Abstract
Femoral interference screw divergence is a potential pitfall associated with ACL reconstruction through transtibial tunnel technique, as angles greater than 15 jeopardize graft fixation. Our mathematical model theorizes the proper degrees of knee flexion during femoral screw insertion and the correct screwdriver position to obtain a minimal divergence of the screw in the femoral tunnel. The cadaveric study confirms our method.
