“… 4 , 5 Although considered an invasive surgery, it has been suggested that a slope-decreasing osteotomy is necessary for patients wishing to return to sports or for those who need to restore necessary stability for demanding day-to-day activities after a failed ACLR and who have a tibial slope ≥12°. 4 , 5 , 8 This is because it has been reported that increased tibial slope is directly correlated to increased anterior tibial translation, and has been shown to increase the forces experienced by the native ACL. 1 , 3 , 9 , 10 Clinical studies have supported these biomechanical findings, because an increased tibial slope has been reported to increase the risk of ACL graft failure, namely those ≥12°.…”
