Abstract
The keys to successful posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) reconstruction are to identify and treat all pathology, utilize strong graft material, accurately place tunnels in anatomic insertion sites, minimize graft bending, mechanical graft tensioning, secure graft fixation, and the appropriate postoperative rehabilitation program. Adherence to these technical principles results in successful single- and double-bundle arthroscopic transtibial tunnel PCL reconstruction based upon stress radiography, arthrometer, knee ligament rating scales, and patient satisfaction measurements. The purpose of this manuscript is to describe the arthroscopic transtibial tunnel posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction surgical technique.
