Femoral ACL tunnel aperture location expressed as percentage along the line perpendicular to the Blumensaat’s line (%DP) in relation to degree of rotation for various rotation types. For valgus rotation, P values were significant (P < 0.05) only for compared degrees - ‘0 vs 10’, ‘0 vs 15’, ‘0 vs 20’, and ‘5 vs 15’. For varus rotation, P values were not significant (P > 0.05) for all pair-wise comparisons. For external rotation, P values were significant (P < 0.05) only for compared degrees - ‘0 vs 10’, ‘0 vs 15’, ‘0 vs 20’, ‘5 vs 15’, and ‘5 vs 20’. For internal rotation, P values were significant (P < 0.05) only for compared degrees – ‘0 vs 10’, ‘0 vs 15’, ‘0 vs 20’, ‘5 vs 10’, and ‘5 vs 15’
