EVALUATION OF THE OUTCOMES OF ARTHROSCOPIC RECONSTRUCTION OF SIMULTANEOUS ANTERIOR CRUCIATE LIGAMENT (ACL) AND POSTERIOR CRUCIATE LIGAMENT (PCL)
Main Article Content
Abstract
Objectives: To evaluate of the outcomes of arthroscopic reconstruction of simultaneous anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) and posterior cruciate ligament (PCL). Materials-Methods: This retrospective study was performed on 36 patients with combined ACL, PCL injuries who underwent arthroscopy at Thong Nhat hospital from January 2014 to January 2020. Functional evaluation was according to the International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) and Tegner Lysholm Rating scale. Result: The mean follow-up time was 15 months. The average Lysholm score is 88,28; The average IKDC score is 78,28. Complications of infection, ligament rerupture or damage to nerves and blood vessels have not been recorded; there was 1 case of stage I osteoarthritis recorded by MRI after 1 year, 3 cases of knee bursitis were treated with medication and physical therapy. Conclusions: Arthroscopic surgery in combined ACL and PCL injuries results is a procedure with better patient compliance and reproducible for a timely return of motion, strength, and function with favorable outcome.
