What graft is best for ACL reconstruction I am 18 and very active and just recently tore my ACL playing football I am getting surgery in three weeks and can't decide between hamstring or patella?
I've had two acl surgeries and am about to have a third. I wouldn't recommend the cadaver reconstruction- too much chance of rejection, longer recovery, and more likely to re-injure. My recommendation would be your hamstring. That's what I did last time and the surgery went great- I had a fast recovery and less pain than my first surgery.
