关节镜下双套环技术治疗后十字韧带胫骨止点撕脱性骨折

Objective To investigate the feasibility and clinical effects of the pair ringer technology for bony avulsion of the posterior cruciate ligament under arthroscopy. Methods From January 2005 to July 2009, 23 patients were treated with the pair ringer technology for bony avulsion of the posterior cruciate ligament by arthroscopy. There were 15 male and 8 female, with an average of 39.3 years (ranging from 28 to 52 years). There were 4 cases of type Ⅱ, 14 type Ⅲ, and 5 type Ⅳ according to Meyer-Mckeever classification. The outcome measures were X-ray and MRI testing, Lysholm and Tegner knee function score. Results All the operations were finished in an hour. There were no complications as nerve injury or infection occurred in the study. The patients were followed-up for an average of 16.5 months (12-23 months). The Lysholm score rose from 50.3±6.1 preoperatively to 89.7±8.3 at the six months postoperatively (t=18.34, P=0.0007). The Tegner score rose from 1.7±0.5 preoperatively to 5.7±1.3 at the six months postoperatively (t=13.77,P=0.0008). All of the patients recover a functionally stable knee and have considerably improved knee function compared with their preoperative status. Conclusion The pair ringer technology under arthroscopy is a liable method for bony avulsion of the posterior cruciate ligament. This minimally invasive technology leads to rigid fixation, early rehabilitation.
