Abstract

Objectives: To report the anatomical characteristics of the ACL in Vietnamese individuals. Subjects and methods: Ten fresh knees were dissected to investigate the anatomical characteristics of ACL. The insertion position, length and diameter of ACL were measured. Results: The average lengths of AM and PL bundle of the ACL were 30.6 mm and 25.6 mm, respectively. The average sizes of the femoral and tibial ACL attachment sites were 13.8 × 10.6 mm and 13.4 × 10.2 mm, respectively.
