Abstract
This chapter is a guide to foreign material-free ACL reconstruction with bone dowels with “all press-fit” fixation with a checklist of indications, symptoms, with preoperative and clinical assessment, management in the operation room and postoperative rehabilitation, based on the use of typical grafts: hamstring, quadriceps tendon and patellar bone-tendon-bone.
