Abstract
A 42-year-old office worker was sent to the clinic for a second opinion by an orthopaedic surgeon from another hospital. At the age of 18, she had an ACL reconstruction using the extended Macintosh technique where a strip IT band is mobilised and left attached distally, passed through a tibial tunnel round the back of the lateral femoral condyle, and anchored to it with a screw and ligament washer.
