Posterior Cruciate Ligament (PCL) Repair
A technique gaining popularity, PCL repair is generally indicated for bony avulsions that can occur on either the femur or 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.
