Abstract
The lateral collateral ligament complex of the elbow is pivotal for maintaining the stability of the elbow joint. The open technique for reconstructing the lateral ulnar collateral ligament (LUCL) is a standard procedure to treat elbow instability caused by LUCL deficiency. Nevertheless, as arthroscopy procedures in the elbow have advanced, we describe an arthroscopic technique to reconstruct the LUCL with suture anchors and bone tunnel techniques.
