Reconstruction of the Medial Collateral Ligament Complex With a Flat Allograft Semitendinosus Tendon

The aim of this Technical Note is to reconstruct the medial collateral ligament complex with the superior medial collateral ligament and posterior oblique ligament as anatomically as possible. An allograft or contralateral semitendinosus autograft is used for anatomic reconstruction of the superior medial collateral ligament and posterior oblique ligament. After bony fixation, the tendon bundles are sutured to the remnants of the medial collateral ligament complex. Thus, the tubular grafts are pulled apart to form a flat shape that resembles that of the normal medial ligaments.
