From: Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction with quadriceps tendon autograft and press-fit fixation using an anteromedial portal technique

Figure 6

The bone block of the graft was flush with the femoral cortex with press-fit fixation. Tibially, a split bone wedge harvested from the tibia the graft was compressed against the bone tunnel wall close to the joint line, furthermore the graft was secured with sutures tied over a bone bridge. The remaining part of the harvested bone plug was stuffed into the tibial tunnel like a cork to close the bone tunnel distally.
