ABSTRACT
Recently, the anterolateral ligament has gained attention in knee surgery for its ability to improve rotational stability in ACL reconstructions. However, the lateral extra-articular tenodesis (LET) procedure, which involves creating a femoral tunnel using the modified Lemaire technique, presents a risk of overlapping with the femoral tunnel used in the ACL reconstruction. This can lead to complications and limit the success of the surgery. To avoid these issues without needing additional fixation, we describe an easily reproducible surgical technique in which a single femoral tunnel is shared for both ACL reconstruction and LET using the iliotibial tract
RESUMEN
Recientemente, el ligamento anterolateral ha ganado atención en la cirugía de rodilla por su capacidad para mejorar la estabilidad rotacional en las reconstrucciones del LCA. Sin embargo, el procedimiento de tenodesis lateral extraarticular (TLE), que implica la creación de un túnel femoral utilizando la técnica modificada de Lemaire, presenta un riesgo de solapamiento con el túnel femoral utilizado en la reconstrucción del LCA. Esto puede provocar complicaciones y limitar el éxito de la cirugía. Para evitar estos problemas, sin necesidad de una fijación adicional, describimos una técnica quirúrgica fácilmente reproducible en la que se comparte un solo túnel femoral tanto para la reconstrucción del LCA como para LET utilizando el tracto iliotibial
