ABSTRACT
Graft failure is a challenging complication following anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACL-R). Among the multiple anatomic and nonanatomic risk factors contributing to ACL-R failure, there is accumulating evidence that a posterior tibial slope of 12° or greater may predispose patients to graft failure of primary and revision ACL-R. In addition, previously malpositioned or widened tunnels, as well as limited autograft options, pose challenges in the setting of revision ACL-R. This Technical Note describes a technique to correct an increased posterior tibial slope using slope-reducing high tibial osteotomy, and single stage revision ACL-R with Achilles tendon allograft using the over-the-top route, in a single-stage procedure. The surgical technique involves an anterior approach to the proximal tibia, followed by tibial tubercle osteotomy and anterior closing-wedge osteotomy. The posterior cortical osteotomy hinge is left intact below the insertion of the posterior cruciate ligament. Over-the-top revision ACL-R is then performed using an Achilles tendon allograft passed around the posterior aspect of the lateral femoral condyle and fixed onto the lateral femur.
