About this trial

This study aims to develop and validate a predictive model for estimating the diameter of a quadrupled rectus femoris tendon graft used in anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction. By analyzing patient anthropometric characteristics and intraoperative tendon measurements, we aim to identify reliable predictors of graft size to improve preoperative planning and surgical decision-making.
