Sumario:In recent years, repair of the injured anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) has been subject to a renewed interest as novel arthroscopic techniques have been developed. Specifically, the bridge-enhanced ACL repair is a technique composed of a resorbable protein-based implant combined with autologous blood that is used to bridge the gap between 2 torn edges of a mid-substance ACL tear. This implant is believed to help facilitate healing of a primary suture repair and suture cinch and has since demonstrated noninferiority to ACL reconstruction with autograft at 2-year follow-up. The purpose of this Technical Note is to describe a step-by-step surgical technique of a mid-substance ACL repair using the bridge-enhanced ACL repair system in a case with a concomitant lateral meniscus radial repair
