A new technique for posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction

We describe a new technique for arthroscopically assisted posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction. We use the TransFix (Arthrex, Naples, FL) pin to provide a single and strong tibial attachment point for the 4-stranded semitendinosus and gracilis tendons. The TransFix technique for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction has been found to give better initial fixation strength than other techniques using semitendinosus and gracilis grafts, and it provides adequate graft length for secure fixation. Strong and secure graft fixation in knee ligament reconstruction is very important for early and fast rehabilitation.
