This article provides an overview of the current concepts regarding anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, including anatomy, biomechanics, operative techniques and clinical results. Many techniques have been introduced for ACL reconstruction: single bundle reconstruction, remnant preserving augmentation, and double bundle reconstruction. Each technique has its strong and weak points, and it is not sure which technique is superior than others. It is considered to suggest that rather than to select the same method of surgery in all patients, select the method of reconstruction depending on the characteristics of the individual patient, the state of the residual ligaments and extent of the damage.
