repeat revision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction remains a challenge for orthopedic surgeons

The re-revision of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (aclr) can be contemplated a secure and efficacious surgical technique with good results, whether it is performed in one -stage or two-stages or is performed with autograft or allograft. with reg ard to the surgical technique, there is no evidence that performing aclr in one stage is superior to performing it in two stages. with respect to graft choice, allograft is the most chosen, and the allograft most frequently utilized is the achilles tendon. however, the best graft to use for re-revision is not yet known. for revision aclr orthopedic surgeons have to contemplate the amendment of an outrageous posterior tibial slope, especially after having failed two or more consecutive interventions. the potential benefit of combining aclr with an anterolateral ligament reconstruction is to achieve greater rotational stability. it will diminish both the elevated failure percentages observed specifically in young individuals and increasing osteoarthritic chang es encountered following sole aclr. level of evidence: iii
