Kombinierte Plastik des vorderen Kreuzbandes mit gestieltem Periostlappen und Kutisstreifen

In view of the increasing incidence of injuries to the knee ligament and the persisting problems associated with the substitution of the cruciate ligament, a new combined reconstruction of the anterior cruciate ligament is presented which is performed with a pedicle periosteous flap and a cutaneous stripe. The advantages of the technically simple method using mechanically and biologically valuable substitutes are discussed.
