Single-Bundle Anatomical Posterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction With Remnant Preservation.

Remnant always exists following injuries of the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL). To improve the clinical outcomes of PCL reconstruction, preservation of the remnant has long been a consideration. However, how to make the remnant-preservation technique simple and more effective is of concern. We describe a single-bundle anatomical PCL reconstruction technique with remnant preservation in which the posteromedial and posterolateral portals are used, the graft is placed at the lateral side of the remnant, and pulleys are used to facilitate graft passage at the 2 killer turns of the grafting routes. We consider introduction of this technique will provide reasonable choices in PCL reconstruction.
