The patient is a 42-year-old white female with a torn anterior cruciate ligament, medial meniscus, and anterolateral rotary instability.

Second question is shouldn't this be arthroscopy AND debridement? he doesn't say *and* but that is always how I have heard it. Third question is...is patella tendon graft correct or should it be patellar tendon graft?

I plan on doing an arthroscopy debridement and an anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using patella tendon graft.

Sorry for all the questions, but he is a speed demon today.
