The patient referred to our knee clinic and was operated on in two stages: first fixation of the fracture and then ACL re-revision after fracture healing was complete. Conclusions: Not inserting multiple guide pins, keeping a safe distance from the posterior cortex and giving more attention during graft tensioning, especially in revision surgeries, are all small points that can reduce the risk of fracture during the revision of ACL reconstruction}, keywords = {Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL),complication,Condylar fracture,Revision reconstruction}, url = {https://abjs.mums.ac.ir/article_3940.html}, eprint = {https://abjs.mums.ac.ir/article_3940_65e7119112ade3ab8aaf5928df8bab79.pdf} }
