The sagittal cutting plane affects evaluation of the femoral bone tunnel position on three-dimensional computed tomography after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction

ConclusionIn evaluations of the bone tunnel position with the quadrant method using three-dimensional CT, the bone tunnel position depends on the femoral sagittal cutting plane. A consistent evaluation method should be used when evaluating the bone tunnel position after ACL reconstruction to enable correct evaluation clinically.Level of evidenceCase –control study, Level III.
