Anatomic Double Bundle Posterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Using an Internal Splint

Techniques for reconstruction of posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) tears are rapidly evolving. One problem with current techniques is that laxity may develop early in the postoperative period, leading to relapsed posterior translation of the tibia. Therefore, maintaining tibial reduction during graf...

description Techniques for reconstruction of posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) tears are rapidly evolving. One problem with current techniques is that laxity may develop early in the postoperative period, leading to relapsed posterior translation of the tibia. Therefore, maintaining tibial reduction during graft incorporation is a target for improvement. We describe using an internal splint to optimize the 4-tunnel, double-bundle allograft PCL reconstruction.
