Abstract:
Objective To study the diagnosis and treatment of multiple-ligament injury to the knee and report the clinical outcomes of the disease.Methods A total of 51 patients with multiple-ligament tear in the knee were enrolled in this study.The lesion involved the ACL and MCL in 21 cases,ACL and PLC in 1,PCL and MCL in 4,PCL and PLC in 6,ACL,PCL,and MCL in 6,ACL,PCL,and PLC in 3,ACL and PCL in 8,and PCL and patella tendon in 2.Among the patients,14 patients had acute Ⅲ grade MCL tear and 3 had acute Ⅲ grade PLC injury;open suture repair were performed on these cases,and then arthroscopic surgery was carried out for other injured ligaments after 3-week immobilization.For 2 patients who had chronic Ⅲ grade MCL injury and 3 cases that were suffering from chronic Ⅲ grade PLC tear,open surgery for ligament reconstruction was employed,arthroscopy were used afterwards to remodel the ACL and PCL.In the 51 patients,totally 39 ACLs were injured,20 of these ligaments were reconstructed under a arthroscope using Hamstring tendon,17 were repaired with BPB by arthroscopy,and 2 were remodelled by implanting allogeneic tendons.In addition,29 PCLs tear were diagnosed,among which arthroscopic PCL reconstruction with autologous Hamstring tendon was performed on 19,allogeneic ligaments were used in 2,and the other 8 injured PCL were not repaied surgically because the lesion was relieved after immobilization(improved from grade Ⅲ to
