Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) injury is now the most debatable ligamentous injury. It has been widely researched over the last 25 years all over the world. Over the last few decades, ACL repair surgery has advanced significantly. Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) is a well-accepted and well-established surgical treatment for ACL injuries that are becoming more popular worldwide. The timing of restoration and rehabilitation is critical for a successful outcome. Because each type of transplant has distinct benefits and drawbacks, it is critical to carefully pick the graft for each patient. Ultimately, the surgical procedure should adhere to the fundamental principles of ACL biomechanics and anatomy to ensure proper graft location and a positive clinical result. The present review of literature provides the comprehensive search (various databases such as PubMed, PubMed central, google, google scholar, Scopus, science-direct, etc.) ranging from its history, mechanism, clinical examination, and reconstruction of ACL to its latest development.
