Lateral Collateral Ligament (LCL) and Posterolateral Corner (PLC) Repair

For over a decade, Arthrex has offered multiple collateral ligament reconstruction techniques, ranging from socket and tunnel based aperture fixation with FastThread™ interference screws to suspensory fixation using TightRope® technology.

In cases of avulsion type injuries, a primary LCL/PLC repair may be performed to restore stability while preserving native anatomy. The versatile line of Knee FiberTak® anchors offers various onlay fixation options, utilizing both knotted and knotless SutureTape technology in addition to the InternalBrace™ technique.

The InternalBrace surgical technique is intended only to augment the primary repair/reconstruction by expanding the area of tissue approximation during the healing period and is not intended as a replacement for the native ligament. The InternalBrace technique is for use during soft tissue-to-bone fixation procedures and is not cleared for bone-to-bone fixation.
