Recently, favorable outcomes of primary anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) repair have been reported in patients with proximal tears and good tissue quality. If the tear involves the midsubstance of the ACL fibers or Sherman type II or III injury, independent primary repair will cause a higher failure rate at long-term follow-up. For these cases, we conduct primary repair and apply an internal brace and single-bundle reconstruction as hybrid augmentation. This hybrid repair technique encourages natural healing of the primary ligament by the internal brace and single-bundle graft as a provisional scaffold during the healing phase, as well as early mobilization. We describe our ACL hybrid repair technique, using a video and illustrations.
