Determination of spatial position of tibial graft using X-ray images after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction

Background/Aim. Anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction is one of the most commonly performed knee surgeries in young adults. The success this procedure largely depends on proper formation tunnel, which obtained by drilling tibia and serves to position fix graft. aim study was present a method for determining spatial graft based only two standard X-rays. Methods. group 15 patients whom developed software applied measurement angle tunnel selection characteristic points X-rays (anterior-posterior lateral projection). results were compared with measuring images computed tomography (CT) all patients. Results. measured CT scans was, average, some-what greater (59.07? ? 5.61?) than applying application (58.65? 5.89?). indicated minimal differences without statistical significance measurements using (Wilcoxon test: Z = -1.363; p 0.173). Conclusion. presented are suitable everyday clinical applications terms precision usability can be used assess tunnels process surgery or preparing revision surgery.
