From: Effects of modified trans-tibial versus trans-portal technique on stress patterns around the femoral tunnel in anatomical single-bundle ACL reconstruction with different knee flexion angles using finite element analysis

Fig. 4

Maximal stresses monitored around the inner orifice in the TP group were found to be significantly greater than those in the modified TT group at all flexion angles except 90° of flexion (A). Those around the outer orifice in the TP group also generated significantly greater values than those in the modified TT group at all flexion angles (B). * Denoted statistical significancy (P < 0.05). Maximal stress values in each group at discrete flexion angles were presented as mean ± standard deviation (MPa). Significance lines with p-values represented that the mean maximal stresses at discrete knee flexion angles are significantly different from one another in each group. TP: trans-portal, TT: trans-tibial
