ABSTRACT

Surgical intervention to repair a torn anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) with autogenous hamstring tendons has become popular. However, hamstring graft harvesting complications can occur. This article presents a case of skin dimpling over the pes anserinus during active hamstring contraction in a 32-year-old man following arthroscopic ACL reconstruction.
