1. In ACL reconstruction latest is the all inside technique. Reputed make is Arthrex (UK) or Smith and Nephew (USA) endobutton and suture wheel is made up of titanium. This is a suspensory method of fixation of ACL graft. I personally prefer the interferential fixation with bio screws, which are made up of hydroxyapatite and are self absorbable, which gets incorporated into the bone, Reputed make is Arthrex (UK) or Smith and Nephew (USA). 2. Success is 100%. 3. ACL reconstruction frees you from instability and gives you a stable knee. Not much known side effects. 4. While travelling you will have to take your medical papers along as implant removal post reconstruction is not done. 5. If one lives a sedentary lifestyle then he may not need ACL reconstruction. But in cases of instability, even routine functions become troublesome.
