Extra-articular braking model. In the CAM group, a 2–0 nylon suture was passed through the tibial bone tunnel posterior to the condyle of the distal end of the femur to control anterior tibial translation and was then tied to the joint to prevent abnormal tibial translation without restriction of knee flexion. ACL, anterior cruciate ligament. CAM, controlled abnormal movement
