Rupture of the anterior cruciate ligament is a common injury. Correct diagnosis and patient selection, along with proper surgical technique, with careful attention to anatomic graft placement, followed by attention to proper rehabilitation, leads to predictably good to excellent results. This article reviews the recognition and avoidance of complications associated with bone–patellar tendon–bone contructs of anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.
