Arthroscopic ACL reconstruction is the standard treatment for symptomatic tears to restore knee stability and function. The all-inside ACL reconstruction technique using hamstring autograft has gained popularity because of its minimally invasive nature and preservation of bone stock. This study aimed to prospectively evaluate the short-term functional outcomes of all-inside ACL reconstruction using hamstring autograft in patients with complete ACL tears.\n\nMaterials and Methods: This prospective study was conducted at Gandhi Medical College, Bhopal, and associated Hamidia Hospital. Thirty-six patients aged 18\u201350 years with clinically and radiologically confirmed ACL tears were included. All patients underwent arthroscopically assisted all-inside ACL reconstruction using hamstring autograft. Pre-operative evaluation included clinical examination, radiological assessment, and functional scoring using Lysholm\u2013Tegner score, International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) score, and Visual Analog Scale. Patients were followed at 1, 3, and 6 months postoperatively to assess stability and functional outcomes.\n\nResults: Most patients were aged 18\u201329 years, and male patients predominated. Road traffic accidents were the most common mechanism of injury. Most surgeries were performed within 1\u20133 months after injury. The majority of grafts measured 6\u20136.5 cm in length with an 8 mm diameter. Post-operative evaluation showed negative Lachman, anterior drawer, and pivot shift tests in all patients, with no varus or valgus instability. Most patients achieved excellent or good Lysholm\u2013Tegner scores, whereas IKDC grading showed normal or near-normal knee function in all cases.\n\nConclusion: All-inside ACL reconstruction using hamstring autograft provides good short-term functional outcomes with restoration of knee stability in patients with complete ACL tears.\n\nKeywords: Anterior cruciate ligament, all-inside anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, hamstring autograft, arthroscopic surgery, knee instability, functional outcome.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.13107\/jocr.2026.v16.i05.7308","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,14]],"date-time":"2026-05-14T13:43:57Z","timestamp":1778766237000},"page":"379-386","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["All-Inside Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction: A Minimally Invasive Bone Preserving Approach with Promising Functional Outcomes"],"prefix":"10.13107","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Deependra","family":"Dubey","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics, SRVS Medical College, Shivpuri, Madhya Pradesh, India,"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Arvind","family":"Karoria","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics, SRVS Medical College, Shivpuri, Madhya Pradesh, India,"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Abhishek","family":"Sisodia","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics, SRVS Medical College, Shivpuri, Madhya Pradesh, India,"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Soham","family":"Bera","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Orthopaedics, Tamralipto Government Medical College and Hospital, Tamluk, West Bengal, India,"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Vishnu Kumar","family":"Gupta","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Community Medicine, SRVS Medical College, Shivpuri, Madhya Pradesh, India,"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Parul","family":"Nema","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Pathology, SRVS Medical College, Shivpuri, Madhya Pradesh, India."}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"5271","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026]]},"container-title":["Journal of Orthopaedic Case Reports"],"original-title":[],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2026,5,14]],"date-time":"2026-05-14T13:43:58Z","timestamp":1778766238000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/jocr.co.in\/wp\/2026\/05\/all-inside-anterior-cruciate-ligament-reconstruction-a-minimally-invasive-bone-preserving-approach-with-promising-functional-outcomes\/"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2026]]},"references-count":0,"journal-issue":{"issue":"5","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026]]},"published-print":{"date-parts":[[2026]]}},"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.13107\/jocr.2026.v16.i05.7308","relation":{},"ISSN":["2321-3817"],"issn-type":[{"value":"2321-3817","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2026]]}}}
