Zusammenfassung: | To assess the clinical efficacy of arthroscopic treatment for posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) tibial avulsion fractures using high-intensity suture binding combined with button plate suspension fixation.
We retrospectively analyzed clinical data from 32 patients with PCL tibial avulsion fractures treated at our hospital from July 2020 to August 2023. We recorded operation time, intraoperative and postoperative complications, and used imaging to assess fracture reduction and healing. Pain and knee function were evaluated using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS), range of knee motion, Lysholm score, and International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) score.
Case series; Level of evidence, 4.
All patients were followed for 6 to 18 months, averaging 13.6 months. All incisions healed successfully without postoperative complications. X-rays taken on the first postoperative day showed satisfactory fracture reduction. Three-month post-surgery imaging confirmed healed fractures and no internal fixation failures. At the final follow-up, knee function was well recovered, with only one patient exhibiting a positive posterior drawer test of degree I. Furthermore, the mean VAS score was 0. 5 (range 0.0 to 1.0), active knee extension was 2. 2° (range 0.0 to 5.0), and active knee flexion was 137.7° (range 130.0 to 145.0). The mean Lysholm score was 91.5(range 89.3 to 94.0), and the IKDC score averaged 83.8 ± 3.7, and these outcomes showed statistically significant improvement from preoperative levels (P |
