Arthroscopic/Anatomical Posterolateral Corner Reconstruction
Description
In a detailed presentation, Mohamed Aboelnour Badran from Mansoura, Egypt, discusses the Arthroscopic Anatomical Posterolateral Corner Reconstruction. He begins by expressing gratitude to the committee and introduces the topics that will be covered, focusing on anatomical aspects and surgical techniques. He emphasizes the importance of understanding knee anatomy, providing in-depth descriptions of key structures such as the popliteus tendon, lateral collateral ligament, and their relationships.
Badran contrasts different reconstruction techniques, outlining the inadequacies of some traditional methods, particularly the fibular-based reconstruction, compared to the more anatomical approach. He presents two notable techniques, comparing their biomechanical performance and outcomes. Throughout the presentation, Badran illustrates his points with clear visual references to anatomy and surgical procedures, detailing the creation of portals and tunnels needed for reconstruction.
He explains how graft placement is performed through designated tunnels in the fibula and tibia, highlighting the importance of creating a precise surgical pathway to ensure effective stabilization of the knee joint. Badran concludes the presentation by sharing his experience and results over four years, stressing the significance of proper anatomical understanding for successful outcomes in both open and arthroscopic repairs.
