OBJECTIVE To probe the clinical results of a new designed operation-double semitendinous reconstruction of posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) with invasive mini-plate. METHODS The new surgical technique was performed on 28 patients with PCL deficient knee in our department from September 1994 to October 1997. Protection of popliteal nerves and blood vessels was emphasized in the operation, and the femoral and tibial tunnel placement was critical to the procedure’s success. RESULTS All patients were followed up 18 to 36 months, averaged 22 months, they gained stable knees. The knee function of 28 patients recovered to normal after the operation, 1 patients had a small range of limitation of the knee flexion, but no obvious dysfunction. CONCLUSION Double semitendinous reconstruction of PCL with invasive mini-plate has advantages in the operated field exposure, adequate tibial and femoral fixation and excellent results in motion, stability and function of the knee after the operation.
