Tibial Tubercle Osteotomy in Total Knee Arthroplasty: Midterm Results Experience of a Monocentric Study

The experience suggests the use of TTO to improve the surgical approach in difficult primary TKA or revision TKA leads to good results with low risk of complications.

Tibial Onlay Posterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction: Surgical Technique and Results

An onlay technique for PCL reconstruction, which has some advantages over the traditional transtibial and over inlay techniques, and avoids the “killer angle” while simultaneously permitting safe retraction of the neurovascular structures without the need for a change in the patient's position is described.

A New Simplified Onlay Technique for Posterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction

A simplified technique for onlay PCL reconstruction is described pointing out possible advantages if compared with the traditional transtibial or inlay techniques.

COMBINED TIBIAL AVULSION OF ANTERIOR AND POSTERIOR CRUCIATE LIGAMENT OF KNEE JOINT: A CASE REPORT

ORIF of PCL fragment in a staged manner has helped to address the injury in a detailed manner achieving goal of anatomical reduction and early mobilization.

Posterior cruciate ligament tibial insertion avulsion, management by open reduction and internal fixation using plate and screws through a direct posterior approach.

Posteromedial Approach to Fix Posterior Cruciate Ligament Tibial Avulsion: A Backup Fixation and Case Series

This approach provides stable fixation with no residual knee laxity and can be used to manage posteromedial fractures of the medial femoral condyle and tibial plateau and was not associated with complications.

The Direct Posterior Approach to the Knee – Surgical and Anatomic Approach

: The direct posterior surgical approach to the knee provides broad exposure of posterior neurovascular structures, the posterior aspect of the femoral condyles and tibial plateau, the posterior…

Short Term Outcome of Fixation of Isolated Avulsion Fractures of Posterior Cruciate Ligament; Case Series

Early operative intervention of isolated posterior cruciate ligament avulsion injuries after open reduction and screw fixation achieves better stability and optimal results with few complications.

Clinical Efficacy of a Modified Posteromedial Oblique Incision in the Treatment of Posterior Cruciate Ligament Tibial Avulsion Fractures: A Single-centre, Single-arm, Prospective Study.

Using POI to treat PCL tibial avulsion fractures is safe and effective, because it avoids nearby nerves and blood vessels, and is worthy of being considered for use and has a great potential for application.

Functional outcome of posterior cruciate ligament avulsion injuries treated with open reduction and cannulated cancellous screw fixation

The PCL avulsion injuries from tibia treated with open reduction and CC screw fixation through the posteromedial approach achieves anatomical reduction, restores PCL tension and prevents posterior translation of tibia.
