aAll values except those in the last column are percentages. Results presented for sagittal projections of the femur and tibia plus frontal projection of the tibia. at/AP, position of the tibial tunnel relative to the anteroposterior length; d/D, position of the femoral tunnel relative to the depth of the Blumensaat line; h/H, position of the femoral tunnel relative to the lateral wall height; mt/mL, position of the tibial tunnel relative to the mediolateral width of the tibial plateau. Dashes (—) indicate no data available.
