The purpose of this study was to evaluate the number of accessory bands of hamstring tendons of female subjects and find if there is any statistical relationship of the distance of gracilis and semitendinosus tendons from the tendons tibial crest insertion and total tendon length of gracilis and semitendinosus tendons. Patients and Methods: 55 knees of female Chinese patients with ACL deficiency were included. The number of accessory bands and the distance of the most distal band from the tendon’s tibial crest insertion were recorded intraoperatively. Results: In our study 38 accessory bands of gracilis tendons and 9 accessory bands of semitendinosus tendons were absent. Patients with shorter, lighter and lower BMI, tended to have less number of accessory bands. Gracilis tendons showed the biggest anatomical variability and none of the gracilis tendons had accessory band 3. Conclusions: We hope our study could make easier in the approach of harvesting of tendons during arthroscopic ACL surgery, mainly in those cases in which the female patients and hamstring tendons are the option of choice. We make sure that accessory bands of hamstring tendon do not originate at a distance of more than 11cm from the tendons tibial crest insertion.
