one plug from the calcaneous and I believe they attach another part of the calcaneous to the more proximal end of the graft. i'll have to double check on that one.

Hmm... weird. So do they cut the tendon in two and then stitch it together so you have two calcaneous ends on each side?

Just saw one article explaining a surgical technique where there was only one end of the tendon with the calcareous inserted into the femoral tunnel while the other was just soft tissue. Just from a quick search so there could be different techniques.
