Posterior Cruciate Ligament (PCL) Repair

A technique gaining popularity, PCL repair is generally indicated for bony avulsions, which almost always occur off the tibia. PCL injuries can happen during sports-related activities or high-velocity, traumatic accidents. Applications for operative treatment of PCL tears include acute injuries, tears in active young patients, and either isolated Grade 3 tears or a combined injury, such as Grade 2 tears with posterolateral corner instability.

PCL tears can be treated with innovative, minimally invasive procedures using the PCL Repair Tightrope® implant and FiberRing™ sutures.
