Derrick Rose underwent surgery Saturday at Rush University Medical Center to repair his torn anterior cruciate ligament in his left knee. The procedure was performed by Chicago Bulls team physician Dr. Brian Cole.
Dr. Cole used a graft from Rose's patellar tendon to repair the injury, and the sports medicine community now seems split on whether that sort of graft is the best method to repair torn ACLs in athletes.
Patellar grafts have been used to repair torn anterior cruciate ligaments for years, but now, some medical professionals have adopted a method using grafts from the hamstring and consider the patellar method antiquated.
Dr. Cole commented on Rose's anteromedial believing it was one of a kind, "His antero was mutated-like, it's if it were repairing itself, something I've never come across in a visceral tear. I've read studies of a Ga-Adangbe gene (West African) that had showings of advanced-tissue reparation, but I've never witnessed it in person until now. It was near the stage of completely new, we just sped up the process with a tendon graft."
