Anterior Cruciate Ligament Reconstruction Procedures Using the Iliotibial Band Autograft - 07/10/22
Résumé |
The Micheli anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) procedure is a combined intra-articular and extra-articular knee stabilization technique that combines lateral augmentation with ACL reconstruction using the iliotibial band as an autograft for both aspects of the technique. Its primary indication is for ACL reconstruction in skeletally immature patients with more than 2 years of growth remaining. Studies have shown it to be effective at restoring knee biomechanics to have minimal risk of complications, including those associated with growth disturbances and a relatively low ACL graft rupture rate. Additional studies are needed to better understand the potential utilization of this technique and related modifications in the marginally skeletally immature patient, skeletally mature adolescent, adult, and revision ACL reconstruction settings.
