Video Summary
Dr. Jocelyn Wittstein from Duke University School of Medicine presents a detailed procedure for a minimally invasive single-tendon semitendinosus harvest and graft preparation using a suspensory fixation technique. Key steps include identifying anatomical landmarks, making a precise incision, dissecting the tendon, and utilizing techniques to avoid early graft amputation. The semitendinosus tendon is harvested, stripped of muscular tissue, and quadrupled to form the graft. Detailed attention is given to securing the graft with cerclage sutures and sizing for optimal fit, particularly for ACL reconstruction.
