All-Inside Partial Epiphyseal Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Plus an Associated Modified Lemaire Procedure Sutured to the Femoral Button

We describe a partial epiphyseal ACLR to be done in skeletally immature patients involved in highly demanding sport activities. This technique is performed with an extraphyseal femoral tunnel drilled retrograde, a transphyseal tibial tunnel, and a retrograde tibial drilling without trespassing the tibial physis. We added a modified Lemaire procedure to improve rotational instability to the previously performed ACLR.
