Abstract
Medial collateral ligament tears usually will be treated through non-surgical methods, but, in some cases such as those with tears at the distal insertion where the reduction could be blocked by the pes anserine tendons (Stener-like lesion), surgery will be performed. Here, we present a surgical technique in such cases. In this retrospective case series, we describe six patients diagnosed with Stener-like lesion based on clinical evaluation and imaging results. In the one-year follow-up visit, there was no complaining of pain or joint instability and full range of motion and negative valgus stress test were reported in all cases. The results showed this surgical technique is a useful and safe treatment approach in such cases.
