Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) tears are detrimental to knee stability and normal function. Although the standard of treatment is an ACL reconstruction, technical improvements are sought to enhance clinical outcomes due to the appreciable failure rate. The use of autologous biologic substances as carriers of stem cells are desirable because of their multipotent properties. Traditionally, the collection of autologous bone grafts is through an open incision of the iliac crest, which causes substantial morbidity to the patient. This Technical Note describes an arthroscopic, minimally invasive collection method of autologous tibial and femoral bone graft to use in backfilling the tunnels during an ACL reconstruction to improve graft incorporation and clinical outcomes.
