east poles. Arthroscopy Techniques 2016 5, e757-e762DOI: ( /j.eats ) Copyright © 2016 Arthroscopy Association of North America Terms and Conditions

7 Fig 6 Fixation of the guide pin to the femoral roof top—arthroscopic view (A) and phantom representation (B). The arrows indicate the fixation of the guide pin. Arthroscopy Techniques 2016 5, e757-e762DOI: ( /j.eats ) Copyright © 2016 Arthroscopy Association of North America Terms and Conditions

8 Fig 7 Overdrill to achieve the final tunnel in the anatomic position—arthroscopic view (A) and phantom representation (B). The circle indicates the final tunnel with the same size as the tibial footprint.
