Abstract

The Double Bundle U-DOS Reverse Technique for posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) tears is a novel arthroscopic technique that combines two well-known procedures: the mono-tunnel approach and the medial-portal approach, provides better posterior stability, improved functional outcomes, and a reduced risk of posterior tibial subluxation. This technique allows for the simultaneous treatment of anterolateral and posteromedial bundles and has been successfully performed on 16 patients, with follow-up showing sufficient support and resistance to posterior tibial subluxation or excessive displacement, resulting in a stable knee joint.
