Abstract
Fixation of the graft during anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction surgery has been the subject of numerous technical innovations but still remains a challenge. This article describes a novel technique of graft fixation for hamstring tendon reconstruction: the Cage For One system (Sacimex, Aix-en-Provence, France). The technique uses only the semitendinosus tendon, which is looped to create a 4-strand graft. Leaving the gracilis tendon intact probably reduces the loss of knee flexion strength. The graft is indirectly anchored into both tunnels with polyetheretherketone cages by use of polyethylene terephthalate tape strips. Both cages and strips are magnetic resonance imaging compatible and do not create artifacts. The tunnels are drilled by an outside-in method with minimal incisions. This type of fixation creates a 360° bone contact at 1.5 cm in each tunnel and is compatible with double-bundle reconstruction. This easy-to-use novel technique of fixation for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction produces a strong 4-strand graft while harvesting only the semitendinosus tendon and leaving the gracilis tendon intact to reduce flexion strength loss and preserve rotatory stability of the knee. It creates an immediate solid fixation that is independent of graft integration in the early postoperative period, allowing the patient to start immediate rehabilitation without the use of a brace.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from it
