Arthroscopic All-Inside Posterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction: Overcoming the “Killer Turn”

open access: yesArthroscopy Techniques, 2016
One of the most challenging arthroscopic surgical procedures is posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) reconstruction. PCL injuries account for 20% of all knee ligament–related injuries. These may be isolated or occur as part of poly-ligament injuries.
