Posterolateral Corner of the Knee:Current Concepts
Injuries to the posterolateral corner (PLC) comprise a significant portion of knee ligament injuries. A high index of suspicion is necessary when evaluating the injured knee to detect these sometimes occult injuries. Moreover, a thorough physical examination and a comprehensive review of radiographic studies are necessary to identify these injuries. In this sense, stress radiographs can ...
متن کاملReconstruction of the Posterolateral Corner After Sequential Sectioning Restores Knee Kinematics
BACKGROUND Various surgical techniques to treat posterolateral knee instability have been described. To date, the recommended treatment is an anatomic form of reconstruction in which the 3 key structures of the posterolateral corner (PLC) are addressed: the popliteofibular ligament, the popliteus tendon, and the lateral collateral ligament. PURPOSE/HYPOTHESIS The purpose of this study was to ...
متن کاملProximal tibial opening wedge osteotomy as the initial treatment for chronic posterolateral corner deficiency in the varus knee: a prospective clinical study.
BACKGROUND Nonoperative treatment of posterolateral knee injuries tends to yield poor results. In patients with chronic posterolateral knee injuries, failure to correct genu varus alignment will often result in failure of the posterolateral knee repair or reconstruction. PURPOSE To prospectively assess the functional outcomes of patients with combined grade 3 posterolateral instability and ge...
متن کاملThe posterolateral corner of the knee: repair versus reconstruction.
BACKGROUND Injuries to the posterolateral corner of the knee are disabling. Despite improved understanding of this group of tendons and ligaments, the best surgical treatment of an unstable corner is not clear. HYPOTHESIS Surgical repair of acute tears of the posterolateral corner has outcomes that are as good as those from reconstruction combined with an early motion rehabilitation protocol....
متن کاملInjuries to posterolateral corner of the knee: a comprehensive review from anatomy to surgical treatment☆
Although injuries to the posterolateral corner of the knee were previously considered to be a rare condition, they have been shown to be present in almost 16% of all knee injuries and are responsible for sustained instability and failure of concomitant reconstructions if not properly recognized. Although also once considered to be the "dark side of the knee", increased knowledge of the posterol...
