Abstract

PURPOSE: To develop and evaluate an anatomic reconstruction procedure of the posterolateral and anteromedial bundles of the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL). TYPE OF STUDY: Anatomic study and case series. METHODS: The femoral attachment of the anteromedial and posterolateral bundles of the ACL was anatomically analyzed with 5 cadaveric knees. Using another 3 cadaveric knees, anatomic reconstruction of the posterolateral and anteromedial bundles was performed with the transtibial technique, and tunnel positioning and graft function in a range of knee motion was observed. Based on this anatomic study, an anatomic reconstruction procedure of the anteromedial and posterolateral bundles was developed using hamstring tendon autografts. This procedure was carried out in 57 consecutive patients with an ACL-deficient knee. The patients were followed-up for a minimum of 24 months. RESULTS: We developed the arthroscopically assisted anatomic reconstruction procedure of the posterolateral and anteromedial bundles, involving a new method of creating the tibial and femoral tunnels for the posterolateral bundle. To visualize the femoral attachment of the posterolateral bundle, the medial infrapatellar portal was more useful than the lateral portal. In clinical results, the side-to-side difference of anterior laxity averaged 1.0 mm with a standard deviation of 0.9. CONCLUSIONS: The anatomic reconstruction of the anteromedial and posterolateral bundles using hamstring tendon autografts is clinically practical in the treatment for the ACL-deficient knee. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level IV.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
