AbstractClinical outcomes after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR) have improved remarkably. However, residual rotational instability of the knee joint remains a major concern. The anterolateral ligament (ALL) has recently gained interest as a secondary stabilizer of knee joint rotatory instability, and this has led to the attempt of ALL reconstruction (ALLR) in combination with ACLR to restore rotational stability in patients with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury. Although several techniques for ALLR have recently been introduced, the ideal graft type and surgical technique for combined ACLR and ALLR are yet to be established. This technical note therefore aimed at introducing a novel surgical procedure involving the use of a single Achilles tendon allograft as a relatively simple and minimally invasive procedure for combined ALL and ACL reconstruction.
