X-Shaped Knot Fixation and Double Posteromedial Portals for the Treatment of Posterior Cruciate Ligament Tibial Avulsion Fractures With Retention of the Posterior Septum

Posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) avulsion fractures at the tibial attachment site are managed using various techniques. Some surgeries involve internal fixation with an adjustable double-loop plate, anterior-to-posterior suture suspension fixation, hollow lag screw fixation, and steel wire fixation. In this case, an X-shaped knot and double posteromedial portals are used to retain the posterior septum for fixation. In this technique, we describe double posteromedial portals are used in this method. The internal joint is fixed with an X-shaped knot, and the external joint is fixed with SwiveLock, which puts the wire belt binding PCL compression bone block in a perfect tension state. This surgical technique can achieve a sound functional reduction. [Display omitted]
