Abstract
Posterolateral corner (PLC) injuries represent a complex injury pattern whose repair is essential for varus and rotational stability of the knee. Several surgical techniques have been described for PLC injuries, which can be divided into 2 main groups: anatomical and nonanatomical. Due to insufficiency of posterior stabilization of nonanatomic procedure, LaPrade represented an anatomical reconstruction. In this Technical Note, we describe and illustrate some modifications in the anatomic reconstruction of the PLC and lateral collateral ligament.
