【Abstract】 Objective To introduce several navigation systems in anterior cruciate l igament reconstruction
and to investigate the appl ication of navigation systems for the improvement in reconstruction of the anterior cruciatel igament. Methods The related l iterature was reviewed extensively, and the main current computer assisted surgery systems(OthoPilot system, Bone Morphing system, Fluoroscopic-based system, etc) for util ization in the anterior cruciate l igament reconstructionwere analyzed. Results The computer-assisted systems can enhance the accurate placement of tunnels. Accordingto the anatomical and isometric parameters, graft impingement on the intercondylar notch could be avoided, and individualideal implantation using 3D visual ization local isers was achieved. Conclusion It is possible that computer-assisted systemswill enable surgeons to better acquire the accuracy and rel iabil ity of the various operative techniques, to meet the demand ofsurgeon’s surgical optimisation and to improve the cl inical results.
