Popis: Objective: The aim of the study was to compare the outcomes of the transtibial and anatomical femoral single tunnel surgical techniques in ACL reconstruction. Methods: A total of 30 patients, with 16 patients (15 males and 1 female; mean age: 27.2 ± 7.04) with anatomical femoral single-tunnel technique (AFT) and 14 (12 males and 2 females; mean age: 29.4 ± 8.82) with transtibial technique (TT) were included into the study. All patients were evaluated with isokinetic tests at an angular velocity of 60°/s and 180°/s and the IKDC and Lysholm tests were performed preoperatively and in third, sixth, and 12th months postoperatively. The results were compared between the groups. The mean follow-up time was 17.1 ± 6.48 months. Results: Postoperative third month changes in extension parameters of peak torque (AFT: −93.286, TT: −61.500), peak work (AFT: −77.071, TT: −47.500), peak torque ext/kg (AFT: −1.182, TT: −0.773), peak work ext/kg (AFT: −0.982, TT: −0.604), peak work (AFT: −55.143 TT: −33.063) at an angular velocity of 60°/s and postoperative third month change in extension parameter of peak power (AFT: −86.786 TT: −54.875) at an angular velocity of 180°/s were found to be better in the transtibial group (p
