MCL repair vs reconstruction
• Dong, Arthroscopy, 2015 – Level 2 study – Better objective results with reconstruction, similar subjective
scores
• Wijdicks, AJSM, 2013
– Anatomic, biomechanical study – Equivalent results between “anatomic” repair and reconstruction
• Bottom line: No high-level evidence to support
reconstruction over repair. However, many surgeons prefer repair for acute avulsions; reconstruction favored over repair in sub-acute and chronic situation

– direct blow to proximal tibia (helmet, dashboard)
– Hyperextension
– Hyperflexion
• Can go undiagnosed for years
• Often not as dramatic or symptomatic as an ACL tear

PCL: exam
• ISOLATED PCL INJURY
– FROM; ABLE TO SLR – MAY HAVE PAIN WITH HYPEREXTENSION – LOOK FOR POSTERIOR SAG IN THE FLEXED
KNEE – + POSTERIOR DRAWER
– DON’T GET FOOLED BY “FALSE LACHMANS”
OR “FALSE ANTERIOR DRAWER”
– SHOULD NOT HAVE VARUS/VALGUS INSTABLITY
– CHECK ROTATION WITH DRAWER TESTING
(ALWAYS!) AND WITH SUPINE AND PRONE DIAL TEST

ACL Re-Injury
• Not uncommon to have repeat ipsilateral or contralateral ACL injury
• Rates vary from 5-30% • Allograft much higher (~4x) risk of re-injury • Highest risk is in Young, Active, Female, cutting/pivoting sport
athletes

ACLR: Double Bundle vs Single Bundle
• Mayr, Arthroscopy, 2018 – Prospective, RCT – Level I – 53 patients; 5 year f/u – Findings:
• No difference in Subjective or Objective scores • No difference in Osteoarthritis at 5 years
• Most similar studies agree--- a few show more
objective stability with DB, but no difference in subjective scores

Anterolateral Ligament
• ALL: Capsular expansion that runs from the lateral epicondyle to lateral tibial plateau
• Early descriptions including by Segond, 1879
• May play a role in rotatory instability, pivot shift
• ALL reconstruction in combination with ACLR now advocated by some

ALL “Expert Group” Consensus Paper, J Orthopaedic Traumatology, 2017
• Anatomic:
– The ALL is a distinct ligament – ALL in males 2x as thick as females!
• Biomechanical: – ALL is a Secondary stabilizer to internal tibial rotation and pivot shift
• Clinical: – ACL+ALL may have increased pivot shift, but confounding factors (meniscus,
increased tibial slope) not accounted for in studies
• Conclusions: ALL reconstruction or tenodesis during ACLR have NOT been shown to improve clinical outcomes or decrease ACL re-tear rates [but may be considered in some highly unstable, ligamentously lax re-tears]
• LEVEL V Opinion Paper
• “Expert Group”: 13 international surgeons, *8 paid consultants

ACL repair with “Suture Augmentation”
• aka “Internal Bracing” or “Bridge Enhanced ACL” • Early results: 53% re-injury rate at 5yrs f/u
• Feagin, CORR, 1996
• More recently: – van Eck, AJSM, 2017; Systematic Review of poor quality studies – Suture or scaffold used to repair ACL; biologics added
– Data scant, but:
• Braided suture > Monofilament • Early > Late repair • Skeletally immature > Mature • Proximal avulsions > Mid-substance

ACL REPAIR
• Perrone, J Orthop Res 2017 – “Bridge-enhanced” ACL repair (BEAR) with collagen scaffold
and whole blood
– Porcine model, shows equivalent biomechanical results vs autograft!
– Human trial has now begun!!
• Gagliardi, AJSM 2019 – Level III retrospective study, comparing ACL suture ligament
augmentation (SLA) [of proximal avulsions] vs QTB autograft
– Adolescents
– 49% FAILURE RATE FOR SLA vs 4.7% for QTB

Multiligamentous Knee Injury
• Can dislocate with only one cruciate torn, but typcially multiple ligaments torn
• Can be High-, Low- or Ultra Low-Velocity
• High incidence of Peroneal Nerve Injury (~25%)
• High incidence of Popliteal Artery injury (10-30%)
