“…Shubert et al. 6 described posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using needle arthroscopy, which eliminated the need for 30° and 70° scopes. They reported infrequent reorientation and switching of portals and scopes, which increased operating room efficacy and decreased morbidity to the patient.…”

“…One study [ 12 ] explores patient characteristics and injury profiles, identifying susceptibility factors for complex injuries. Two studies [ 13 , 14 ] present surgical techniques for tibial inlay reconstruction and needle-arthroscopy-assisted arthroscopic PCL reconstruction to improve reproducibility and visualization. Two studies [ 15 , 16 ] discuss the controversy over reconstructive methods for chronic PCL injuries, advocating for nonoperative treatment in most cases, highlighting the rarity of PCL injuries in pediatric populations, and stressing the importance of optimal treatment to preserve knee function.…”

“…The benefits of the minimally invasive approach include smaller incisions, less disturbance of soft tissue, and less pain after surgery, which can result in faster recovery [ 22 ]. Furthermore, arthroscopic procedures improve intraarticular anatomical visualization, helping to achieve more accurate PCL reattachment and identification [ 14 ]. Arthroscopy-assisted graft placement and fixation can result in greater restoration of PCL function and joint stability, reducing the risk of postoperative complications and long-term joint deterioration [ 23 ].…”

Avulsed posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) injuries are complex orthopedic challenges that require careful consideration and optimal management. Arthroscopy offers advantages, including smaller incisions, reduced soft tissue disruption, reduced postoperative pain, and improved visualization of intraarticular anatomy. Arthroscopy-assisted fixation results in superior clinical outcomes. Patient-specific factors, graft choice, and timing of surgery significantly impact outcomes. Rehabilitation is vital and requires a tailored approach to restore knee function. Biomechanically, arthroscopy-assisted fixation enhances joint stability and range of motion, reducing the risk of secondary injuries. Advancements in technology and surgical techniques further improve outcomes. Concomitant injuries and incorporation are essential considerations. Arthroscopy-assisted fixation is a recommended approach, but personalized care is crucial for successful recovery. Its precision in reattaching the PCL enhances joint stability and clinical results, aligning with outcomes seen in conventional procedures. Using biocompatible materials in fixation devices has significantly reduced the risk of allergic reactions or complications. This has allowed a faster and smoother recovery process for patients undergoing arthroscopy-assisted fixation. The incorporation of physical therapy and rehabilitation programs after surgery plays a vital role in restoring joint function and preventing muscle atrophy. The combination of advanced technology, surgical techniques, and personalized care has greatly improved the success rate of arthroscopy-assisted fixation procedures. Advancements in technology further improve patient outcomes, but each case should be individually assessed to determine the most appropriate treatment approach.
