Rectangular-Tunnel Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Using Quadriceps Tendon-Patellar Bone Autograft Can Reduce Early Donor Site Morbidity While Maintaining Comparable Short-term Clinical Outcomes.

In the short-term, rectangular tunnel ACLR was comparable to round tunnel ACLR with QTPB autograft despite the smaller cross-sectional area. Additionally, the rectangular tunnel ACLR allowed partial-thickness grafting technique, which could subsequently reduce early donor site morbidity.
