“…9,28 They have stated that there is no rigid attachment to the tibia except to the capsule, resulting in limited external rotation so that knee motion cannot be restored with reconstruction using a static graft. 9,28,34 In our study, when the popliteus tendon was not reconstructed, good results were achieved by our method of restoring stability of the posterior translation of the tibia, varus deformity, and external rotation, and this was in agreement with other authors. 9,28,34 From our study, we feel that reconstruction of the lateral ligament and the popliteofibular ligament in posterolateral corner injury in a traumatic knee dislocation will result in good functional stability without reconstruction of the popliteus tendon.…”
