Popis: The strain between the ACL graft tissue and the osteochondral tissue at the tunnel entrances would lead to postoperative deviation of the femoral and/or tibial insertion of the ACL graft. Postoperative changes of the 3D orientation of the ACL graft affect its physiometry leading to failure of graft tension. A conception of an aimer is suggested to insure straightening of the intraosseous (tibial and femoral) and intra-articular parts of the graft at the tunnel entry point to overcome the postoperative angulation of intraosseous and intra-articular graft parts
