Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the clinical outcomes of arthroscopically assisted combined anterior and posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction, with an implant fixation of combined press-fit technique of hamstrings tendon knot and bone bolt. Methods 15 cases of combined injury of anterior and posterior cruciate ligament were reconstructed under arthroscopy. There were 10 males and 5 females, and the average age of patients was 23 years ranging from 19 to 31 years. 9 left knees and 6 right knees were involved. A hamstring was taken by standard procedure with a stripper, and pretension was performed on the harvested tendons; a bone bolt was inserted into the tendon to form a tendon knot. The bottle-neck shaped tunnel was prepared by stepping drill at the femoral side, the tendon knot and bone bolt was pulled inside of femoral tunnel, and then out of the tibial tunnel. Repeating the full extension and flexion of the knee joint for 20 times, and then the weaving suture of tendons was brought to pass underneath of tibial bridge and tightened together. Results The patients were evaluated by Lysholm knee functional scales, the average knee score were 61.5?4.6 and 92.5?3.7 respectively before and after operation, and the difference was of statistical significance(P
