Robotic assistance for ACL reconstruction surgery

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This study evaluates a robotic-assisted technique for accurately positioning graft tunnels during anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction surgery. It aims to improve the precision of tibial and femoral tunnel placements using the Rosa robot. A total of 30 patients with ACL injuries will be included, and the effectiveness of this robotic approach will be assessed. The surgeries will utilize either hamstring tendon or patellar tendon grafts.
