Abstract
The deep medial collateral ligament plays an important role in controlling tibial external rotation and restrain anterior translation of the medial tibial plateau. Despite being the basic lesion of anteromedial knee instability as proposed by many authors, the majority of the medial side reconstructions do not restore the anatomy and the function of the deep medial collateral ligament. In this Technical Note, we describe a technique to reconstruct both the superficial and deep medial collateral ligament in the setting of anteromedial knee instability using a single peroneus longus autograft.
