KD-III-M and KD-IV Surgery: Superficial Medial Collateral Ligament Reconstruction with Suture Anchors to Reduce Collision Risk
Author(s): Sana Khalid* and Ehtesham
Due to the constrained working space during multi-ligament knee injury surgery, Medial Collateral Ligament (MCL) reconstruction might be difficult. The guiding pin, pulling sutures, reamer, tunnel, implant, and graft of the various ligament reconstructions could collide with one another. In this Technical Note, we describe the methods used by our senior author to reconstruct the cruciate ligament utilizing all-inside methods and the superficial MCL employing suture anchors. By focusing the reconstructive process and implants for MCL fixation on the medial femoral condyle and medial proximal tibia, the approach reduces the danger of collision. .. View More»
