Hybrid ACL reconstruction in a 6-year-old female with fibular hemimelia
Fibular hemimelia is a rare congenital malformation that is commonly associated with other lower limb abnormalities. This is a unique case of a bicruciate ligament, anterior cru ciate ligament/posterior cruciate ligament (ACL/PCL) deficiency in a 6-year-old female with fibular hemimelia in which we...

description | Fibular hemimelia is a rare congenital malformation that is commonly associated with other lower limb abnormalities. This is a unique case of a bicruciate ligament, anterior cru ciate ligament/posterior cruciate ligament (ACL/PCL) deficiency in a 6-year-old female with fibular hemimelia in which we describe an ACL reconstruction using autograft–allograft hybrid technique. This case focuses on the technical aspects of an ACL reconstruction using a physeal-sparing technique with a hybrid ACL graft in a pediatric patient with fibular hemimelia. When evaluating patients with fibular hemimelia, it is important to consider implications of treatment in a stepwise manner as this condition commonly presents with other abnormalities that will most likely require multiple procedures, including limb lengthening. |
