Advantages of using Double-Bundle over Single-Bundle ACL Reconstruction Surgery

There is a significant amount of scientific evidence supporting double bundle surgery:

The ACL is composed of two functional bundles, the anteromedial (AM) bundle and the posterolateral (PL) bundle, not just one.

Between 10% and 30% of patients complain of pain and residual instability following Single-Bundle ACL reconstruction.

Arthritis has been observed on x-rays in up to 90% of patients at long-term follow-up after Single-Bundle ACL reconstruction.

Single-Bundle ACL reconstruction does not adequately restore normal knee stability, particularly tibial rotation

Anatomic Double-Bundle reconstruction better restores knee stability compared to Single-Bundle reconstruction.
