There has been a lot of focus on the value of anatomic tunnel placement in ACL reconstruction, and the relative merits of single and double bundle grafts. Multiple cadaveric and animal studies have compared the effects of tunnel placement and graft type on knee biomechanics. 45 patients who underwent ACL reconstruction were included into our study. Femoral tunnel position was analysed by two independent doctors using the radiographic quadrant method as described by Bernard et al., and the mean values calculated. Forty-one of these patients completed a KOOS questionnaire. The mean ratio ‘a’ was 26.57% and mean ratio ‘b’ was 30.04% as compared to 24.8% (+/− 2.2%) and 28.5% (+/− 2.5%) respectively quoted by Bernard et.al, as the ideal tunnel position. Only twenty-three of these femoral tunnels were in the anatomic range. Analysis of forty-one KOOS surveys (23 anatomic, 18 non-anatomic) revealed no significant difference in total score or subscales between the anatomic and non-anatomic groups (p= >0.05). Our study suggests that the ideal tunnel position, as described by Bernard et.al. may not be ideal and fixed.
