Surgical ancillary instrument for aiming and drilling of femoral and tibial insertion tunnels of at least one bundle of neo-ligaments for the reconstruction of the anterior opposite ligament of the knee. The instrument includes a handle equipped at one of its ends with a straight rod finishing in a hook perpendicular to the rod serving as a reference for at least one aimer barrel having in relation to the rod predetermined horizontal and vertical directions so as to obtain an alignment of the drilling directions of the tibial and femoral insertion tunnels when the knee is in extension.
