Synopsis: A retrospective, nonrandomized study of arthroscopically assisted PCL-avulsion reattachments in 13 patients (14 knees) are described.Simultaneous posterolateral and posteromedial portals were used to insert ligament sutures (23 gauge wire or multiple sutures) or screw fixation. The primary means for surgically treating a PCL avulsion fracture are open reduction through the direct posterior or posteromedial approach 3 and arthroscopic reduction and internal fixation.

An adjustable-length loop device is relayed from the posteromedial portal and pulled out through the fragment in an anterograde fashion, placing a button on top of the fragment. These techniques include the use of various fixation devices such as screws, K-wires, wiring, sutures, and suture anchors. 0000050102 00000 n present a novel surgical approach for isolated PCL avulsion fractures consisting of an arthroscopic tech-nique using the TightRope device. In this study, we evaluate a new wiring technique for the treatment of these injuries. After arthroscopic exploration and reduction of the bony fragment, a single tibia tunnel was established; then, the titanium button was guided through the tunnel and flipped onto the bony fragment to stabilize the fracture. Most authors suggest that displaced PCL avulsion fractures should undergo operative fixation and current data suggests excellent outcomes when treating these patients with either open or arthroscopic fixation, with a low complication rate. 0000004444 00000 n ���+P�s�f�u�ؠM��I�� wJ��z���|xӽ��d�׭G��Z�Ia��I�o�%&N��>���6�P��FH/���>�����]GS����l@��]�U��a���I���u��Q��� �-�Y���V��$�R��Ļw�7R,j�g�e��B�>�z�b ���*ʨK��ڤ^J���q�X{�+#�k��в2C����01|(=��X��ta@ The purpose of this technical note is to present a novel all-inside arthroscopic reconstruction technique for bony tibial avulsion fractures of the posterior cruciate ligament … 0000042292 00000 n h�b``� �X6���� cg`a����(����X��~��#��Ldzs�6�L"��Z�d��ynn��w��R � KKK� [�t� ��8?�Ү@��f`�a�d�Ĩ�������tH�D�Db�����D�zF�(�LF�J�%Ok%˜��53h3���0|d For instance, Huang et al. h�bb�f`b``Ń3� ����C;> d�� Arthroscopy.
