Increasing emphasis in the literature is recently being put on controlling rotational stability in patients with an anterior cruciate ligament rupture by addressing the anterolateral complex during anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. Many different techniques for lateral extra-articular tenodesis have been described, with the (modified) Lemaire technique being widely favored. Recent literature does report that lateral extra-articular tenodesis leads to a reduction in persistent rotatory laxity and graft rupture rate, but also may be associated with increased pain, reduced quadriceps strength, reduced subjective functional recovery, and cosmetic complaints. Thus this article aims to describe our minimally invasive technique for a modified Lemaire tenodesis.
