      <study_design>Randomization: Randomized, Blinding: Double blinded, Placebo: Not used, Assignment: Parallel, Purpose: Treatment, Randomization description: Randomization method in the present study: For random assignment of patients to study groups, each eligible patient is assigned a number in the order of inclusion in the study. 
Randomization unit: will be individual
Layers of randomization: Using stratified randomization Patients are randomly placed in different groups and random blocks are used for balance in groups.
The samples are classified according to the center of the class and then in each class with the help of software to generate a random sequence.
Randomization tool: Random numbers according to the number of patients by Excel software
The method of constructing a random sequence is selected one by one
Explanation of allocation concealment: Patients do not know the type of surgery and the person performing the analysis does not know the type of intervention, Blinding description: At the time of obtaining informed consent, patients are explained in an understandable language that they will undergo one or two surgeries in one of two ways. Then a list of random numbers according to the number of patients is prepared by Excel software. This list is then divided into two parts (groups 1 and 2). Each patient will be included in the relevant group according to the number assigned to him / her upon arrival and the envelope with the patient group written on it will be delivered to the relevant doctor. Thus, the patient will not be aware of the type of intervention performed, while the physician will be aware of the type of surgical treatment adopted (double-blind). Random patients are operated on in one of two ways. There is no difference between the two methods in terms of preoperative and postoperative programs. There is no difference between the two methods in terms of pre- and postoperative interventions and the rate of complications. There is no difference between patients in terms of the appearance of organs after surgery. There is no difference in preoperative and postoperative rehabilitation between the two groups. The surgeon is aware of the type of surgery, but in the postoperative period he treats the patients in the same way. The surgeon is aware of the type of surgery, but he treats the patients in the same way in both groups.</study_design>

      <i_freetext>Intervention 1: Intervention group:  Patients with ACL tear who undergo ACL reconstruction surgery in a new way with complete preservation of the hamstring tendons from the distal and separation from the proximal. The hamstring tendons are preserved distally and detached from the proximal to the lower extremity on the same side, and are harvest while the distal attachment of the tendons is attached. It is then reconstructed arthroscopically. And the distal connection of the tendon is fixed with a removable screw. Intervention 2: Control group:  Patients with ACL tear who undergo ACL reconstruction surgery in a new way with complete preservation of the hamstring tendons from the distal and separation from the proximal. The hamstring tendons are preserved distally and detached from the proximal to the lower extremity on the same side, and are harvest while the distal attachment of the tendons is attached. It is then reconstructed arthroscopically. And the distal connection of the tendon is not fixed with a removable screw.</i_freetext>
