Pearls and Pitfalls of the Technique

Pearls • Use a double-stranded semitendinosus graft
• Place Vicryl sutures (Ethicon) every 2 cm along the graft to maintain integrity
• Use a FiberWire suture (Arthrex), attached to the posterior part of the graft, to pull the graft along the joint through the posterolateral portal
• For the prevention of graft malpositioning, apply mild tension to the graft using the FiberWire suture (Arthrex) while securing the graft to the decorticated acetabular rim using Knotless SutureTak anchors (Arthrex)
Pitfalls • Improper placing of anchors
• Improper suture management
