Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Sports Medicine
  • Knee Biomechanics

Background:

  • Multiple ligament knee injuries (MLKI) are complex, often presenting chronically.
  • Delayed treatment of MLKI necessitates individualized management strategies.
  • A clear classification and treatment algorithm are needed for chronic MLKI.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To differentiate types of chronic MLKI.
  • To propose a management algorithm for chronic MLKI.
  • To guide tailored treatment plans for optimal functional outcomes.

Main Methods:

  • Classification of chronic MLKI into three types based on knee joint status and limb alignment.
  • Type 1: Ligament deficiency, reduced knee, normal alignment.
  • Type 2: Ligament deficiency with malalignment.
  • Type 3: Chronic unreduced knee dislocations.

Main Results:

  • Treatment is type-dependent, prioritizing realignment for Type 2 and reduction for Type 3.
  • Soft-tissue ligament reconstruction is a key component.
  • Individualized approaches are crucial due to injury variability.

Conclusions:

  • A treatment algorithm is essential for managing chronic MLKI.
  • Key steps include joint reduction, limb realignment, and ligament reconstruction.
  • Optimizing functional outcomes requires a systematic, individualized approach.
