Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) remnant preservation techniques have been recently introduced for covering the graft with remnant to improve the clinical results of ACL reconstruction. Several theoretical advantages exist for this technique; however, clinical results remain inconsistent and controversial. We have focused on the biomechanical function of the remnant and have been performing a new remnant-preserving reconstruction procedure that augments the graft with residual remnant. Preserving the structure and continuity of good-quality remnants may help maintain the early postoperative stress on the tendon graft, thereby providing a positive effect on remodeling. Although our concept is significantly different from previously reported remnant preservation techniques and has several pitfalls, the surgical technique that we outline in this report is simple and does not require specialized equipment. The procedure will also work more advantageously in preserving the residual mechanoreceptors in the remnant. We believe that this method can be a procedure with better results for patients with remnants that are in good condition.
