Description
Summary:To investigate the clinical efficacy and knee joint kinematic changes of posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) reconstruction assisted by Chinese knotting technique (CKT). A retrospective analysis was conducted on 88 cases of PCL reconstructive surgery admitted between September 2016 and September 2020. All patients were operated on by the same senior doctor and his team. The patients were divided into 2 groups according to whether the CKT was applied, with 44 cases in each group. Both groups received active rehabilitation treatment after surgery. All patients were followed up for more than 2 years. International knee documentation committee, hospital for special surgery (HSS), and Lysholm scores were used to evaluate the clinical efficacy of the 2 methods at 3, 12, and 24 months after surgery. The motion cycle and kinematic indices of the knee joint were measured by the Opti_Knee three-dimensional motion measurement system before surgery and at 3, 12, and 24 months after surgery. A secondary arthroscopic examination was performed at 12 months after surgery, MAS score was used to evaluate the secondary endoscopic examination of PCL. All the patients had wound healing in stage I without infection. International Knee in both sets Documentation Committee scores, HSS scores and Lysholm scores were gradually improved at all time points (P
