Concomitant Reconstruction of Anterior Cruciate Ligament and Medial Collateral Ligament Surgical procedure and clinical outcomes

Abstract:

The purpose of this paper was to evaluate the postoperative clinical outcomes of combined anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and medial collateral ligament (MCL) reconstruction and to briefly describe the surgical procedure. The current study is a retrospective observational analysis, which included 12 patients with acute ACL and grade III MCL injuries. Combined ACL-MCL reconstruction was performed using bone-tendon-bone patellar autograft and semitendinosus and gracilis autograft, respectively. Preoperative and postoperative assessments were performed for each patient using the same protocol. Combined ACL-MCL reconstruction is associated with improved postoperative results. No recurrent knee instability was reported at the end of follow-up period. In conclusion, acute ACL and grade III MCL injuries can be successfully treated by combined ACL-MCL reconstruction, which is an effective option for the treatment of these patients, associated with good clinical results.
